John Lamont says bank branch closures 'unacceptable'

I have been told that Lloyds will shut four Bank of Scotland branches in Duns, Eyemouth, Jedburgh and Newcastleton between October 2023 and February 2024. 

This is worrying news for people in the Borders who need to use local bank services in-person.

These closures will make life harder for many residents in Duns, Eyemouth, Jedburgh and Newcastleton.

I have requested an urgent meeting with Lloyds Bank and I will be strongly insisting that they reverse this decision.

It is unacceptable to leave so many loyal customers without access to cash. Banks must treat Borders residents better.

I am very disappointed by news that four bus services in the Scottish Borders will soon cease operating.

People need these services to get to work, to visit friends and family, and to go about their daily lives.
