Halifax, which is part of the Lloyds Banking Group, said the decision was made after assessing the potential impact on customers, including their continued access to banking services.
As of January 2025, Lloyds, Halifax and Bank of Scotland customers can visit branches across any of these three banks for everyday banking, as they’re all part of the same group.

An independent review could also mean a Banking Hub or Deposit Service may be set up in a nearby location.
