    Danske Shut Down Telephone Banking

    I got my letter yesterday morning also. I'm glad to finally see that they have made a decision on this. Hopefully this indicates in some way that they are committed to remaining in the Irish market for the medium term at least. Would I be right in saying that when the associated automated...

    Motor Car renewal up €180??Why?

    I got my renewal notice from Zurich for a 2008 1.6 Diesel Hyundai i30CW. €595 up €135. I tried a few others for quotes, chill.ie 123.ie etc and the lowest I could get it down to was €400 which was a far inferior policy. I went on to Aviva and ended up getting a superior policy for €295! Less...

    Danske Shut Down Telephone Banking

    Some have been speculating for some time that their complete withdrawal from the Irish market is only a matter of time. It is becoming unceasingly difficult to think otherwise with the continuing downgrading of services.

    Danske Bank: Anybody have experience with this bank, good, bad & indifferent?

    I've been with Dankse for about a year now and I'm very happy with them. If you want a traditional bank where you can pop in and talk to a staff member then it probably isn't for you. I like the idea of doing the vast majority of my banking online. The Prestige account that I have costs...

    If anyone is interested in the travel insurance that comes with NIB packages details are [broken link removed]. I have no connection with NIB only that I recently opened a current account with them and it was because of that I knew where to find the information on the website.

    NIB Ditch Free Banking For New Customers and now existing customers

    An excellent viewpoint to take and one that more should focus on when deciding on whom to bank with and what product(s) to take. The focus of many has been on keeping their banking free even though free banking is becoming harder and harder to maintain. The extra benefit accounts at Ulster...

    Ok. I went into the branch and spoke to a lovely lady there about opening a Prestige account and the Platinum credit card. She said that while the normal policy is that the current account should be open for 6 months before any credit facility is considered it would possible for me to apply for...

    Switching from UB to NIB Prestige... Easy?

    I called the Personal Accounts team yesterday about opening a Prestige account. I spoke to a very mannerly and informed gentleman about switching from UB.

    Switching from UB to NIB Prestige... Easy?

    Did they happen to mention that this 6-month 'monitoring' period was standard procedure for all new applicants? Did you apply for your account completely over the phone?

    Switching from UB to NIB Prestige... Easy?

    Thanks for the heads up. It's hard to see the relevence of where the salary is paid into. If they start throwing irrelevant obstacles in my path I'll just scrap the whole move. How did they justify the six month requirement? Do you feel that you can persuade them to wave it?

    Thanks. I got that from website. I'm wondering will the credit card application be successful? Good job & salary and clean credit record but these days goodness knows what you need to get a €5k limit credit card!
