Hundreds of bank branches disappeared from the high street last year as they shut their doors for good, and a similar number set to shut in 2024.
Among the nearly 200 locations set for closure this year are 45 UK bank branches that are shutting down in August.
Halifax, Lloyds, NatWest and Bank of Scotland are among the major banks shutting branches across the country in the coming weeks.
All of the businesses have cited the increase in the number of people banking online rather than in person as one of the reasons behind the new list of branch closures.
As of today, 6,000 bank branches have been closed over the past 9 years! 🚫🚫🚫

With around 54 branches disappearing per month, banks must commit to keeping branches open until alternative arrangements are made to protect access to cash.https://t.co/1mRWYKFM43

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
