Putting Savings into Bradford & Bingley

[smurfchops]

I heard that B&B are having problems, is it safe to put money into a one year bond as they have a high rate of interest? Thanks all

�35000 will be guaranteed safe, �75000 if it is a joint account.

Be sure that you have no other savings/investments with another company under the same ownership as B&B

Ethel, How can I find out which other companies are under B&B's ownership ?

[Ethel]

I have checked for you and these are the only subsidiaries of B&B

Mortgage Express; Bradford & Bingley Treasury Services (Ireland); Bradford & Bingley Investments; Bradford & Bingley International Ltd
