Application for bank account

I currently already have a joint bank account with HSBC and applied online for a current account in my own name, application went through fine - I got a phonecall today from someone at HSBC who said I needed to talk to someone on the phone about it etc, she asked if I wanted to be put through at the time - I didn't, Ive pretty much lost my voice at present, so she gave me a number to call them on.
Just wondering what do they need to speak to me about? surely they have all my details from when I opened the joint account with my partner - they wanted tonnes of information from me then.

Possibly it was a courtesy call or maybe they wanted to offer you some additional product/service.
The only way of finding out is by contacting them.0 -
If she called you, how do you know she and the the number she gave really be longs to HSBC? Crooks I understand have been known to use this method.
When you do contact HSBC make sure it is on a phone number you know really does belong to the bank.0
