COVID has shut my bank for the week.

[Totally Tunsie]

I logged in to make a bill payment and found the notice. Closed for the week. If anyone needs access to a safe deposit box, they are directed to call another branch to contact someone with access.

Another nearby branch is closed today and tomorrow.

Four other branches are open for drive-up only due to lack of staff.

This is in eastern MA.

1. Do you mean the entire banking operation (online) is closed or just the

in-person services?

2. In-person services at my local branch are closed,

including the drive-up window. There is no staff on hand.

Corporate HQ is open, and so are most of the branches but for drive-up only - no inside access to customers. One other branch fully closed today and tomorrow.

Online is available for its usual purposes.

3. Around here they are also permanently closing branches due to lack of customer traffic

Some branches no longer offer teller services -- just ATMs and financial consultants.

4. Mine too. More than a week.

Bank of the West. Wife had a big hassle getting in our safe deposit box.
