low or no charges rewards for credit card purchases but no branches or atm's locally and poor customer service
HSBC are great for those with international banking needs, as you can easily transfer between accounts across countries. However, they have very limited branches & ATMs so banking a cheque, or needing in person assistance can be more difficult. They also don't do PayID which can be frustrating.
no local branches difficult to get replies and they make lots of mistakes
The ability to access your money beyond a set account limit is extremely problematic. The ability to do this online has been removed. You have to call the customer service team who then get an online banking person to call you back to increase the withdrawal limit. I have been waiting for 2 hours for a call back. To add to the frustration I have to call them back after the transaction to lower the limit.
