Village desperate to save 'absolutely vital service'

People living in a Wirral village have been left outraged by a decision to close down their last bank.

At the start of last month, NatWest announced it would be closing 60 in-person branches across the country by September 20, including the branch in Port Sunlight- the village's last bank. Those who live in the village have been angered by the decision.

Their main concern is it will leave many older or disabled customers, who do not use online banking for a variety of reasons, stranded without a bank. They fear they'll be left with nowhere to withdraw cash and nowhere to go with any concerns regarding mortgages or financial matters.
