Frequently Asked Questions

How do I download my HSBC bank statement?
Log in at uk.hsbc.com and select your account from the Accounts overview → Click 'Statements & Documents' in the left-hand account menu → Select the statement period (month and year) you need → Click 'View statement' to open the PDF in your browser → Click the download icon or use your browser's Save option to save the PDF
Should I import as CSV or Excel into Google Sheets?
Either works. CSV is slightly simpler — File → Import → Upload. If you download Excel (.xlsx) from Bank Statement Converter, you can also open it in Google Sheets via File → Import → Upload and select the .xlsx file.
Does Google Sheets automatically detect dates in CSV imports?
Usually yes. If dates import as plain text, select the date column, click Format → Number → Date to apply proper date formatting. Then you can use MONTH() and YEAR() formulas for analysis.
Can I use Google Sheets formulas on the imported data?
Yes. All Google Sheets functions (SUMIF, QUERY, VLOOKUP, FILTER) work immediately on the imported transaction data. QUERY is especially powerful for date-range filtering.
Is my HSBC data safe to upload?
Yes. Bank Statement Converter processes files in-memory and deletes them immediately after conversion. No data is stored, logged, or used for model training. No account is required.
