Disappointment: The Bendigo Bank has announced it will be closing the Tarwin Street branch on May 14.

MORWELL is losing yet another banking outlet as Bendigo Bank announced it is closing the Tarwin Street branch on May 14. Bendigo’s Morwell customers are set to be transferred to Traralgon, but the Moe and Trafalgar branches will remain open for face-to-face banking. Morwell customers can also use the

Bank@Post service at the Princes Drive post office, or use any Australia Post outlet. It comes after the ANZ closed its Commercial Road branch last year, shoehorning its customers to Traralgon, followed by the departure of the Commonwealth Bank announced a planned relocation to Mid Valley. A Bendigo spokesman said the bank had reviewed the Morwell branch before

making the “difficult” decision to exit the town “after considering other options”. The spokesman said an increasing number of the bank’s customers were completing their day-to-day banking online or over the phone. He said the Morwell branch staff would be offered redeployment opportunities within the bank. “We understand this change may impact how some customers conduct

their banking. The way people choose to conduct their banking continues to change,” the spokesman said. “As a result, the bank regularly reviews its physical branch network, customer transaction activity and visitor numbers to ensure it continues to meet those changing needs.” Continued on page 4
