Alliance & Leicester Internet Banking - Changed for the worse?

Hi All,
I have banked with A&L for a while now, and have used what I considered to be their excellent internet banking service. It even worked on my smart phone (opera mini) 2 - 3 years ago!!!

Anyway, about 1 month ago at about the same time they started rebranding the site as santander the site has really badly slowed down.

I was wondering if anyone else had noticed?
It now takes about a minute to enter your user number and another minute to enter your password!
I'm guessing they have moved the site to one of their other servers and closed down the A&L one. Absolute rubbish. Might be time to switch!

    Haven't noticed a difference in speed - except on rare occasions it seems quite fast.

    There does seem to have been a change in when transactions are displayed - many don't appear until the day after they happened.

    It seems much faster to me and most transactions appear almost instantly. Cashpoint withdrawals straight away rather than next day, cheque pay in again immediate. I think they have improved on a good system. I am not looking forward to going to the full Santander system though.
