I’ve been using online banking happily for about twenty years.
But it means fewer and fewer people need a physical bank. I can’t think why they don’t combine different banks and perhaps the post office to offer a human banking service in every town.
It’s still a service that older people in particular need. I suppose as you age you end up with your children (if you are lucky enough to have children living nearby) doing your banking online for you. The Government doesn’t help by only paying pensions and benefits into bank accounts.
I seem to remember about thirty years ago that “pension day” was Thursday and all the pensioners went into our local town to collect their pensions from the post office and do their shopping.
