Their Status account is sh1te, i am canceling this week. No one has EVER called me to enquire about my status account (some sort of vip service). When i recently enquired about a loan, the HSBC MEFCO(loan dept) lot didn't even bother to call back, muppets...
So i sent a polite letter to the head of the HSBC status and Deira branch. I got a friggin e-mail asking me to call them, i mean they have my phone numbers. So i went elsewhere for the loan.... and saved money.
I just wish that there was an easy way to shut down the account. Lloyds has tempted me, native English speaking clerks at the reception area, etc, etc..
