Soldato
I've recently returned from holiday to find my maestro debit card has been cloned or the details stolen and someone has spent £1100 of my money. Obviously I contacted HSBC straight away and they have stopped the card. There are three dodgy transactions - one an £8 congestion charge (i presume to check the card/details worked), £900 to capital one and £230 to sygma bank (whoever they are). HSBC have said they need to investigate each of these which I understand (I did point out that I was in the US for two weeks so the odds on me needing to pay a congestion charge were nil and also that I dont have a capital one account). But they are saying it could take 10 weeks to do this and return my money, does this not seem an inordinately long time?!
I am planning to go to my local branch and complain because whilst I do not need the money urgently I think it is ridiculous that they think 10 weeks is an acceptable amount of time for me to be without a large sum of money.
Does anyone know if I have any rights to expect a quicker resolution?
