I don't think they are open on Saturdays, well they never are round here, have you tried phoning HSBC and asking, do they not have a 24hr line like Natwest etc.

Some of the more major branches are open in the morning only. Expect big queues

Some are, some aren't. The 1 in the nearest shopping town is, yet the branch in my town (a uni town isn't).

My nearest major branch is in Bristol.

Ive looked on the HSBC website, and some branches are open, but all seem to have closed counters on Saturdays... Im not sure if branch staff would still let me take money out...

The person I am buying the car from is also with HSBC, so a bank transfer over the phone would be instant, however he seems to think it still takes 4days for the funds to clear??
