A popular Birkdale bank is up for closure.


Despite claims by Southport MP Damien Moore that the RBS Birkdale branch was safe from the axe, OTS News understands this is no longer true.

A statement released by RBS says: “Following a review of the branch network in England and Wales a decision has been taken to close 162 Royal Bank of Scotland branches.

“As a result of this process, around 792 roles will be made redundant , and we will seek to support our colleagues with the option to leave on a voluntary basis.”

The Birkdale branch had supposedly been saved from the chop but new reports say it will shutdown in the next 18 months
