Jonathan: Actually, setting external links is quite easy. However, when I opened my account two years ago, they still used voided check to verify external accounts. Maybe they have changed since using trial deposits are quite common now. On the other hand, you can always link HSBC to other accounts that have simple verification process. I only linked my BoA checking account to HSBC, but linked HSBC to IGoBanking and FNBO.

You could get the orange checking and the HSBC savings and link them together. But, I don’t know how easy it would be and if there would be any fees for transferring money between them though.

So is it better to have a higher Annual Percentage Yield savings plus or a higher checking. Don’t understand the difference between the two? Which is better and why?

Thanks for putting this up! I have HSBC’s online savings, but for some reason I never get their e-mails as quickly as all of their other customers.

Hopefully there will be more information on the HSBC web site tomorrow!

Teddy: To answer your question, no, I don’t get paid to publish the post, though I can’t speak for other bloggers who have the similar post. The reason I think you may see the same topic on multiple blogs is that we all use HSBC and got the notice at the same time yesterday. And also it is quite related to what we are discussing on the sites.
