'We are here to help and support you,' says Lloyds Bank as its prepares to pull out of Cleethorpes

                                               

The last Cleethorpes bank standing - but not for very much longer  

LLOYDS Bank has today confirmed that it will be closing its branch in Cleethorpes later this year.

After many decades of trading at premises on St  Peter's Avenue, it will close its doors and withdraw its ATM cash machines on December 5.

With Barclays, HSBC and NatWest already departees, the town will be left without any bank.

Instead, the only everyday financial service providers will be two building societies - the Nationwide and the Nottingham - and the Post Office.

A spokesperson for Lloyds said: "Before we close any branch, we look at how our customers are managing their money and using the branch.

"Most customers are now using our mobile app, internet banking or calling us instead.

"That means they are using branches, including the one at Cleethorpes, much less. 

"We are here to help and support you."

Lloyds says it has 797 customers which regularly use the Cleethorpes branch.

Of these, 94 per cent are personal customers and six per cent are business users. 

By age breakdown, two per cent are aged under 18, 15 per cent are aged 18 to 34, 24 per cent are aged 35 to 54, 38 per cent are aged 55 to 74 and 21 per cent are aged over 75.
