A branch closure decision involves us looking at several different criteria, including the likely impact on customers. How often customers use the branch – and the transactions they’re making."

Natwest also takes into account the banking preferences of its customers, where the nearest branches are and online banking. It follows other recent closures in the area including the closure of the branches in Waterlooville and Gosport last year.
