Banking services will continue to be available during the ongoing circuit breaker (7 April to 1 June), but some banks will be closing selected branches.
ATMs will continue to operate as per normal, as will insurance, broking, custody, asset management, and financial advisory services. Do remember that the vast majority of transactions can be done online, and it’s worth giving it a shot before heading down to a physical branch.
Needless to say, customer service phone lines and online chat will likely experience longer than usual wait times during this period. It’s certainly not the time to go line by line with the CSO to reconcile your credit card points!

You present information far better than the banks themselves. They should pay you.
haha thanks. most of the info is really from the banks, it’s just trying to put it in a more readable format. i find maps help everything- you just want a sense of where the closest branch to your house is.
yea, that TEAM at the bank had one job before going on homecation, still useless.
