Choose Branch (when open new account issue)

Hey all,
Now I've done this before many times over but i'm trying to open a Lloyds account and when i did it just opened it and gave me another account with local sort code... didn't want this...... anyway i was under the impression Lloyds give you the option to choose a branch to be assigned with? i'm trying to open a lloydes classic account in Guernsey as i plan to buy a house there and invest.
So how does one do this again with Lloyds? do i have to phone up? i remember a year ago i successfully open a TSB account based in cornwall.
Any idea? do lloyds don't offer this option?
Thank you

Look at their website - opening accounts in the Channel Islands - there is a form for you to print out and complete - that's as far as I got.1
