Hi
Just spoken to HBoS and have been told once the computer systems are integrated with the LTSB system (should be in September) they will no longer be issuing Electron Cards. People will get a Visa Debit card instead and I got the impression it will be of the LTSB Cash Card Account type ,as new Easycash a/c's wont be opened,with restricted ATM use.

Its due to start in September so I hear my friends boyfriend works for HBOS in IT and apparently they will be using the old TSB system once its all been done.
