    I don't know either, but I had to do my own research on this at one point and if you hunt around the bank's websites you can usually find out. Internet searches in general also help.

    When I talked to Payplan, they sent me a sheet of paper that explained who was connected to the banks I had accounts with.

    Co-op isn't connected with anyone else except Britania, I think. The rest tend to be divided between 2 or 3 major companies, with Lloyds TSB being the biggest. They also own a staggering number of insurance companies.

    Not an expert, so don't take my word for it.

    Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.

  • Just a quick note to say thank you to everyone who replied.

    I am about to open the basic account with the Co-op but wanted
    to be certain they were independent before doing so.

    Thanks again
