The Hub will offer a counter service operated by the Post Office, where customers of all major banks and building societies can carry out regular cash transactions, Monday to Friday, 9.00am-5.00pm. It will also offer a Community Banker service where customers can talk to their own bank about more complicated issues on the day their bank is in the Hub:

This is the fourth Banking Hub to open in Cornwall following Bodmin, Helston and Looe.
Gareth Oakley, CEO, Cash Access UK: “I’m delighted to open the latest Hub in Cornwall which will allow local customers and businesses to access cash and face-to-face banking services. Cash and banking is very important for millions of people and we’re pleased to be helping many communities with new services on their high street.”
The Mayor, Councillor Julia Peggs: “The Town Council are very pleased to see the Banking Hub is now open to residents and visitors. This will provide an invaluable service at the heart of the community and allow people to continue managing their money face to face. The building has level access and it’s great to see a unit that has been empty for some time put to good use again.”
