    Hi Lance, I wouldn’t advice you to go for HSBC. They victimized me already twice. They send bills very late, for me two days before due date and charged me because I paid late. According to them they have a “fine print” terms and condition that even if you have not received your bill you are still obliged to pay. What they did not realized is how can someone pay their bill if they do not know what they have to pay for. In my case, the bills arriving a few days before it is due already happened twice. In the first instance that this occurred, I complained and they said it is a problem but will correct. It happened again and I was charged on the previous bill with late payment. The second instance just this month, we were away for a week vacation during the children’s semestral break. When we came back, we found the statement bill from HSBC and the due date was during when we were away for 1 week vacation. If you want a peace of mind, I would not recommend them.
