The cheque imaging process is quicker than the traditional system. Cheques deposited before 10pm on a working day will be available by 11:59pm the next working day, provided the cheque has not bounced. You can see when money is added to your account by using the HSBC UK Mobile Banking app.

If there are any problems with your cheque deposit, we’ll contact you using the most recent postal address you’ve given us. Please retain the cheque until the money is available in your account.
