Did anyone else experience problems with NIB this evening? I couldn't use my laser card in stores or from a cashpoint at 5.30pm and it still wasn't working at 7.30. I also tried a BOI mastercard and that wasn't working either. I had plenty of funds available in these accounts. I had to resort to a little used Visa card to save my embarressment. I phoned online banking when I got home and they said they knew of the problem with their systems and were getting them back as soon as possible. They said cashpoints were back but not lasers. I went out at 7.30 to use a BOI cashpoint and still no joy (maybe only NIB cashpoints were back). I've never known such a loss of service due to the banks.
