HSBC recently ran a promotion where they were paying 6 % interest on money deposited until the end of April. It is then supposed to go back to their standard rate (around 5%). I have read about a lot of people using them and I thought I would try them out to see [...]
It looks like they have quietly lost a list of their accounts at a minimum. This is an email address I have never used and never given to anyone. It was the default one they gave me when I signed up.

That isn’t the unbelievable part. 3,000 is my lowest [...]
It makes sense to save money on purchases with a rewards card. I have a lot of cards where I have a specific purpose (get 0% balance transfer money or get rewards points, ipods, etc). Until recently, however, I did not have a general spending card.
I did some research and came up with [...]

I finally jumped on the bandwagon last year and got the 3 DVD, 17.99 subscription to NetFlix. I liked the online method for ordering and being able to return through the mail. I initially found that they had a good selection and that I was able to receive about 9-12 DVDs a month. [...]

The latest card [...]
