And neither are going anywhere.
Yes, you can open accounts online and manage your savings with our myaccounts app, but we know for many - speaking to a real person still matters. That's why our branches are here to stay, and we're investing in them too:
Refurbishing our branches (five completed so far!), making them more modern, comfortable and spacious.
Extending opening hours in some locations.
Installing a OneBanx machine in Thatcham to bring free cash access to the whole community.
Grab your passbook, pop in, and say hello to a member of the team - we're ready and waiting to provide expert, personalised customer service with a smile.
The banks could learn from NBS. It gives genuine pleasure to interact with a real person, our recent dealings with NBS have been a lesson in how to get customer service right. Unfailing politeness coupled with real efficiency and product knowledge in branch staff.
