When did you last go into a bank branch?
Barclays has just announced more bank closures. These days, many people access banking services online, via an app or by phone. So is the bank branch a dying need? How often do you typically use a branch – other than just to use an ATM/machine in there - for PERSONAL (non-business) banking?

We try to use technology to limit voting to one per person. Occasionally, this may erroneously block a few people's votes (eg, from shared offices). Apologies for that.
