Lost or Stolen Card | Credit Cards and Debit Cards

What should I do if my card has been lost or stolen?

Please take action as soon you realise that your cards have been lost or stolen. If you report your card lost or stolen, we will cancel your card immediately and issue you with a replacement. You will receive a new card within 7 working days in the UK by post and within 10 working days overseas.

Remember that time when your card disappeared and turned up the moment you cancelled it? You can now place a temporary block on your card, and simply unblock it when it turns up. On the HSBC UK mobile banking app, it only takes 5 simple clicks. Alternatively, you can block your card via online banking.

Or, if you don't find it, report it to us as lost or stolen. No harm done.
