Barclays has announced plans to close 10 more high street bank branches this year
Banks say they are closing branches because a lack of footfall means it costs too much to keep many open.Some communities have been left with no bank branch at all.
A Barclays spokesperson said the closures "reflect the way that our customers are increasingly choosing to do their banking." Adding: "We will always give twelve weeks’ notice of any branch closures, explaining the rationale for the decision, as well as highlighting alternative branches and ways to bank.
"This includes working with the local community to find different, more flexible ways for our colleagues to continue to provide local banking support, such as through pop-up presences."
