Something weird going on with HSBC - when you google them to bring up the online banking; the first page found is hsbcamanah.co.uk, when you go online the site looks the same but the security certificate isn't valid - is it legit?
If you go directly to HSBC.co.uk the site is fine so is online banking - something seems fishy

At HSBC we recognise that customers demand more choice and greater flexibility in their day-to-day banking.
That's why HSBC Amanah brings a range of Islamic personal banking services to selected markets that suit both your ethical preferences and personal circumstances.
http://www.hsbc.co.uk/1/2/ looks normal.

It's registered to their business address and their company number.
Someone in mumbai has gone a bit OTT with the SEO or something.

To be fair, anyone could register a domain to anyone they like if that's going to fool people into thinking it's legit.

It's sharing the same nameservers as all the other hsbc's. I'd say its pretty safe, although I would just go to the .co.uk site.

With these Islamic accounts you don't pay or receive interest on money, in accordance with Shariah law.

Yeah someone in the office was just saying; instead on a mortgage - you pay back capital repayments and rent the house off the bank for the duration of the loan
