BBLS Top-Up Application with HSBC

deno2000

Thought i would start off a thread on this matter. So we can see how long it takes people to get this like the orgnal nightmare thread lol

at 11 i applied for £1500 topup (just a small one (compared to most) to keep me "topped up").

clearly havent heard nothing yet, but would like to know other peoples successful/unsuccessful stories with the timeline they waited.

Watching this space too. I have not applied yet as TSB says they will get in touch with us. So waiting

not sure if you noticed but the TSB site does in fact have a topup area Preface12

it says you should be emailed a access code then you can make your app

Hi, I applied 9am yesterday morning and got echo sign document at 7.20am - hopefully the money will show later... To be honest it's a small top up of £1250 but anything right now to keep going is better than nothing.
Good luck anyone applying.

@joe3007 very good to hear, you appied a little bit before me. once you have the echo sign it normally doesnt take much longer.

Hey, just an update, the money went in about 7.30pm ... Just now! Hope you're sorted soon too

@joe3007 nice to hear mate. pretty fast for you. nothing yet for me (not even echo)

Seems this time round not many people applying, guess most got the full amount already.

Almost everyone took the maximum the first time as there was no point in not doing so. Also most of the paperwork will now be in order so the banks will have far less processing to do, making the process easier internally.

@MattMattMattUK i didnt feel i needed everything i could claim at the time. and even now not applied for "maximum". Guess its all about different circumstances. I felt it was enough the first time around (lockdown 1.0) and it was but now in lockdown 2.0 could do with a top up. I guess your someone that just likes to maximise things so you dont have to repeat the process, Matt... Matt... Matt.. UK

am sure they will be many more that didnt get the max, may find this thread helpful.

I still haven't heard nothing from this. Tried to chat with them today.
Because am using a personal account, the help in that area cant help. Because I dont have a business account they cant deal with me. Lol

I have been left with resubmiting an app.
