Yup. I started with Williams & Glynns, who were taken over by RBS.
When, after 40-odd years, I heard they were going to be taken over by
Santander I switched to HSBC. It wasn't too hard and they gave me £75.

I also started with Williams & Glynns and stayed when taken over by RBS.
I too moved my account when RBS informed me that my account would be
taken over by Santander. Two other people I know have jumped ship when
told about the sale. I wonder how many accounts will be left to transfer
