A number of banks are scheduled to close across the UK in March – including some in the North East.
Among the branches shutting are Barclays, NatWest, Halifax and Lloyds. Ulster Bank is also affected by the changes, which have been confirmed by the banking giants as they earmark certain sites for closure. You can see the full list below.
Which? research shows banks and building societies have closed 5,835 branches since January 2015, at a rate of around 54 each month. There are already 249 closures scheduled for 2024, reports Birmingham Live.
If your local branch is closing, you can do some basic cash or counter services at your nearest Post Office – for example, if you need to pay in cash and cheques, make withdrawals and check your balance. Most major banks also now run pop-up branches or vans, but you’ll need to check online to see when one is due to visit your town. More banking hubs are also due to open across the UK – these are where banks use a shared space on the high street, with each lender taking it in turns to occupy the space each day.
