SNP MSP urges TSB to rethink local bank closure

SNP MSP Stuart McMillan has demanded an urgent meeting with TSB officials after an announcement the Port Glasgow branch has been marked for closure.

Yesterday, [30th September] the bank announced 73 branch closures across Scotland.

The MSP for Greenock and Inverclyde has now requested an urgent meeting with TSB bosses to discuss the impact of the decision.

Commenting, Stuart said:

“Make no mistake, most businesses have been hit hard by Coronavirus – banks are no exception.

“But at a time when many are feeling isolated, a face-to-face banking service in the local community is indispensable for my constituents.

“I have requested a meeting with TSB bosses regarding the future of services in the area – the bank need to rethink this decision and allow our high streets to fully recover from this pandemic.

“I will fight to keep this branch open.”
