Lloyds Banking Group, which owns Halifax, Lloyds Bank and Bank of Scotland, will shut down 10 branches across the UK in June.

It comes after a huge 48 per cent drop in face-to-face transaction at the various branches over the past five years, it said.

A spokesperson for Halifax said: "Most customers are now using our mobile banking app, internet banking or calling us instead.

"This means they are using branches less."

The bank will now have 756 branches left open, down from more than 2,000 10 years ago.

Halifax will be closing more banks later in the year.

Lloyds Banking Group said in January it would close 61 Lloyds, 61 Halifax and 14 Bank of Scotland branches between May this year and March 2026.

The group blamed the decision to shut the branches on customers shifting away from banking in person to using mobile services.
