for people looking for a bank (even though there are several threads on here)  
hsbc stopped some fucking asshole hitler loving fuckhead from spending 500$ with my stolen credit card numbers, they dropped the charges on the account with no questions asked besides asking me if i made the charges and they trusted me enough to believe me when i said no

and i also get 7.5% interest on my savings account

Pics of interest rate on an official page (black out all other info obviously) or you are full of it. I have the online savings with them and used to get 5.05%, now it’s down to 3.05% with all the fed rate cuts.

:bsflag:

No way a savings account is giving 7.8% right now.

[http://home.ingdirect.com/products/products.asp?s=OrangeSavingsAccount](http://home.ingdirect.com/products/products.asp?s=OrangeSavingsAccount)

If you can prove me wrong great, I’ll move a bunch of money into it. Hell, 7.8 is a decent return in STOCKS right now.

why would they take your deposits at 7.5% to make loans at less than that?

HSBC is great until you have a problem and you have to talk to “John Wayne” or “Greta Garbo” in India.  
Then again I hear if you have over 100k in your account you get a super special top secret customer service # to a well trained and _gasp_ english speaking call center downtown.

Yeah but that number just plays a recording. “You have uninsured money. I suggest you move it elsewhere. This message will self destruct in 5…4…3…”
