In 1995 Lloyds TSB Bank Plc was formed out of the merger of the TSB (Trustee Savings Bank) and Lloyds Bank. However, Lloyds TSB acquired HBOS in 2009 and has renamed itself as Lloyds Banking Group.
Lloyds and TSB merged to form Lloyds TSB bank in 1995. Several years later, Lloyds TSB acquired the banking firm HBOS to become one of the leaders of banking in the UK.
Bank of Scotland ceased to be an independent bank in 2001 when it joined with Halifax to form HBOS. This organisation was then acquired by Lloyds TSB on 19 January 2009 to form Lloyds Banking Group. The company intention is to keep the Bank of Scotland brand for Scotland and remove their other brands over time in this area (i.e. Halifax and lloyds).
"From what I have found out, HBOS online stands for Halifax Bank Of Scotland, which is a very popular bank. So, HBOS online means that the Halifax Bank Of Scotland has an online bank that you can use if you have an account with them."
No, the Halifax and the Halifax Bank of Scotland are two separate entities. Halifax is a British bank that is part of the Lloyds Banking Group, while the Halifax Bank of Scotland (HBOS) was a separate bank that was acquired by Lloyds Banking Group during the financial crisis in 2008.
