    Alliance and Leicester are part of the Santander Group.
    If you look on their website all will be revealed at the bottom of the page!!

    Yippee the money's in at last. Now where do I put it? Have opened a Tesco Internet Saver which gives 2000 points (£80 deals) if you have £50,000 in by an imminent date but unlike most online accounts, they sent a load of paperwork to sign so I don't know how quick I'll be able to use the account.

    HERE'S the thread that might answer that one!

    My CHAPS request was made 10/10/08, and have spoken to ING for 3rd time today, and 3rd time have been assured my money will be transferred "Today". This delay means i am likely to miss out on re-investing the funds in a high interest fixed term account, as suggested by Martin.
    Am i right that Alliance and Leicester are part of ING? If they are, i intend to close my account because they are awful.
    What does anybody else think??

    A&L are not part of ING they were bought to Santander so are now part of the Santander/Abbey/A&L/Bradford and Bingley group.

    If you are keen to open a fixed rate account you could try going on line to open one . In practice they will take a few days to get you the information to sign. If bythen your KE funds have returned or you have some other funds then you can invest them, if your funds are still lost in transit, then you will only have wasted the time involved in making your application. I suspect that most of the more attrctive fixed rate deals will close by Monday so you would need to act very quickly

    :j Just to let everyone know our money has arrived in our linked account.

    The amount was £20.00 less than it should have been due to the CHAPS charge being deducted again. KE have assured us that this will be refunded to our KE account in the next few days.

    Thanks again to everyone for your support and encouragement over the past couple of weeks. It really has been a great help.:j

    WOW ! Just checked my account more out of habit than expecting anything to be there. My payment from the 8th is finally through. Just waiting for my wife's now !
    Hope this gives other people some hope. This forum has been a great support to us over the last few weeks. I will continue to watch with fingers crossed until the last person has been paid.

    Thanks to all !

    Have a great big drink tonight
