CASH ACCESS UK, the organisation set up to protect access to cash across the UK, has opened a temporary home for the banking hub in Ystradgynlais, located in The Welfare.
Customers of all major banks can visit the hub any weekday between 9am-5pm to carry out regular cash transactions including cash withdrawals and deposits as well as checking balances or paying bills. Additionally, the hub also offers a community banker service where customers can talk to their own bank in a private space about more complicated issues on the day their bank is in the hub:
- Monday: Barclays
- Tuesday: Santander
- Wednesday: Lloyds
- Thursday: HSBC (coming soon)
- Friday: No community banker available
The hub was recommended by LINK, the UK’s Cash Access and ATM network, following a community request from David Chadwick, MP for Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe.
While the hub in Ystradgynlais is up and running today, Cash Access UK confirmed it is currently working to secure a long-term home for the banking hub which will offer the same services. Local residents can check for updates on their website.
Cash Access UK are hosting an information drop-in event on Wednesday, June 4 at Pictons, 2 Brecon Road, from 11am-1pm where representatives will be available to answer questions.
Gareth Oakley, CEO at Cash Access UK: “I’m happy to announce that we have opened the new banking hub in Ystradgynlais, giving local residents renewed access to cash and in-person banking services.
“The hub is available for everyday banking transactions every day of the week, and for more specific or complex enquiries, a community banker will be on-site to assist on designated days.”
