HSBC and 0% credit cards

has anyone with an HSBC account managed to get a 0% credit card? Virgin and Tesco refused saying HSBC do not release credit history - although the credit points are over 500.

    HSBC do report to experian. I have several accounts with them on my credit file.
    What other accounts do you have showing on your credit file?
    If you current account is with HSBC have you tried to get a 0% card with them? (need to earn £8.5k and pay in at least £500 per month to your current account).
