We changed over to HSBC last year and it was the best decision. They have been outstanding and the recent upgrade to their online banking app has made banking even easier. Only con is there isn’t many branches in Victoria.

HSBC was a great option as one of us wasn't a citizen nor permanent resident at the time we applied. They were one of very few providers that allowed this. They've also lowered our variable rate three times in about 15 months, usually passing on RBA rate decisions. Compared to our friends, we have one of the lowest home loan interest rates.

This is a bank like I have never dealt with before. They never return calls, they never return emails they never seem to know what you have asked or what you want to achieve. They are supreme at ducking and diving. The only time I have had response is when I got AFCA involved and even then they ignored AFCA. Do not go with HSBC it is less than desirable, it will ruin your life, destroy any spare time you have as you will be dealing with all the myriad of problems that HSBC banking will cause you and if your a person that pays close attention to charges, changes and the bank upholding their contracts you will be spending all available time as I have to correct them with no success. 4 years of hell on earth.

HSBC are not interested in maintaining clients or negotiating rate reductions despite not passing on Reserve Bank reductions in full. They treat you well to sign you up then don’t care. I would not recommend HSBC as they don’t care about average Australians.

Very competitive rates, but not the best facilities, such as physical locations or online banking.
