About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At closing time one night, an employee noticed something peculiar on the security camera feed. A regular, bundled up against the cold, had left through the staff exit—and then reappeared moments later, walking backwards down the street. The employee watched in confusion as the figure walked backward into a delivery van that just happened to be leaving at exactly the same moment. The next morning, everyone joked that maybe it was a new bank service—reverse withdrawals.

2. A customer asked the teller, ‘Do you ever see strange things happen here?’ The teller shrugged and replied, ‘Only when I’m not paying attention.’ Then a regular came in, clearly agitated. ‘Did anyone else notice that our ATM just spit out a twenty with Abraham Lincoln’s head sideways? It looks like he’s giving us the thumbs-up!’ Everyone burst into laughter, realizing it was just another day at RBS.

3. Have you heard? There's supposedly a ghostly figure lurking around after hours at RBS. Some say they’ve seen an old gentleman in a tweed suit, gently whispering into empty desks. Others claim he’s just a friendly spirit, helping out with calculations when no one is watching. But don’t worry—after a while, he always disappears with a quiet chuckle and a wave, as if reminding everyone that even ghosts need their sleep.

4. Have you heard that sometimes, late at night, a mysterious voice can be heard whispering numbers from behind the vault door at RBS? One evening, a delivery driver swears he saw an old man in a trench coat leaving the building after hours. When security checked the CCTV, they found nothing but an empty corridor. To this day, some employees still bring snacks for ‘the night auditor’ who supposedly helps them count their shifts.
