  Jayne Pocock (@jayne_pocock) reported 2 minutes ago from Basildon, England

  @HSBC_UK can anyone explain why my global account atm card doesn’t work, can’t be read by HSBC arms or used to purchase goods? Interestingly my husband has the exact same issue. Apparently I@must call the global account helpdesk which only operates Mon-Fri 8am - 6pm………..

  @HSBC_UK Yes. The issue is resolved I was happy to update the same here. But you know what, same happened for the transaction on 5th December 2022. As per my understanding, based on previous experience the new one will not be resolved for another 1 month. @HSBC_UK worst experience

  @HSBC_UK Then may be we can escalate to the financial ombudsman or someone with authority. I hope your team is aware that your app showing 72hrs deadline for transaction done through Global money account and HSBC mobile app. If it's a Glitch please update the deadline.

  @GrahamBoylan @HSBC_UK We've had the same problem mate! A comedy of errors with them. Have wasted almost 2 full days on hold to them too over the past 3 months

  @HSBC_UK Called customer support on 25-11-2022. You executive said I will get a call back on 26-11-2022 and your team will mail me the Swift copy for the transaction I done with global account. No call back and no Swift copy yet. Chat support will take 1 hr (MOBA says so).

  @HSBC_UK is it really necessary to be kept on hold for nearly 90 minutes to support an elderly and disabled gentleman to make a simple payment? Completely unhelpful.

  @HSBC_UK Your executive who was handling this situation made things terrible. But I like to express my happiness for those people supported from the 25th over call and chat support. You took some time to resolve it, but I am happy we finally settled!!! Thankyou!!!1

  @HSBC_UK having trouble logging onto to my internet banking. Is the system down?

• 
  Justin Joy (@Justin_M_Joy) reported 58 minutes ago from Chelmsford, England

  @HSBC_UK Really I should look for some other banks to work with? Minimum 22 minutes to talk to @HSBC_UK customer care executive looooong waiting line. No more transaction with your un regularised unstructured Global money account who cannot provide me a Swift copy as per your policy

  Andrew Blumson (@Andrew_Blumson) reported 4 minutes ago

  @HSBC_UK I'm a new Premier Account and World Elite customer - not a very good experience so far. Messed around on the phone, transferred to the wrong department, rude person on the phone who basically hung up on me. Not a great start!!!

• 
  H-D (@HDGauvin) reported 7 minutes ago

  @ricci_kitchen @HSBC_UK @HSBC_UK 1hr 8 mins now, at this time of the morning, I guess it can only be a technical glitch driving this kind of call volume.

• 
  Thomas Thorburn (@ThomasThorburn) reported 8 minutes ago

  @HSBC_UK I am a Premier account holder, have had my phone and wallet stolen in Portugal, service offered by Aviva is woeful, unable to get through, told that coverage is actually much lower than advertised, with a month wait. Stranded here for a week more no phone bank cards etc

• 
  Sir FAFO (@TheDevilsDev) reported 8 minutes ago

  @HSBC @HSBC_UK at it again, just had a cancelled subscription taken from my "frozen/locked" card. Absolute piece of **** of a bank, and support even said they weren't authorised.

• 
  Andrew Hill (@AndrewRHill7) reported 9 minutes ago

  @HSBC_UK how do I speak to a person about accessing my online banking outside of the 8pm cut off (surely 24 hour support is available at a bank as big as HSBC)?

• 
  T Bolts (@Marathon_Tardis) reported 12 minutes ago

  @HSBC_UK been with you 2 days. Most infuriating customer service contact systems ever.

• 
  Manda 🇵🇸 🍀 (@mandacfc) reported 13 minutes ago

  @HSBC_UK I am not willing to respond privately. I have wasted a month of my life trying to get help from you. I am in process of removing every client from your business. It is shocking the service I have received

  The mobile app support team isn't helping saying they don't have further access. @HSBC_UK

  Shirley (@SJacks61) reported 17 minutes ago

  My husband died. The administration is difficult at the best of times (and these are my worst of time) but @santanderuk has been superb and @HSBC_UK absolutely awful - they could learn so much from Santander.

  White Apathy (@fundcruncher) reported 18 minutes ago

  @HSBC_UK I can't use private messaging on this website, I don't use the X app. The HSBC app clearly says "Sorry, there was a problem on our end" The problem is not with me, it's on your end. It's still there.
