A major bank is set to close two of its mountain locations. Suntrust Bank says after the New Year they're closing up a branch in Asheville and a branch in Canton. A spokesperson for Suntrust says the decision was made after careful study and and analysis. Customers will still be able to access their accounts at atm's, online or at other branches. The decision is not sitting well with customers. For those in Canton, the closest Suntrust to them is either in Waynesville or West asheville.The branch closures also mean several employees are losing their jobs. Suntrust issued the statement: We are committed to working with our teammates affected by this announcement, and they are eligible to post for other positions at Suntrust including open positions at other branches. The Asheville branch in Pack Square will close January 11th. The Canton location will close on January 18th.\ • Follow Megan on Twitter @mschieringWLOS • _______________ • Follow WLOS on social media: • WLOS ABC 13 News on Facebook: / news13 • WLOS ABC 13 News on Twitter: / wlos_13 • WLOS ABC 13 News on Instagram: / wlos_13 • Subscribe to WLOS on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/ABC13Cha... • Listen to AnchorMOMS, the Podcast: • https://wlos.com/news/anchormoms/anch... • Watch more top local news stories: • Western Loses At ETSU, Highlights and... • For all of the day’s top local and national news, visit http://www.wlos.com • Watch our live newscasts and other live video at https://wlos.com/watch • Have a news tip?
