HSBC Bank Savings Account Interest Class Action Settlement
HSBC is settling a class action over how it handled interest on Direct Savings accounts. If you opened an HSBC Direct Savings Account between March 2014 and February 2021 and used their website to move money via ACH, you could get a cut of a $495,000 fund.
Your share of the $495,000.00 total settlement fund — paid as a credit to your account if you're still an HSBC customer, or by electronic payment or check if you've since left the bank.

Official eligibility wording
