Good idea to short HSBC
and did you read the article? They are asking for proof and records of what you need the money for before allowing you make a withdrawal - for a measly 4k!
They would never attempt this in the US - there would be a line down the block of people closing their accounts - don't stand for this shit UK peeps - this could set a horribly invasive precedent for the rest of us.
Many times I have pulled large sums and the bank tellers often (under the guise of friendly chit-chat) attempt to learn the reason for my withdrawal - I make it very clear to them that those questions are none of their business and inappropriate.
