Multiple high street banks and building societies are leaving Britain's high streets in February 2025 as the trend of bank branch closures looks set to continue over the next month. Lloyds Bank, Halifax and Bank of Scotland are among the financial institutions shutting down locations across the UK in a blow to thousands of customers and the wider economy.

LLOYDS Banking group is making a huge fee change for millions of customers from today. It comes just six months after Lloyds, Halifax and Bank of Scotland made a raft of changes to interest rate

Once the closure plan is completed, Lloyds will have 386 branches, Halifax 281 branches, and Bank of Scotland 90 branches. Lloyds attributed the branch closures to customers increasingly opting for mobile banking over in-person services.
