As you leave your home to go to the bank, you may ask yourself, 'Are the banks open today?' Most banks are open five days a week. The one exception would be legal holidays. Some banks are open Saturdays but usually only half the day. Most banks extend their hours of operation on Fridays. Usually a bank's hours are from 9:00am until 5:00pm Monday through Thursday, and 9:00am until 6:00pm on
. Fridays. Some banks feel their customers need that extra hour in order to get to the bank and cash or deposit their checks. Generally, banks are closed on Sundays.
