lol @ people thinking they are making 7.x % + on their savings, unless you have like a couple mill, and it’s in a fucking 5 year CD lol

I had this kid come up to me and tell me he’s making 25% on his checking account, I was like wtf?

welcome to pretty much all big financial institutes. And the high profile accounts you’re refering to are the “Premier” accounts. People with good credit, lots of cash, and alot of accounts.

> 7.5 when i signed up 2 years ago, its down to 6.0% and i cant acess any of my hsbc accounts till next monday, theyre sending me new cards and new account information, so right now i have 8$ until monday =)

dude I have that savings account - it is at 3.05%

HOWEVER, HSBC’s fraud department is awesome and they have caught everything before I have and I review my accounts daily.

Their customer service is perfectly fine IMO, I’ve called many times always get someone that speaks decent english and helps me out. They’ve removed every single overdraft, late fee or anything I’ve ever had too.

One of the few nice things about M&T is that all of their consumer call centers are american based. Cheektowaga, and Delaware (state).

🤣 @ 25% deposit accounts.
