Closing that will have a disproportionate negative affect on such students.

Also the cashpoint facility is very important to those students. Having a bank onsite that understands the needs of students is very important and encourages them to come and deal with financial difficulties that arise rather than neglecting them.

Also, I would think some students would change banks if they could no longer access facilities onsite.

University is the time when many individuals open their first bank accounts. Many people then stay with the same bank for life. It would therefore seem to me that it is common business sense to have an onsite branch at the UEA which is one of the UKs leading universities
and which attracts thousands of students. Banks are always encouraging their customer to 'plan for the future'. Closing this branch seems a very shortsighted means of saving money.

All UEA students and staff won't be able to have access to any NatWest branches during working hours which is very inconvenient. This will lead to people closing their bank accounts with NatWest and opening accounts with Barclays. Also new students won't be able to open bank accounts in NatWest and they will all shift to Barclays. The only result this closure will have is huge loss for NatWest and waste of time for UEA staff and students.
I honestly don't understand the logic behind this idea. Instead of closing the branch as a solution to not having enough customers, NatWest should think of innovative ways to attract more students. There should be competition to ensure that customers receive the desirable service. By just leaving the competition and giving the monopoly to Barclays, NatWest is making a huge mistake. Does NatWest realize that they will lose all their customers in UEA?

Perhaps one alternative to closing the bank would be altering the opening hours - having a morning and evening section, rather than being open only during peak lecture and working hours (making it difficult to visit, in my experience.) It might have been nice to ask Natwest customers for their opinion!

How can the removal of a local branch serving several hundred customers be helpful? It must, surely be the case that customers who frequent and use this branch may not continue to use Nat West in the future following closure, therefore losing long term customer accounts. I would suggest a very short sighted management strategy.
I urge Nat West to reconsider.
