All require criminal prosecution... People (normal citizens), lose their lives and go to death row for drug trafficking!! The bankster cartel that run the world is nothing but mafia. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 18768713 United States 07/17/2012 11:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 'HSBC to apologize for money laundering' [link to www.aljazeera.com] What I don't understand is, if a private citizen behaved this way he would be put under the prison (or worse). But a group of CEOs and top-level managers can get off Scott-free with a slap on the wrist and a simple apology. WTF? Guess that's the big-wig corporate shield for you. The rest of us are punished for our serious misdoings (as we should be) and the wealthy-elite always have a get out of jail free card. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 19958840 United States 07/17/2012 01:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | HSBC huge crooks. We paid off our credit card with them and canceled it. 8 months later we get a statement showing we owed for our annual fee. Now they are trying to get more money out of us for a card we long ago canceled and paid in full. After I read this they don't know whats coming to them. I work for a collections lawyer and we may sue for all money ever paid to them above the actual merchandise we charged. Plus harrassment because they call all day long now. |

I am wondering if the change is why they are still trying to bill you the fee..I know I got a letter a few months back explaining the take over by CO of the accounts,etc.I dont think it fully went into effect until July.You may have a different type account because I have never been charged an annual fee and I have had the cards for almost 7 years. |
