TSB has today announced it will close 70 branches in 2022 as increasing numbers of customers are switching to online banking.

The Wilmslow branch on Alderley Road will close on 14th June 2022.

As a result of the closures there will be 150 fewer jobs but all impacted staff to be offered alternative roles at TSB.

TSB's Chief Customer Officer Robin Bulloch said "Closing branches is an incredibly difficult decision to take, but we have to respond to the changes in the way people bank and provide the right mix of services for all our customers now and into the future.

"These changes allow us to maintain an extensive branch presence across the country. They are accompanied by a significant investment programme to upgrade branches to better suit customer needs. And, where it takes longer to get to the nearest branch, we will introduce more 'pop-up' services in communities."
