🚨 Big News from Nationwide! 🚨
Nationwide Building Society has just announced that all 696 of its branches, including Virgin Money locations, will stay open until at least 2030! 🙌 This is a breath of fresh air amidst the wave of branch closures elsewhere.
Why is this a big deal? 🤔 Many of us still prefer the good old face-to-face interaction when it comes to banking. Whether you’re setting up a new student account or just need some guidance, visiting a branch can be invaluable. In fact, Nationwide revealed a rise in account openings where they’re the last bank standing! 💪
Dame Debbie Crosbie, Nationwide’s top boss, puts it perfectly: “Branches are important to our customers and communities.” 🌍 Not only are they keeping the branches alive, but they’re also investing in digital and phone channels to make banking more accessible for everyone.
Plus, Nationwide branches aren’t just about banking. They’re creating safe spaces for domestic abuse survivors, hosting dementia clinics with the help of Dementia UK, and running digital lessons to boost tech confidence. 🧠❤️
By acquiring Virgin Money last year, Nationwide now offers the UK’s largest single-brand banking network. It’s reassuring to know that in a rapidly digitalising world, they still see the value in community connection.
This commitment is a win for customers and high streets everywhere. Let’s hear it for Nationwide, leading the way in keeping our towns vibrant and accessible!
