Lloyds Bank Is Closing 37 Branches Next Month as Digital Banking Push Faces Fresh Test
Lloyds Bank plans to shut 37 UK branches in June, accelerating a years-long reduction of its high street footprint as digital banking use grows. This round of closures fits into a broader strategy that includes Lloyds, Halifax, and Bank of Scotland locations, extending through 2027. Lloyds is pushing more customers toward digital-only services just weeks after a tech glitch exposed transaction data for hundreds of thousands. On its closure page, the bank outlines upcoming shutdowns and notes that branch cuts follow Financial Conduct Authority guidance, with LINK reviews checking local cash access.
