Ruffler bank changes name !!

Hi. it seems today that Ruffler Bank has suddenly changed its name to Aldermore. I was going to put a considerable sum in the 1 year bond but now it all seems a bit dodgy. Anyone any more info ?
still covered by FSCS £50k but after being bitten by Icesave situation am now not so sure about the 1 year bond

Not dodgy at all, a simple take over for Ruffler. All products, staff and the way business is dealt with is all the same.

Anacap bought Ruffler Bank on May 20th, then later in the month Ruffler Bank was merged with a commercial mortgage company.

As things stand now, hey have relaunched under a new name of Aldermore Bank PLC. All the products of Ruffler Bank are still available - only difference is the name, logo and now they have a commecial mortgage lending department.

Hope this helps
