There has been a growing concern in recent years over the increase in bank branch closures with Which? describing it as happening at an alarming rate .

The consumer champion previously warned that three million Britons are at risk of losing sufficient access to cash.

LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:

• RBS to close a fifth of its branches - list of sites at risk
• Labour vows to ‘guarantee face-to-face banking’ as hundreds of towns see last branch close
• Full list of Barclays, Halifax and Lloyds bank branches closures in April 2024

In May 2023, Age UK published a survey of over 65s which found that 39 percent of respondents with a bank account were not managing their cash online.

This is the equivalent to 4.09 million people and suggests a significant amount of the population is at “high risk of financial exclusion”.

Sam Richardson, the deputy editor of Which? Money, said: “A closed bank branch isn't just a high street eyesore, but one less place for consumers to go to withdraw cash or access in-person banking services.

“Alternatives like banking hubs could help plug the gaps, but they are being rolled out too slowly, so more must be done to ensure communities get these replacements for their closed bank branches as soon as possible.”
