Bendigo Bank Wodonga - Another Closure?

Services
1

Recently (May 2026) I visited my local branch of the Bendigo bank in Wodonga as my credit card had too many ‘read errors’ when swiping it so time to ask for a replacement.

Imagine my dismay when visited the bank to see that the branch was closed - no reason given!

After eventually contacting the Bendigo Bank support line (they had to ring me back after 30 min due to traffic) I was told that the Wodonga branch was temporarily closed because of a ‘Lack of staff ‘

I was advised to use the Albury branch in NSW.

Not good enough Bendigo Bank, now I have to work out how to transfer my periodic payments to a more reliable bank that actually offers face to face customer service!

Bendigo Bank website shows the Wodonga branch as being temporarily closed and not permanently closed:

This suggests it will reopen sometime in the future.

You are lucky there was another Bendigo Bank branch just over 6km away. If our local Bendigo Bank temporarily closed, our next nearest branch is over 50km away. While it might be somewhat inconvenient, it might be why Bendigo has temporarily closed the Wodonga branch due to ‘lack of staff’ rather than temporarily transferring staff from other branches, as an alternative branch is nearby.
