answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/05/2024 answer text <p>It is important that all customers, wherever they live, should have appropriate access to banking and cash services and the government monitors this situation closely.</p><p> </p><p>Following recent discussions with the UK high street banks, UK Finance confirmed 225 Hubs will be announced by the end of 2024. Participating high street banks have also committed to improving Hubs by standardising the services available between firms, ensuring that customers do not require their own digital device to bank, trialling both a ‘customer liaison service’ and Saturday openings. The banks have agreed to keep services under review to ensure their effectiveness for all customers.</p><p> </p><p>Banking Hubs are recommended by LINK and delivered by Cash Access UK, according to criteria set by industry. The Government does not intervene in these decisions. If a Hub is not available, rural communities can bank via the Post Office, which allows personal and business customers to carry out everyday banking services at 11,500 branches across the UK. The Post Office is also required to ensure that 95% of the total rural population across the UK is within 3 miles of their nearest Post Office.</p> answering member constituency Hitchin and Harpenden answering member printed Bim Afolami question first answered 15/05/2024 13:13:32 answering member 4639 label Biography information for Bim Afolami
