Are there HSBC banks in southern Ireland?

Question

Are there HSBC banks in southern Ireland?

Answer 1

No there's only a corporate office here at the moment.  I think I read somewhere that they would be entering retail banking in Ireland at some point in 2007-but I'm not sure.

Answer 2

I've just searched on HSBC branch directory and although HSBC have a branch in Dublin, it clearly states "this branch does not provide personal banking services".

Answer 3

When Irish people say southern Ireland they mean south of a line between Wexford and Limerick. I presume you mean IRELAND as in The Irish Republic or "Éire". Anyway, what you want HSBC for? Ireland has its own banks!
