FTS. I can't and will never support a bank who discriminates against who gets their new account incentive offers, and who doesn't. Screw that. It should be open to every Canadian, or no one at all. Really shows where this bank's priorities are in Canada.

and I'm not going to argue with you or anyone, but it just sounds like discriminatory BS marketing to pick newcomers only, for their banking bonus.

You must not have received any other HSBC welcome offers with respect to the Eligible Account including but not limited to a Premier welcome offer, an Advance welcome offer or an HSBC Personal Banking offer. You must open an Eligible Account at an HSBC Bank Canada branch.
