Lochgelly Branch Closure Review Our Lochgelly branch is closing in June We’ve put together this guide to share with you how we’ve made the decision and let you know about other ways to bank with us. We’ve noticed the way our customers like to do their everyday banking is changing. And we’ve used this information to help us decide what changes to make. To make sure we’re offering our customers the right services in the right places, we’re investing £250 million into our branches and digital services. We’ll be improving some branches to offer better digital technology and opening some new ones, but this does mean closing some too. Following a careful and full review, we’ll be closing our Lochgelly branch in June. There are a number of other branches you can visit, the closest one is Cowdenbeath, and you can also use our Kirkcaldy High Street branch. This guide will tell you more about the review and our Partners are always on hand if you’d like to speak to them in person.
