There were red faces all round when a high street bank unveiled its new look in Lowestoft town centre.Whoops.
The HSBC bank, in London Road North, has undergone a major transformation but the new sign above the main entrance caused a stir among customers when it was put up last week because its message read “Welcome to Lowerstoft”.
