My son has recently turned 16. His father's name is on his savings bk. When he went to transfer funds his balance was £500 less than he expected. His father said he wont discuss it and claims to have lost the bk. Is this legal for him to withdraw money and not ask my son. The money has not been used for his benefit

When you say father's name was on the book, was it as trustee for your son? If so, then he is liable for the £500. If it was your son's father's name solely on the book, then unfortunately, I don't see that you can pursue this avenue with the bank.
