HSBC Bank - MasterCard Comparison
Most HelpfulFavorable Review
I have had my HSBC card since 2007. In all the time that I have had and used the card, I have never once had a single concern with it. Paying the card is as easy as using the card. Their website is user friendly, and they don't charge enormous fees if you try to pay on the due date. I, like most...

The HSBC MasterCard is not what I would call a great credit card. For one thing, they charge a ten dollar fee to swipe at the automatic teller machine and get a cash advance.

HSBC uses unfair practices in how they charge late and over the limit fees. They take longer than others to give credit for payments. I have sometimes paid online on the day due but then charged a late fee because of the delay in giving me the credit. What makes it even worse is that the credit was given before the actual closing date. I think it is really unfair to charge a late fee it the payment is made before closing even if it is not right on the due date. If I make a payment to capital one by 3pm I get credit for it that day and any charges are taken after the credit is given even if they...

will keep increasing the credit line, but no matter how well you do or how much you build up your score wont lower rate will make you apply for a different card. ( guess what the new applications lower your score)
