    You don't have to stick with HSBC if you don't like them ....why not open a POA account at your own bank.

    Now that you have the authority to deal with your mother in laws affairs you can take all financial decisions on her behalf, if they are in her best interests, including switching banks

    Great idea. Thank you. The sooner I can ditch HSBC the better!

    No problem, I went through a similar situation when I had POA for my mum.

    She had three current accounts, so I closed them all down and opened an account for her at my bank. It made life a lot easier.
