    I had one when I was 18. Although to be fair, that hardly places you in good company... ;)

    I'd also like a Credit Card with HSBC, though as my income is only 6k, I'm 18 and have already been refused for a Lloyds TSB Duo Credit Card this month, I'm going to leave it 6 months or so before applying.

    I love my Plus account, I just wondering if HSBC are going to send me a PIN Number so I can use my Debit Card.

    You have to have £500 credited to the current account monthly to even be considered I'm afraid, and £6k (with tax and such) barely scrapes underneath that.

    They take a couple of days longer to come through than the cards themselves in my experience. They did the same to me when I first opened an account there. ;)

    I guess the Credit Card T&C is a good thing. Getting a credit card now could be drastic for me anyway. :P

    Can I withdraw money if I go into a branch with my Debit Card and ID?

    Yup.. and bring your chq book if you have one..

    To make it clear - you NEED the cheque book or a withdrawal slip of some kind. Can't just withdraw over the counter with a card.

    (Making this clear, because it comes up eleventy billion times a day I swear.)

    I haven't got my cheque book, paying in book or PIN yet. Will they accept a passport and plus card?

    Like I say, can't just use a card. If you explain the circumstances to a CSR in the branch (not a cashier, at least not in my branch) they might be able to do something for you.

    Thats odd. When I was with Barclays, I just handed my card over and asked for £XXX amount.

    We run on a voucher based system, you see - every transaction needs a slip to go with it, and for withdrawals that slip is either a cheque or an actual withdrawal slip. Our tills simply don't have the facility to use cards in any meaningful fashion.

    Where can you find the withdrawal slips at HSBC? Sometimes I want to get a wee amount out but don't want to break into notes and don't carry my chequebook with me.
