Fees for replacement BOI Debit card?

[bilco]

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is a charge for getting a replacement BOI Visa Debit card?
Mine is cracked and will soon break fully.

Also - The contactless never worked on the card, even before it cracked

Is there a way to get a replacement card for free?

Cheers

BOI charged me for a replacement card about 2 years ago. I called them to report the my contactless had never worked.

It was the straw that broke the camels back, and I closed my account after 30+ years and moved to PTSB.

PTSB also charged me €5 to replace a lost card a few weeks back.

€8 apparently - see their website [broken link removed]

They charged me five euro, price must have gone up.

Thank you for the replies.

"Replacement of lost / stolen /damaged Card" €8.00 each

I'll ring them and try the "faulty" line, since contactless never worked on the card.

Mine was faulty, but they still charged me. However, they did refund me later when I wrote them a strongly worded email!

I rang them asking to Opt-In to contact-less, saying its never worked, and they send me a new card for free yesterday.
(Perhaps because they upgraded my card to a Premier Banking card though)
