Barclays continues its branch closure strategy, announcing seven more closures across the UK after Christmas. This follows a trend among banks to shift services online, raising concerns about access to banking for communities reliant on physical branches.
Barclays has announced the closure of several branches across the UK, with at least seven set to shut after Christmas. The banking giant, which reported profits of £6.5 billion before tax last year, plans to close 99 sites in total by 2025. The closures, starting in January 2025, are part of a trend among banks to move services online. Some towns risk losing all cash services as a result of these closures, leaving many communities without access to banking facilities.
The move has been met with concern from customers who rely on in-person services
