In response to questions on data used to assess branch use, a NAB spokesperson said:
"In addition to over the counter transactions that are measured at each branch, NAB also considers a range of factors including the number of appointments for home loans, personal loans and credit cards, inbound and outbound phone calls, account openings and maintenance, enquiries relating to internet banking and self-service, disputed transactions, suspected fraudulent transactions, enquiries about lost or stolen cards, supporting vulnerable customers with their transactions, customer complaints and more. Due to the varying nature of the ways customers and colleagues interact with these products and services, as well as the multiple channels in which these can be accessed and measured, these are not captured as standard over the counter transactions, but are certainly considered when assessing how each branch is used."
