Bank account frozen?

Hello

Im not sure if this is the correct place for this thread so forgive me if it is.

Anyway I have funds, and i have just been paid from work in my HSBC account.

However i cannot log on to online banking, i get an error reference number and a number to phone. I phoned that number and they said could be a problem with security and i have to go in branch. I went in branch and they couldnt see anything wrong with my account.

When i try to withdraw from an ATM i get the message "Invalid bank account" or "Your bank has not authorised this transaction" depending on which ATM i use.

The HSBC customer service line employees are !!!!!!, and after countless calls cannot seem to help me.

Could someone point me in the right direction and give me some advice as i am absolutely clueless. Im not too fussed about the online banking, I just need my card to work so i can withdraw money as i need to pay rent etc.

All help is appreciated

Thank you
