I actually applied for the rewards MasterCard last week but was denied. In the email it said "unable to verify your identity. No credit report was pulled" I suspect because my EQ file is inaccessible due to some unknown reason (I'm working through it with EQ).

Best wishes as you are working with the most progressive, forward thinking credit bureau ... oh yeah, I lied Good luck, I just got through trying to communicate with them and as always ... it has been a life experience!

HSBC used to be my go to bank. They always liked me and my well below average profile. Had a HSBC Co-Branded American Express Card with a $10K Limit and 7.9% Fixed Apr along with an HSBC Platinum Cash Rewards MC with 13.9% variable Apr. Alas, along came the white Knight Capital One and I closed my relationship down before Cap1 took over. Since then I can not find anything exciting about their card offerings. Why are they back when they jettisoned us a long time back say 2009.

I was going to apply for the HSBC plat card I liked the 18 month balace transfer but they pull equifax and equifax has wrecked my score the past month....I have accounts not even showing up on equifax it cost me 50 points! the other two are just fine. I'm waiting for the class action lawsuit to start and i hope it runs equifax out of business! they have damaged a lot of people.
