Banking Services At Post Offices Soon

An agreement should be signed within the next few days between Bank Pocztowy and Poczta Polska post office, regarding the opening of banking services at post offices. All necessary licenses to operate have already been acquired. Final approval had to be given by Transport Minister Jerzy Polaczek; he has now given the go ahead. The deal will allow banking services to be rendered by Bank Pocztowy in 5,000 post office outlets. “We shall provide our clients with all basic banking services, such as a good and competitive current account, access to which will be over the post office counter, telephone, Internet and through cash machines. Our clients will only have to pay PLN3.95 per month for their accounts. To my knowledge, we do not have a competitor who would offer such good conditions. There are of course certain niche offers, but without such easy access to one’s account,” said Piotr Kaminski, head of Bank Pocztowy.
