Re: [Talk-GB] NatWest / RBS Branch closures

[Andrew Hain]

Are there quality assurance tools that flag out of date names like Lloyds TSB?

There are still "Lloyds TSB" branches to mop up too over 4 years since their 
demerger (over 600 matches based on March 2017 GB OSM extract), Are we able to 
list all of these points of interest conveniently in a tool? Overpass Turbo

It's a fairly general problem. Recording the list & annotating the OSM features 
sounds a good idea.

I was wondering what the best approach might be to track these:

  *   Notes on all relevant branches. We've done this in the past for smaller 
chains (Netto, American Apparel) and the notes do get closed eventually when 
someone re-surveys an area. Easier to spot now through phone apps like Vespucci 
& OSMAnd
  *   Fixmes on the branches. As above, but a little less visible
  *   A wiki page listing branches & their equivalent OSM Id
  *   A umap instance

Any thoughts?

And don't lets forget the thoussands of phone boxes about to be made
redundant by BT. Perhap the UK Chapter should start contacting these
companies officially and asking for  data especially the schedule of
closures?

Re: [Talk-GB] NatWest / RBS Branch closures

[SK53]

I created a dynamic umap

(following RobJN's instructions) for this, based on an idea of Ed
Loach.Plenty left in London (including on Oxford St) & in the West Midlands.

And yes this is a generic issue, which is why the latest round of banking
closures is as good a reason as any to raise it again.

Lloyds Banking Group will close some bank branches (listed at 
https://www.lloydsbank.com/contact-us/branch-closures.asp ) and 
Yorkshire Building Society will close more (listed at 
http://www.ybs.co.uk/changes/index.html ).

features sounds a good idea.

[Talk-GB] NatWest / RBS Branch closures

[SK53]

RBS are planning another massive round of branch closures (a full list here

).

I was wondering what the best approach might be to track these:

   - Notes on all relevant branches. We've done this in the past for
   smaller chains (Netto, American Apparel) and the notes do get closed
   eventually when someone re-surveys an area. Easier to spot now through
   phone apps like Vespucci & OSMAnd
   - Fixmes on the branches. As above, but a little less visible
   - A wiki page listing branches & their equivalent OSM Id
   - A umap instance
