5 Offline Options:

  1. Cash payment (over the counter): This option is not recommended as it is time consuming as you have to visit bank physically. Moreover Rs. 100 is charged by the bank for cash payment.
  2. At HSBC ATM: You can deposit cash or cheque at any of the ATM. But remember that, the day you deposit does not mean the card bill is paid. It takes 2-3 business days for the actual payment. So make sure to deposit atleast a week in advance. Or else use other methods mentioned in this article.
  3. Mail cheque/draft: You can mail cheque or demand draft of any or same bank and send it to the nearest HSBC bank’s branch.
  4. Payment over phone: With phone banking, you just need to dial following toll free numbers preferably from your registered mobile number. 1860 108 7788 or 1860 500 2277. Keep HSBC Credit Card or Banking Account / Phone Banking Number & Phone Banking PIN details handy before calling.
  5. Dropbox: Although this option is available in Mumbai, it is not recommended especially if you are depositing cash. This is because bank charges Rs. 100 in addition to other fees as per their terms and conditions. If you still want to use this option, then cheque or DD should be preferred. In Mumbai, dropboxes are located at multiple places in western, harbor, and central railway lines. Apart from this, dropboxes are also available at domestic and international airport terminals, inside 586 societies. You can get the list of dropboxes here.

Which option is best?

If you are looking for convenience and time saving, then prefer online option with direct debit from your bank account. This way you don’t have to remember paying bills every month. However make sure your account has sufficient balance to avoid penalty.
