Hundreds of UK bank branches are set to close for good this year, leaving thousands of customers without access to an in person branch.
HSBC, Natwest, Lloyds, Barclays, Halifax, TSB and Santander are all among major banks that are shutting branches across the country in the coming months.
All of them have cited the increase in people banking online rather than in person as a reason for the closures.
New data from cash machine network, LINK, has revealed there are 266 branches already planned for closure this year.
HSBC is set to close 114 branches, Natwest will close 52, while Barclays is set to shut its doors at 41 locations.
Lloyds will shut 23 sites, Halifax will close 20, while TSB is shutting nine branches and Santader is shutting five this year.
These are the closing dates and locations for every bank branch currently scheduled for closure in 2023.

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
