I can barely cope with the new forward facing horse. Just seems too untrustworthy now
‘A forward-facing horse is wild and unconstrained, which maybe isn’t what many people are looking for in a trusted financial institution,’ Mr Young wrote on the jobs site LinkedIn.
'The original horse is in a ‘regardant’ position, a heraldic term for the animal looking back over its shoulder.
‘That position is akin to a horse being vigilant,’ Mr Young said. ‘A quality you might want in a bank.’
But the horse is no longer being a vigilant horse. It’s a complete disaster of a rebrand really
For them to keep Ant and Dec for so long, I’m guessing those adverts have helped bring more money to Santander.
But this horse is basically going to ruin Lloyds. There’s no way I can see anyone staying with them considering the horse is facing the wrong way now. Just makes a joke of the entire brand.
I suspect that they will be ending the relationship in due course. Santander have changed their ad agency and so will be making new, different, ads soon.

In other words, it sounds very much like a “first world problem” to me, for some
I was more pissed off when they changed Marathon to Snickers.
Get yourself down to Morrisons or McColls.
From 10 August, Mars Wrigley has reintroduced the classic chocolate bar under its original name, at Morrison’s and McColls stores.
I saw this but thought it was a temporary change. It was changed to Snickers to align with the USA market.
It is. For three months from the beginning of August - so at the beginning of November you can go back to being annoyed.
I’ve just tried to login online and the website is stating that “internet banking is unavailable”.
Going to have to make a call to the Lloyds Private Team to check on a payment.
Hopefully it resumes normal service soon.
Fixed that.
I don’t quite see your point?
Lloyds Private Team LOL
