NAME
Finance::Bank::HSBC - Check your HSBC bank accounts from Perl

SYNOPSIS
use Finance::Bank::HSBC;
my @accounts = Finance::Bank::HSBC->check_balance(

      bankingid => "IBxxxxxxxxxx",
      seccode   => "xxxxxx"

);

foreach (@accounts) {

      printf "%25s : %13s / %18s : GBP %8.2f\n",
        $_->{name}, $_->{type}, $_->{account}, $_->{balance};

}

DESCRIPTION
This module provides a rudimentary interface to the HSBC online banking system at https://www.ebank.hsbc.co.uk/.

DEPENDENCIES
You will need either Crypt::SSLeay or IO::Socket::SSL installed for HTTPS support to work with LWP. This module also depends on WWW::Mechanize and HTML::TokeParser for screen-scraping.

WARNING
This warning is from Simon Cozens' Finance::Bank::LloydsTSB, and seems just as apt here.

This is code for <online banking>, and that means <your money>, and that means <BE CAREFUL>. You are encouraged, nay, expected, to audit the source of this module yourself to reassure yourself that I am not doing anything untoward with your banking data. This software is useful to me, but is provided under <NO GUARANTEE>, explicit or implied.
