Customers in Tranent are to be left without a bank, as the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) announces they’re closing the branch in summer.
As the last remaining bank branch in the town, residents will need to head four miles away to Musselburgh for their nearest RBS. They’ve said for those who require face to face banking, the local Post Office which also sits on the High Street can be used.
Checking a balance as well as withdrawing and paying in money can be done at the Post Office. RBS have said their dedicated support line is open from 8am until 8pm seven days a week, available for those over 60-years-old.
