A NEW Post Office counter is to open at a Penybanc mini-market.

The branch is due to open at Best One, Penybanc Road, on Tuesday, July 16.

The branch promises to offer a wide range of services, from posting letters and parcels to collecting and returning online shopping items. Customers will also be able to take advantage of a wide range of banking services including cash withdrawals and balance enquiries for customers of all the main UK banks.

The new Post Office services will be available Monday to Saturday from 6am to 9pm and 10am to 4pm on Sunday amounting to 96 hours of Post Office service every week.

The new branch aims to offer greater convenience to Post Office customers by extending the availability of Post Offices services in Ammanford and is part of an modernisation programme taking place across the Post Office network

The new branch joins Tycroes and Ammanford Post Offices in bringing key services to the community.

Jeremy Kiff, Post Office change manager said: “We want to make it as easy as possible for customers to pay their bills, withdraw cash from their bank accounts, and send and collect their mail at a time and place that suits them best.”

“We know how important our services are to customers and are confident that this brand new Post Office alongside our other branches, will ensure that people in the community have easy access to our services.”
