Received a message from nottingham BS to say the esavers account is being transferred to Beehive Money.

They state it is still covered under FSCS but wondered if anyone else has had dealings with Beehive? Or know any info on Beehive...

Not seen if affects terms for withdrawals or times to do so...

Seems like primarily a branding exercise: https://www.beehivemoney.co.uk/about-us/

A new brand with a trusted heritage

Although Beehive Money is a new brand, it’s part of The Nottingham Group that also owns the Nottingham Building Society, Harrison Murray Estate Agency and Nottingham Mortgage Service (NMS). So, while our brand and website is new – your money is safe with a financial service group with 170 years’ of experience.

Migration to Beehive completed for me. All I needed to set up access to the funky new site was the Activation Code that they had previously sent by post. I think some would consider this as very relaxed security but since money can only be withdrawn to the linked account, and as changing the linked account requires the account holder's involvement, I suppose it is acceptable.

Website looks quite feature-rich and it seems they have tested it well.
