Bank branches to stay open until 7pm this evening

Friday, 22 June 2012 01:00

NatWest and Isle of Man Bank braches in Douglas, Castletown, Peel will remain open until 7pm later following major technical issues in the UK.

Overnight payments and balance updates are not appearing on customers’ statements, which has caused confusion and concern for hundreds of thousands of people.

Parent company RBSI has stressed this is simply a technical issue and will not affect any customers’ payments.

The bank has apologised for the inconvenience and said the Isle of Man Bank Regent Street branch will be open 9.30am-1.30pm as usual tomorrow.
