Can I switch the autoPay instructions from my passbook account to this new HSBC Premier?

You can switch your autoPay instruction through HSBC Personal Internet Banking. You should first delete the autopay instruction from your existing passbook account and then set it up again in your new HSBC Premier. Once you've logged on, select the 'Banking' tab and select 'autoPay ', which shows your existing autoPay instruction(s) in all of your accounts with HSBC. Select the 'Delete' button to delete the specific autoPay instruction from your passbook account. Next, select 'Set up' to set up the same autoPay instruction under your new HSBC Premier.

Alternatively, you can visit any branch of HSBC and the staff will handle your instructions on the spot. 

Please notify the recipient (the party to whom you authorise us to make a payment) about the changes.
