How do I transfer a balance from another credit card or a store card?
You can request a balance transfer by telephone. We'll just need to know your external card number, beneficiary name and amount.
With our Credit Card, transferring your balance is easy. Once you've received your card, give us a call any time, night or day on 03 456 100 100 - transfer requests received after 3.30pm or on a weekend or bank holiday will be processed the next working day, and it can take up to five working days for the money to reach your other credit or store card provider.
Balance Transfer fee of 2.99% (min £5) will be charged for each transferred balance made within three months of opening your account. After three months, this fee will be at the full rate.
Unfortunately we can't transfer balances between cards operated by members of the HSBC Group, including HSBC UK Bank plc, its subsidiaries, associated and affiliated companies. These include Marks & Spencer Financial Services plc.
