Wishart responds to TSB Lerwick branch closure
8 May 2024
Responding to news that Lerwick’s TSB branch is set to close on 10th September 2024 Scottish Liberal Democrat and Shetland MSP Beatrice Wishart said:
“This will be disappointing to TSB Shetland customers, especially those not able to access the nearest branch in Inverness.
“We are told that most banking can be done without a branch but sometimes there is no alternative.
“Internet banking is only as good as digital connectivity and this feels like a backwards step.
“I understand that there will be support from TSB to help those switch away from face to face banking and a pop-up service to be provided somewhere in the community three days a week after the September branch closure.”
