HSBC particular
HSBC Rates are often considered very high by the French, but are they really? As we will see in our article, it actually seems that not. If HSBC is not a cheap bank, it is also not a high-income bank.
Currently, HSBC offers 80€ for any account opening. (subject to conditions)

HSBC Credit Card Rates
HSBC credit card rates are slightly lower, with a classic credit card at €45 per year. On the other hand, withdrawals from one distributor from another bank pay only from the 5th, which is more advantageous than in most other banks.
However, HSBC has only 400 branches in France, so it can be difficult to find a nearby distributor, especially if the customer doesn’t live in town. It is therefore important to have several free withdrawals in HSBC rates.

Incident and payment irregularities costs
HSBC’s rates for incident charges are no higher than elsewhere, due to statutory capped rates such as intervention fees or inactive account charges. As for the overdraft rate, it remains correct but may be different depending on the customer. To find cheaper, you need to turn to online banks.

The HSBC Remote Agency
HSBC’s rates are the same within its remote agency. It is a dematerialized agency mainly aimed at clients who want total autonomy in the managing their account. They have access to exactly the same services as those who have subscribed to a physical agency.
In order to be able to access the agency remotely, it is necessary to transfer its accounts to it.
Our HSBC Tariff Review
Although HSBC rates are not the most competitive, they are still quite affordable compared to those of a traditional bank. On the other hand, they do not have the weight against online banks… They are able to offer free bank cards and no account maintenance fees.
