:j Hello!
After weeks of searching for a decent fixed rate bond for my Mum ( Thank again to all that helped me on here!) I decided on the AA Fixed rate 3.75 one year bond :j
Now just spoke to my other half who says I should be careful as Bank of Scotland is in trouble , I know there may be an issue with thanks to one kind person who warned me about this but I am not sure how severe??GGrrrrrrr
Could someone please please please confirm that its now then I can get the AA bond and get back to having a life !!
Thanks x

Are you going to be above the 50k guarantee limit?
If so there might be some concern - if not then at the moment it's probably no riskier than the other banks.0 -
Most banks are in trouble, that's why the first 50K is guaranteed.0

As the government own 65%-77% of the bank, there is no way you are going to lose a penny.0
