New KBC Bank Hub opens on Eyre Square

KBC Bank Ireland this week opened its newest retail banking hub on Eyre Square in Galway City.

The new KBC Bank hub is the latest in a scheduled eight branch expansion taking place across Ireland over the coming 18 months. 

The new hub is a departure from the ‘high countered environment’ commonly associated with traditional branch banking, which has been replaced with a more informal, relaxed meeting space where customers can interact with KBC’s personal finance experts on a range of competitive products including savings, insurance, mortgages, and the recently launched current account.

The retail hub will be managed by Keith McDonagh who will oversee the team. KBC’s office on Dock Road will remain open for corporate banking customers.

The new hub will open from Monday to Friday between 9am and 5.30pm, with late opening on Thursdays (until 7pm) to facilitate customers and their busy schedules. This latest hub opening follows the opening of retail banking hubs in Dublin, Cork and Limerick earlier this year.

As part of the current account launch KBC is also running a current account student promotion, with €100 One4All vouchers for students opening an account for a limited time.
