HSBC took my bank account off me because I enjoyed a punt - didn't know it was illegal. I'll never deal with them again!
The articles I read referred to "hundreds of customers with deposits worth billions of pounds" - so I doubt that's either of us Howard?
the way I read it looks like 99% of all customers their 85k protection was not in place

As an aside I wonder if the trust holding Flutter's ringfenced customer deposits is eleigible for one 85k payout or mulitiple per customer?

@revs hsbc were the number one bank for shutting down poker players accounts due to cash turnover, (while also happily doing business with drug cartels in mexico).
I happened to be in one of their vaults where they stored trunks ect some of them were very old so I thought I would have a look to see what they contained.
