HSBC resolves app and online banking outage
HSBC says it has now fixed an issue which left customers unable to access online banking or use its app in the UK, preventing some from accessing their accounts.
Thousands of people reported problems on outage-checking site Downdetector since the issues first emerged at 11:00 BST on Wednesday.
Five hours after the issue was reported by angry customers online, the bank now says the problem has been resolved.
"We apologise to our customers who were impacted, and we'll continue to monitor systems closely," it told the BBC.
