Last updated: 4 May 2020

In these uncertain times, we want to help you face challenges as they arise and make your everyday banking as straightforward as possible.

We’re here to help

We’re ready to support you and your business through this unprecedented situation. We have well practised contingency measures in place to make sure we can maintain critical processes, including home working arrangements for our HSBCnet support staff.

How HSBCnet can support your banking needs*

  1. Have a question?
    Virtual Assistant and Live Chat services provide immediate online assistance to your questions about how HSBCnet works. Getting help on HSBCnet >
  2. Need a new Security Device?
    You can use your mobile device to log on and access your accounts on your computer – no Security Device necessary. Once your System Administrator enables mobile authentication for your user profile, you ‘ll be able to activate your device in the HSBCnet app. If you still need a replacement Security Device, we can arrange for delivery to your remote working address. Security Device delivery is subject to availability of local mail/courier services.
  3. Question about a payment?
    Use the Track Payments service to easily find a payment, track its status, and see if you need to take further action. You can also verify transactions and balances in Account Information. Still have questions about a payment? With Message Centre, you can securely send us your query.
