My award for worst bank ever goes to HSBC:
Here's why:
I opened up an account and never received checks for it. I go to the branch and ask for them, they have me fill out a form and said that checks will be mailed to me shortly.
I receive a booklet of checks. All is fine. Except I look at my account balance and see they charged me $91(!) for this booklet.
$91!!!!!
Apparently they're not obligated to tell you:
(1) That there's a charge for checks
(2) That they have a bunch of different options for checks
(3) That they're going to go ahead and sign you up for the most ridiculously priced option
This feels like it should be illegal to me.
