Lloyds Banking Group has to close 136 other branches by March next year, arguing that customers are increasingly using digital channels for their daily banking services.
This is the last of a series of branch closings, with the bank – and its rivals – already working in the closing plans previously announced.
The last announcement will see 61 Lloyds, 61 Halifax and 14 Bank of Scotland branches are gradually closed from May.
This comes the day after a Minister of the Government stressed the importance of access to money for vulnerable people.
Lloyds blamed the decision to close the branches on customers who move away from banks in person in the use of mobile services.
Transactions between these branches have dropped an average of 48% in the past five years, as customers have used its application more for payments, said Lloyds.
The plans will bring the Lloyds brand to 386 branches, Halifax to 281 branches and Bank of Scotland at 90 branches once finished.
The bank said that all workers in the branches concerned will be offered jobs elsewhere in the company.
The group of consumers who? said that banks and construction companies have closed 6,266 branches since January 2015, at a rate of around 53 each month.
