High Street bank closure

The High Street branch is among nine in Northern Ireland earmarked for closure during May and June of this year.

In a statement issued today (Wednesday), Bank of Ireland UK said business is insufficient to sustain the affected branches.

Sean Sheehan, regional manager for Northern Ireland, commented: “We understand that closing branches is disappointing for those who use them but the volume of business at the branches involved means they are not sustainable in the long term. We will continue to service those customers through larger branches which are being modernised and upgraded.”
