Raees, unless they collect your documents how will they approve you? Banks usually does background checks before approval. There must be a valid reason why they declined your application. You should find it out and fix it so that it doesn’t happen again with other banks. If you got declined with HSBC, there is a high probability that you will be declined elsewhere too. I agree that it wasn’t good for HSBC to not let you know that you were declined, though. I would call them up again and find out the reason why you got declined. It will help you.
