  Ade (@Bubwal) reported 10 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  @firstdirecthelp moving to debit m/Card is a bad idea until you can offer the full service to pay cash in. You ever tried paying in cash at @HSBC_UK counter? You literally have to argue with staff who try and force you to pay in via the deposit machine as it is.

  @HSBC_UK is your mobile banking down? Error message, can’t log in this morning.

  @ermitjustis @HSBC_UK @firstdirect You’re kidding! All my cards (including HSBC ones) have now changed to this new style. Does that mean I can’t pay in ANY cash? Counter service seems to be a thing of the past.

  @HSBC_UK Hi, I need a new card reader pin number and haven’t been able to get through on the number for the past week! Any chance you could help please?

  Hi @HSBC_UK Been on the phone for almost 1.5 hours trying to get through to customer services and been cut off every single time whilst being transferred. This is so frustrating when counter services are being closed and online/telephone banking remain the only options

  @ricci_kitchen @HSBC_UK I had the same email - I wonder if it’s a glitch.

  @HSBC_UK Still cannot access my business funds and cannot operate as a business. Back end issue for everyone who switched over from Kinetic (which was all sorted over a week ago) but now cannot access the account.

  @andyward1964 @HSBC_UK Same issue.

  Diane Hackney (@dithespy50) reported 5 minutes ago

  @HSBC_UK You don't know what my repeated bad experiences are so how can you apologise for them? The same problem happened in April, May & today. I was told in May the problem has been resolved but it hasn't. Repeatedly denying me access to my own money because of your errors is disgusting

  @Archiemurp @HSBC_UK Oh ****, didn’t know they do this 🫣

  TS (@PZR311067) reported 6 minutes ago

  @HSBC_UK @rosieerooo22 Same with us, a/c upgrade on joint account, did 5 Hard searches each on our credit file because you upgraded to wrong account, and to fix it you did more, complaints team a joke, now with FOS to sort as in one go you have destroyed a perfect credit rating.

  @HSBC_UK Help. Please clarify the terms of an on line bonus savings account

  Mark (@MorganMF9867) reported 10 minutes ago

  @HSBC_UK dreadful combative approach by complaints handler Monica. You get my tax status incorrect, as I'm only the POA on my brother's account, then blame me for your error. It's taken since Oct 2025 to get here. Help @financialombuds

  Ruth Anders (@987Anders) reported 10 minutes ago

  @HSBC_UK please contact me re : poor customer service. Advisors having to " follow the script ", unable to speak on behalf of my 91 year old parent, no knowledge about how the only remaining local branch operates. A frustrating 40 minute call.
