  • The Government has promised to introduce banking hubs across the UK with 40 opened so far in 2024 out of a planned 100 (roughly).

    The facilities – run by the Post Office – have a counter service where customers of all main banks can withdraw and deposit cash, make bill payments, and carry out regular banking transactions, The Mirror explains.

    Staff from different banks will also be available at the hubs on different days.
