Fourth banking hub for North Yorkshire opens in Whitby

North Yorkshire now has four banking hubs as a new service opens in Whitby in a temporary home at 87 Church Street. 

 

This brings the number of operational banking hubs in the UK to 128.

 

Customers of all major banks can visit any weekday between 9am-5pm to carry out regular cash transactions including cash withdrawals and deposits as well as checking balances or paying bills. Additionally, the hub also offers a community banker service where customers can talk to their own bank in a private space about more complicated issues on the day their bank is in the hub:

 

Monday: No community banker available

Tuesday: NatWest

Wednesday: Halifax (from May)

Thursday: HSBC

Friday: Barclays

    

While the hub in Whitby is up and running today, Cash Access UK can confirm it is currently working to secure a long-term home for the banking hub which will offer the same services. Local residents can check for updates on our website. 

 

This is the fourth banking hub to open in North Yorkshire, with hubs already operating in Filey, Knaresborough and Richmond. Whitby’s hub was recommended following the announcement of the final bank branch closure.
