The UK’s high streets are set to become even more desolate this year,as hundreds more banks are closing their doors for good.
The number of bank branches across the UK has dwindled gradually in recent years as customers increasingly turn to online and mobile banking.
In fact,figures from last December showed 6,214 bank branches have shut since January 2015 – around 53 every single month.
While hundreds of branches have closed this year already,there are more in the pipeline over the coming months.
NatWest has confirmed 54 further branch closures,followed by Santander with 42 sites.
