The Woolwich Building Society officially merged with Barclays Bank in 2000. As a result, Woolwich Building Society share accounts were converted into Barclays share accounts. Woolwich shareholders became shareholders of Barclays and their shareholdings were automatically transferred.
the gateway was taken over by the woolwich building society, and then in turn by Barclay's bank who currently hold any previous accounts
The Bedfordshire Building Society merged with the Temperance Permanent in 1974 to become the Gateway Building Society, which in turn merged with the Woolwich Equitable Building Society in 1989? to become the Woolwich Building Society.
