More than 80 bank branches across the UK are set to close permanently in June, as major high street lenders continue to shift towards digital services. The closures affect branches of NatWest, Lloyds, Halifax, and Bank of Scotland, with the first wave beginning on Monday, June 1.
Santander has already completed all 40 of its scheduled closures for 2026, with four more planned but not yet dated, all due by the end of January 2027. The combined total of confirmed closures across the four banks stands at 86.
Most closures will be completed by the end of June, though some dates may change if banking hubs are recommended for those areas. Customers are advised to check with their bank for alternative services.
