Had the EXACT same problem!!
Go to the branch directly and ask for a statement. Then tell them they need to stamp it cos it's for a Home Office Visa Application.
Take no chances -

Kindly read the extract from Immigration Directorate Instructions;
Personal bank statements showing the payments made to the applicant: Bank statements provided must be on official bank stationery, and must show each of the payments that the applicant is claiming. If the applicant wishes to submit electronic bank statements from an online account he/ she should also provide a supporting letter from the bank on company headed paper confirming that the documents are authentic. Alternatively an electronic bank statement bearing the official stamp of the bank issuing the statements will be accepted. This stamp must appear on every page of the statement. For the purposes of this guidance an online bank account is one that operates solely over the internet and sends their bank statements to their customers electronically (for example over the internet or via email).
So you don't need to get the statement signed and stamped if you have the bank's official cover letter with it.
