    ok, so I received acknowledgement on 5th January of my request to transfer branch. When I phoned the helpline they said account would transfer in 10 days time.. but it still hasn't.

    Has anyone's account transferred recently or is there a freeze on the process now?

    Is 80-80-80 not a Bank of Scotland sort code?

    I, just used 80-80-80 as an example because RBS in Scotland use the '80' number.

    The sort code im after is 83-24-22 (shetland)

    Haha, that's ok then ... I did wonder that this might be the reason why they haven't done your transfer ... I can't imagine that a request to transfer to BOS would go down well with RBS.
