Hello everyone,
Recently I have recieved the “HSBC safeguard letter” following with a call from them. They asked me few questions regarding my current and permenant address, email and normal stuff, and then he asked me about my place of birth and my nationality since they are different. I was born in middle east but I am holding an European passport, however I have not provided this info to them before as the guy who opened my account in the first place put place of my birth same as my passport.
Now that he called askig about that, I feel extremely worried if they going to shut down my account. HSBC is very important for my banking activities and It is crucial for me to keep it open as long as I am in HK.
So I was wondering if I should voluntely close my account before they force close it? And perhaps open it again after a month or so? Just do not want to have a bad record in their system.
I would really really appreciate your taught and inputs regarding this. Thank you
