Several HSBC Malta bank clients have been left financially stranded, unable to use their bank cards more than two days after a scheduled system upgrade was meant to have been completed. People vented on social media, saying they were unable to pay for items in shops, withdraw cash from ATMs or make online banking money transfers to top up other payment services, such as Revolut. The problems appear to be related to scheduled maintenance works that the bank underwent this past weekend. HSBC services were temporarily unavailable to all clients between late on Saturday and early on Monday morning, as the bank upgraded its cards systems to enable new services, including a long-awaited contactless card payment option. While the upgrade was meant to be completed by early on Monday morning, bank customers were still reporting problems on Wednesday. When Times of Malta attempted to use HSBC cards in shops on Wednesday, transactions using an HSBC Mastercard were accepted while those using an HSBC Visa debit card were marked unauthorised.

Credit Suisse On Trial In Switzerland For Aiding Bulgarian Cocaine Trafficking Ring Ten years ago, HSBC was fined a then-record fine of nearly $2 billion levied by US regulators over the bank''s work with Mexican drug cartels. The massive fine set banking analysts chattering about how megabanks would need to spend millions if not billions to try and beef up their compliance and KYC efforts. But unsurprisingly, that was just talk; little actually changed within the industry. And as a result, Credit Suisse, Switzerland''s second-largest bank, is now facing a criminal trial in its home country over allegations that it provided banking services to a gang of Bulgarian cocaine traffickers. In what Reuters described as the first criminal trial of a megabank in Switzerland, Credit Suisse is facing a potential fine of 42.4 million Swiss francs ($45.86 million) for not taking the necessary precautions to stop drug traffickers from laundering money with the bank between 2004 and 2008. Prosecutors have blamed both the bank and former relationship manager.
