    So if I only have around £1000 in ING would that be covered by anything if worst came to worst?:)

    ING is not covered by the FSCS protection scheme.

    As it is an EU-based bank, you may still get cover under the "passport" arrangements, but you might have to pursue getting your money back without help.
