RBS Pilot Workplace Banking at Strathclyde Business Park

Strathclyde Business Park are delighted to be one of the first sites to welcome the Royal Bank of Scotland's pilot Mobile Banking Scheme. The scheme is designed to provide convenient personal banking services to those who may not have the time or the opportunity to travel the mile into Bellshill for a bank branch.

The Workplace Banking vehicles will be on the Park every Wednesday and will provide services that all Park occupiers can use, regardless of whether they hold an account with RBS. The Mobile Bank will enable occupiers to pay bills and purchase foreign currency.

In addition RBS customers will be able to make deposits and withdrawals, and get help with their account.

The Customer Advice Bus is also available to all, with onboard MoneySense advisers on hand to provide impartial tips and advice on managing finances.

Stephen Lewis, HF's Development Director commented "We wholeheartedly support this kind of innovative venture, and are delighted to be involved in piloting the project. The service compliments the existing wide range of facilities and amenities we have in place for the 6,000 people who work here, and we're committed to continuously adding to these.

" Workplace banking is part of a wider range of services that have been launched this year via our new Occupiers website, and we have been delighted with the positive feedback received."
