Original review Feb 24, 2024

When i applied for one of there low interest credit cards, It was approve within minutes , But there was a problem in recieving the card, 3 weeks went buy and i never got the card from them yet, In the mail. I phone there customer service in Canada, The person i talk to said , There was no account showing for me in there system .

I told the person, I have a email from you people, On my laptop here , Showing it was approved, For a $4000.00 limit, And also i have a email message from you that has the card number , For the card that i am suppose to be recieving from you, Then i am put on hold, For over 45 minutes While the person is checking out with a different department, If the card was sent out, When they come back on the phone she tellsl me a card was sent out to me, But being that i din,t recieve it, They will send out a new one, A month went buy , Again i never recieve the card, I phoned them again, Was told they will send one to me Rush b uy courior, It will take 3 to 5 days , To get it, But there will be , A $25.00 charge for it, I told the person , I was talking to, There is no way i will pay them, When the problem , Is on there end, They agreed to drop the charge, But changing the subject here , Once i recieved the card , Then the problems get worse with them , I acctivated the card, Right after doing that , I head out to the bank, To try and get a cash advance, From the AtM , I could not get one, A mesage was showing on the ATM screen, The pasword was not reconized, I went and told the manager what was going on, He told me they have nothing to do with the credit cards, I have to get a hold of customer service, When i get home, I call there customer service office, The person i talked to told me to go back to the bank, They will be able to change the pasword for me, I told her, They told me , They have nothing to do with the credit cards, She keeps on telling me i have , To go to the bank , Because i don,t have a cell phone, That they can text me a code on, To verifry myself. She would not listen to what i was trying to tell her about being at the bank, And talking to the manger , They only have one branch where i live, And just like the customer service office, No one working there , Has a friggen clue, On what there doing at all, I have had nothing but problems with them , Since i got the card, and every time there is a problem , I phone the customer service office, I am told the same crap , All the time, They can,t do anything about it, Being that i don,t have a cell phone, To be verified with.

I have told the person ,That i am talking to, To me this is dissimanating against low income earners , That can,t afford to have a cell phone , Espechally most of the senior citizens , Or even some younger people that don,t have a cell phone , These companies that are doing that, The people need to relize, That not every one can afford to have a dam cell phone , Now a days , And get with the times, Espeshally since the covid epademic, They are one of the most dissorganized organizations , That i ever delt with, It is amazing ,That they have any customers, Left at all.Even though that they were bought out buy RBC, I have contacted RBC also. They are no better then HSBC, Of what i found out this week, When talking with 2 of there people in the customer support office, Over the phone , They have to same BS policy as HSBC, About you have to have a cell phone, To recieve a text code from them, That you can be verified buy them, What friggen *** They tell people the reason for doing that is because of scammers and hackers, Trying to get personel info on you, Of what i found out , From reviews on the net, All these hacker , No how to get past the verifacation process, And i no from exprieirance they are able to do it, Because of what happen to me when i tried to signup to face book, And a cuple of dating site, That you need a cell phone, In order to be verified, This is total fing joke, Any good hacker will break in to your account, Even if it has to be verified,

The rep can do it the old fashioned way and mail you a pin in the US mail.

You claim to be low income yet you got a low interest credit card with a $4000 limit? How does that happen?

The only $25 you state is the expedited delivery fee. You say they dropped it but you are claiming a $25 loss.

And you need to stop with the discrimination claim. It is insulting to those that actually do suffer from it.

Overall service and experience has been frustrating

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
HSBC has been my most unpleasant banking experience. They are constantly changing their security measures, but they only service as an inconvenience to the customer. Using your birthday to log in, needing to carry and extra device that they provide that generates security code when you go to an ATM or log in online. The ridiculous banking fees, the severely out dated phone app, Call in customer service is a roll of the dice if you will get a knowledgeable rep. I added my fiancé to my account and the rep at the bank harassed her about a document by call her cell phone, sending an email and calling her employer. I'm closing this account the first chance I get.

Holding my home hostage

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
HFC/HSBC are holding up the sell my home in Michigan. I have been trying to find a number to someone that might be able to explain to me who can give me any information about a lien they have on my house but all I get is the run around. All I'm looking for is either a letter of payoff or the release of the lien on our home and they can't even tell me who they sold my loan to. In the meantime we are suffering from the lack of understanding that this IS NOT A GAME, and if they would have just gone along with Obama's mortgage restructuring they would still be operating in the United States, but no they cut loose and left the country and in the meantime there are 1000's of homeowners going through the same crap I'm currently going through. If there is anyone out there that can help me with this urgent matter any and all information you can supply would be greatly appreciated. Any ex-employees are welcome to add your comments as well.
