I am honestly overwhelmed by how many of you have stepped up to help save our local branch. If we can reach that next milestone of 250 signatures, it would show the bank exactly how much this community relies on them.

I have been overwhelmed by the stories people are sharing about how much this bank means to our daily lives. Your experiences are the engine driving this effort and I am just doing my best to organize the momentum you all created.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many people joined this effort so quickly. It feels like we are on the verge of hitting one hundred signatures if we just keep the momentum going for a little longer. It is your commitment that keeps this going.

This has been my branch for over 30 years, I live in an area with very poor broadband so internet banking difficult. I do not want my account to be automatically transferred to Nantwich - so I fear I will be ending banking with NatWest.
It is ludicrous to have a huge Bank building but a sensible smaller one would be invaluable to this growing community. Internet banking is NOT ACCEPTABLE to many older people and the Post Office will NOT be able to cope with both Nat West and HSBC customers.
Rural communities need a minimum of one bank for shopkeepers to deposit cash and older people to use. The banks were happy for the communities of this country to bail them out in the crash, they now need to come up with a joint answer to supporting the community in return.
When we moved to Tarporley in 1995 we needed a household account and opened one with HSBC. This branch has now closed so I transferred my account to Nat West since I need an easily accessible bank. If this branch closes I will need to transfer again to another bank!
I use this bank on a weekly basis for my business banking. If it was to close I would have to travel to Chester just to deposit cheques, a one hour round trip. I'd probably end up leaving Natwest to be honest.
Keep it open we need it and will use it.
NatWest is not listening to customer concerns. Tarporley has a large elderly population & rural community who use the branch regularly. Tarporley is at least 10 miles from the nearest town (Chester) which for those who don't drive has a 'basic' bus service. NatWest seems to have forgotten its TV advertising pledge to keep the 'last' branch open.

I have used the NATWEST bank for over 40 yrs.I also had an account at HSBC which closed - the service at their Chester branch is appalling, as is the bus service from Tarporley to ~Chester I will soon be unable to drive. I desperately need the NATWEST bankto remain open for business.
