On Aug 21, 2021 about 1pm, we went to this branch to open an account. We moved to GDL 6 months ago…read moreand own a house about 3 blocks away. We are legal residents of Mexico. We came with all required paperwork, and researched the account types online, and brought MXN 40k as an opening deposit. The man at the door was extremely rude. His first question was "Why do you want to open an account?" I told him we live here and need to pay people for goods & services. He then demanded to know how much we'd deposit on a monthly basis" I said, some months a lot, some months less, we are about to start remodeling our house. He insisted on an amount, so I said at minimum MXN 20k a month, and he said "that's not enough". At that point it was obvious he didn't want our business so we left. There are no minimum monthly deposit requirements, and the average deposit to avoid fees is only MXN 4k. Peanuts compared to what we'd have been running through this account. I have never in my life had a bank ask me "why" I wanted a bank account. It's apparent that HSBC doesn't teach its employees discrimination on the basis of race or national origin is morally wrong AND bad for business. Luckily there are many banks and we won't ever have to deal with this company again.
