Mo in Idaho reports this identity theft: I recently got my credit report from the three agencies. There is a $4000 charge on two of the agencies claiming I opened up an account in March of 2003 and it has two different account numbers. The address is in Delaware. I have no idea who HSBC/RS is let alone open an account with them. Thank God you do. I wrote down the phone numbers, names and address’s and I will pursue the matter. It does affect my credit score and I work hard to keep it clean. Thank you for the website.”

PL in Pennsylvania says: “It would appear that there are no newspapers, magazines, radios, or TVs accessed by the executives of HSBC Bank Nevada N.A., which says it’s the world’s local bank. If they had access to any news outlet, they would know that identity theft is the fastest growing fraud problem in the U.S. Instead, these jackasses sent me an offer that is so easy for thieves to use that it is unbelievable.
AP in Pennsylvania said: “HSBC has been playing the no interest game with me on my Best Buy Card. I pay off the balance so that I do not get hit with the interest at the end of the promotional period. They manipulate the payment so about $2 is left on that item then nail me for the entire 18 months of interest. They have done this to me twice now. Both times they fixed the problem but as far as I am concerned this is fraud.”
