UK bank Virgin Money rebranding #4667

Open kymckay opened 3 years ago

kymckay commented 3 years ago

Became aware that some UK bank brands have been acquired by Virgin and are rebranding:

Just opening this issue to track this in the index. I believe relevant brands are:

[x] Clydesdale bank (I can confirm a full rebranding in progress across all stores)
[ ] Yorkshire bank (rebranding status unknown to me)

Is the rebranding of all Clydesdale banks happening now (or soon), because we could add a matchname for "Clydesdale" to the existing entry for Virgin Money and remove Clydesdale bank from the index if that's the case.

According to their correspondence it's happening across all branches now, but whether that matches ground truth who knows (e.g. there are still "Co-operative Food" signed locations even though they rebranded to just "Co-op")
