How Do I Cancel a Recurring Bill Payment with HSBC?

Getting rid of unwanted recurring bill payments can be a hassle regardless of your banking provider. Fortunately, it's usually easy to manage with most major banks. HSBC is one of the largest in the world, and its steps for modifying or erasing your recurring payments are pretty straightforward.

Here's a breakdown of what steps you can take to cancel your recurring bill payments.

First, HSBC's range of online services is available via the bank's app or online banking portal. These include paying bills, setting up new payee accounts, scheduling payments and paying multiple bills. However, they aren't all available through the HSBC Mobile Banking App. Some of them only work via Personal Internet Banking with your HSBC account on your browser.

Specifically, while you can set up a new bill payee via either online banking or your mobile HSBC app, you can only delete a recurring or future bill payment through Personal Internet Banking.

Steps to Delete or Cancel a Recurring Payment

1. Log into your Personal Internet Banking account. In case you don't yet have one active, you can set it up by visiting HSBC's website and creating a login profile after verifying your identity with your bank card number and Social Security number.

2. Once you're inside your personal banking account on your browser, click the "My HSBC" tab at the top left of the page, and once you've opened it, select the "Future dated Bill Payments" option.

3. Once you've opened Future Dated Bill Payments, there will be a column for "More" for each recurring payment payee listed these. You can click on this and select "Delete" for that payee and cancel their recurring or future-dated bill payments.

With these simple steps, you can ensure that you cancel recurring payments you want to stop until you add them back in again manually.

If you have any other questions about managing bill payments or about any other aspect of your HSBC account, you can also contact HSBC for detailed support with one of their customer service representatives.
