After a prolonged period of lockdown, HSBC UK has decided to extend branch opening hours next month. While the coronavirus pandemic cut branch hours, the bank’s phone lines and website remained busy. After the ban ended, the bank decided to reopen many branches at weekends. The new hours will add around 5,000 hours to each branch. HSBC UK said it would continue to monitor the situation and evaluate the impact of the new hours.
HSBC branches will be open from 9.30am to 4pm during weekdays, and close at 4pm on weekends. The bank’s branches offer a combination of full-service and digital services, which allows customers to make payments, deposit checks, and check their balance online. Additionally, HSBC branches offer education on their products and services. Customers can use the branches to deposit cheques up to PS500 and make payments up to PS25,000.
If you need to contact HSBC on a particular day, the company’s official website will have the details. This way, you’ll have a clearer idea of when your preferred branch is open. HSBC is located in over 200 locations throughout the UK, and you can find opening times for one of them using its branch locator. Listed below are the hours of the various HSBC branches in the UK.
The HSBC bank has several branch locations, and the operating hours for each will depend on where you’re located. While most branches follow the above mentioned timetable, you should also check whether your local branch is open on Saturday. Some branches also have Saturday hours and are open on Sundays. You can also check HSBC opening hours on federal holidays. If you’re unable to visit the bank on a weekend, it’s probably best to call the branch ahead of time.
The announcement comes amid a number of other changes HSBC has made in its business. It has already reduced opening hours temporarily in the wake of the Covid pandemic, and now plans to make some of the changes permanent. Among the changes announced today are the reduction of opening hours at more than half of the company’s branches, an increase of 30 minutes on average across the bank’s branches, and a shortening of opening hours for 148 others. HSBC’s new plans are expected to be implemented by the end of the month.
HSBC is one of the UK’s largest international banks. It offers both personal and business banking. Customers can visit branches to manage their existing accounts or take advantage of various services, such as credit cards, mortgages, insurance, business banking, and more. The HSBC opening hours vary from branch to branch, but the hours for most are similar. The hours of the different branches may not be the same.
