WE write regarding the closure of approximately 79 Yorkshire Bank branches. This equates to approximately 40 per cent of the total number of branches. We are disgusted at the way we and other customers have been treated.
The chief executive officer David Duffy received just over £2m in 2016 (approximately £40,000 a week) which included a £30,000 car allowance (other directors received £6,840 car allowance) and a relocation allowance of £35,000.
Will Mr Duffy and other directors who have made the closure decision be taking a 40 per cent reduction in their salaries? If not, why not?
Also, will there be any Yorkshire Bank closures in London? Any positive answers to these questions are as likely as pigs flying.
What does Mr Duffy do for his £40,000 a week apart from putting profit before customers?
