    Historically it has been HBOS (Halifax Bank of Scotland) with a share of 18-21% but they had a disastorous 2007 first half with there share of the market slipping to 8%. (They have said they expect this to recover though back to the levels mentioned above)

    Otherwise Nationwide (Approx 20%)

    Northern rock (Approx 19.5%) (Note they in the top 5 but I think they are better placed than 5th)

    Woolich- 8%

    Bradford & Bingley- 9%

    HSBC- 3.5%

    PS- I work for HSBC
