Apply to run a Banking Hub: On average, it normally takes about 2 months from when you receive your application link to when you get appointed but this can be dependent on any legal work that may need to be completed.. If you are buying an existing Post Office, it can then take between 4-8 weeks until your transfer day. If you are adding a Post Office to your retail shop, it depends on the installation of your Post Office counter.
