DM in Texas said: “Though informed of difficulties and resolve to make payment, HSBC continues to harass with calls numbering 12-16 a day. HSBC is totally totally unprofessional. Scam artists is too good a term for these rip off artists!”

HSBC will never get this California man as a valued customer. He said “8 CALLS in one day is overkill!! HSBC is asking for someone that does not live at my address and number, and they are RUDE!!”

RC in North Carolina said: “I have an account with HFC, over the years I was NEVER late and sometimes paid more than the min. payment. As we all know times are tough right now so for the last few months we have been late. NEVER OVER 30 DAYS. The people from HFC start calling 2 days after the due date and when I say calling I mean 4 times an HOUR !! No joke. I get so stressed hearing the dang phone ringing off the hook (even after I have talked to someone) What really gets me is they ask for more than whats due. They always ask for 2 months of payment which is crazy ! I am sick and tired of these people and I am tempted to tell them I am not going to pay at all if they keep harrassing me. It just gets to me that we are not ever 30 days late and they start calling 2 days after due date ! Isn’t that against the law ?? Thanks for reading.”

AN in Florida said: “I have been receiving calls 3-5 a day on my cell phone from these people. I am not late on a payment and am on the DO NOT CALL LIST. How can they be stopped? The number that comes up is 800-395-2274.”

AG in Nebraska said: “So far HSBC has called our house 10 times a day and night. Right up until 10pm. They have begun to threaten repossession of my motorcycle. They lowered my wife’s credit card limit which put us over the limit…Jeezus will they ever stop harassing us? We made a deal with them on two credit cards and now they are threatening to repo my bike over the outstanding balance on those accounts.”
