Im no pro, but maybe we ould try put together a list of all the banks/ building society we can think of, and then you cross through all the ones you had creditors with until we can see whats left? I have a similar problem. I have a co-op account and a natwest instant savings account but they werent my creditors.

I can't remember half the creditcards that i had, lots were random ones that i never saw much advertisement from again, (this is between 1995-2005)

I know these:

Barclays (Loan),
Goldfish,
Marbles,
RBS Advanta
Royal bank of Scotland,
Capital One,
Alliance & Leicester,
MBNA,
Granite (Vanquis),

I had well over 11 cards ...atleast....

Is yorkshire bank the same as yorkshire building society? or a completely different bank all together?

I always get confused with banks that sound the same, Like Royal Bank of Scotland isn't the same as Bank of Scotland lol. Why do banks use such similar names, Pure laziness i tell ya! :rotfl:
