![]() As there's literally a Lloyds across the street from this TSB (and now a Halifax in the middle of them since they added retail units to the Metro station) I was surprised this TSB would become a Lloyds. It seems a bit odd, I thought all my accounts would have been TSB, but the ones from Newcastle Haymarket are Lloyds (despite them being opened when they were a TSB and the sort code beginning 77).īefore the Lloyds TSB merger I opened accounts with my local TSB and one with the one in Newcastle when I became a student. I should really have a look to see how my Lloyds shares are doing. I would have thought it would has been a lot easier and significantly less expensive to sell off HBOS (which caused a lot of this trouble to begin with) as Halifax and BOS still operate their own branch network. Did IBAN's not exist when TSB was last an independent bank? Well I have my TSB chequebook, I found it in a box with my Midland Bank chequebook (complete with the old Griffin logo), I wonder if the IBAN will change, the UK sort code and account number won't change but the IBAN has 'LOYD' in it, although HSBC still has 'MIDL' in it. They had Trustcard credit cards, I can't remember what they branded their savings accounts as. I wonder if the old brands will pop up, apparently Cashpoint is a Lloyds trademark, TSB used to use Speedbank. Presumably as they have to treat TSB as a separate bank there's nothing to stop them issuing the cards to Lloyds customers. I'm assuming that there are no arbitrage possibilities, and that holders of existing cards branded Lloyds TSB (presumably Lloyds in future) will not qualify for the new cards.It'll be interesting to see how it works. Yes, from tomorrow TSB are a separate bank, though still owned by Lloyds at least for the time being.
