    HSBC's system is ancient, apart from Current Accounts I don't think they do instant approval for cards???.

    Judging by long gap between when HSBC letters are dated and when they arrive I dont think HSBC do instant anything.

    Took a month after acceptance to actually receive HSBC Credit Card, after signing forms they then asked me to phone up and then asked me to go to a branch to give a specimen signature as HSBC didnt have it on file despite me currently holding a HSBC Current Account and previously having had a HSBC Credit Card

    I did get 50.00 compensation, now hoping Pin number arrives before 60 days from when account was opened elapses. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
  • Why would you get compensation?

    What stress or monetary loss did you suffer?

    Got the card through the post today.

    Almost 2 months from application to card receipt! :rotfl:
