The branches will offer cash services and will be staffed by colleagues who worked in them when the location was owned by Ulster Bank. More than 125 Ulster Bank staff transferred to Permanent TSB as part of the branch acquisition.
Customers who wish to open accounts in the new branches can do so in person, by phone or online using Permanent TSB’s award-winning digital account opening process on their mobile app, the lender said. “We are delighted to open branches in 25 communities that would otherwise have lost a bank branch from Ulster Bank’s closure,” Patrick Farrell, Permanent TSB retail banking director, said.
“We are offering customers in these communities a very warm welcome, great service and, most importantly, new competition and choice in meeting their personal and business banking needs,” he said. PTSB’s new branches are Cavan : Clare ; Cork ; Donegal ; Dublin ; Galway ; Kildare ; Louth ; Mayo ; Meath ; Tipperary ; Wexford .
Will these be actual branches though and not just a machine? I had drive by 3 'branches' to get a bank draft in one of their banks that has a cash desk. I wasn't even lodging cash, just a withdrawal via draft
It's an odd one this, Existing PTSB branches clearly don't want customers in them , much the same as AIB & Bank of Ireland 🤔
