    Are you sure? I have used Lloyds (and HBOS and TSB) for years, and I was never given the option of a text message. The options I have are to receive their automated call on either my landline or my mobile but it's the same 'old' lady giving instructions on what to do on either method.

    Agree that this is pretty secure either way

    My bad Archi.

    Have no idea why I said that, you do get a text about the confirmation of the standing order.

    You do get a text after you have set up either a new standing order or faster payment from your account if you have a mobile registered with them.
  • I have just looked up the meaning of Troll and I don't understand how my post would have
    in anyway made me out to be one.If anything Archi Bald and Browntoa are behaving in a troll
    like way.I am suprised any newbies carry on with this forum if they are attacked in this way

    I wouldn't pay too much attention to what Archi Bald says, he's condescending towards everyone on MSE and lives in his own utopia. He should do well to remember to what happened to user 'opinions4u' who had a similar attitude to new posters...

    baby frogmella, perhaps you could substantiate your claim with examples of where/when I was "condescending towards everyone on MSE" and where/how I live in my "own utopia", whatever that may mean.

    Could you also please explain what you mean by your threat that opinions4u-like things might happen to me? Is this something like the horse's head from The Godfather?
