There's a penalty to pay for writing bad English. So they actually meant "List of holdings" did they? And even then, who would naturally describe bank accounts, mortgages, personal loans, and credit cards as "holdings"? How amateurish.

Since we are discussing this in a thread with a title containing the word "outage" I think it a bit churlish to criticise TSB's decision to refer to a list of accounts held as a "Holding list".

(No offence to the OP intended, people appear to understand what 'outage' means )

I can't help but see this thread's title now as TSB Planned Outrage

Well done, sir. But how did you find out?

It's the same with me. I've had to revert to the app. I suppose I could try to change my password on the app to a longer one; then it might work online.

By the way, traditionally grammarians would point out that starting a sentence with a conjunction is incorrect.

And did those feet in ancient time,
Walk upon England's mountains green:

Perhaps Blake was not a traditional grammarian in 1808 or maybe is it acceptable if it is the start of a question.

Either way kidmugsy is in good company.

Yep, my blunder. I did mean "hackles", although, of course, I wasn't the one being a pedant over grammar, but merely challenging that.

You'll find that a lot of poetry fails to conform to the normally accepted rules of grammar. You'll also find that I said that I didn't actually agree with this conventional wisdom.

So TSB are still having problems. So much for the IBM experts fixing the problems.

Merva anyone ?
