More on Bradford & Bingley
Description from Wikipedia:
Bradford & Bingley plc is a British bank with headquarters in the West Yorkshire town of Bingley. In 2008, partly due to the credit crunch, the bank was split into two parts; the mortgage book which was nationalised, and the deposits and branch network which was sold to Abbey, owned by the Spanish bank Grupo Santander.
The bank was formed in December 2000 by demutalisation of the Bradford & Bingley Building Society following a vote of the building society's members, who swapped their nominal share of the building society for at least 250 shares of the newly formed bank.
