Anybody who has ever made the mistake of joining a Friday lunchtime bank queue will understand, why I have been such a fan of phonebanking. Balance checks at midnight, fund transfers at dawn that’s my kind of service. No snaking line, no fumbling teller, no trek to an ATM. But 24-hour telebanking was last century’s news. Since HSBC began offering its new e-banking service to some customer in Hongkong about a month ago, I’ve been going online and loving it.
For my money, netbanking offers all the pluses of banking by phone, with even greater convenience. Forget about pressing all those hash buttons or jotting down confirmation numbers on scraps of paper. This is impersonal banking as it should be fast, easy and fingers crossed, secure.
It lets you do most transactions short of actually withdrawing cash out of your printer. I have been using it to make payments, from the utility bills to my credit card. So long as you are eligible, registering online takes less than five minutes. You can check your balance in a click. Transfers too are a snap, wether to another account (not necessarily your own), another bank, or another country.
