The permanent home of the Prescot Banking Hub was officially opened last week, Friday 9 January.

Cllr Tony Brennan, Knowsley Council’s Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Economic Development cut the ribbon to mark the occasion and welcome the Banking Hub to their new home on Eccleston Street in Prescot town centre.

The Hub offers face-to-face cash and banking services and is open Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm.

Customers of all major banks and building societies can access cash and banking services.

At the Banking Hub, customers will be able to:

  • Withdraw cash (notes and coin)
  • Deposit cash (notes and coin)
  • Deposit cheques
  • Pay utility bills
  • Check account balance
  • Collect change (registered business customers)

Customers will also be able to talk to a Community Banker from their own bank, on the day that bank is in the Hub:

Monday: NatWest
Tuesday: Lloyds
Wednesday: Santander
Thursday: Barclays
Friday: Halifax

There is a private space where you can talk face-to-face about more complicated banking enquiries like payments and transfers, managing your account, and how to use online banking.

Cllr Tony Brennan, Knowsley’s Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Economic Development said: “I am delighted to welcome the new permanent Banking Hub to Prescot town centre. The hub will provide much needed banking and other important everyday services for local residents and businesses.”

While the site for the permanent hub was being refurbished, a hub was opened at a temporary location at Unit 11, Prescot Shopping Centre. The temporary location is now closed.

Banking Hubs are owned by Cash Access UK and operated by the Post Office. If you would like to know more about the banking hubs, please contact cashaccessuk@cicero-group.com.
