New Working Hours for FNB

FNB has announced that 58 of its branches will now be open on Sundays while 202 branches will be extending their operating hours across the country.

According to the bank, 159 branches will operate from 08h00 – 17h30 (Monday – Friday) and 08h00 – 13h00 on Saturdays, with 58 branches out of this group operating on Sundays.

These branches are located in malls around Gauteng (see list below).

Another 43 branches will extend their working hours from 09h00 – 16h00 (Monday-Friday) and 08h00 – 13h00 on Saturdays. The branch at Wits University will now operate from 09:h00 – 16:00 but will be closed on Sundays, FNB said.

“The decision to extend business hours at FNB branches is based on demand by our customers; we wanted to ensure we service them at times and locations that are convenient for them,” the bank said.

As a start, the extended FNB working hours and Sunday trading will be implemented only in Gauteng.

“The findings of the pilot in Gauteng and customers needs will be assessed at the end of a four month period before extended operating hours are rolled out to the rest of the country,” the bank said.

Notably, the branches that will operate on Sundays will not offer teller services.

“We will have staff on the ground to assist customers with their queries when using our digital platforms. Despite not having teller presence customers will still be able to conduct their banking as normal,” the group said.
