My wife and I have a joint current a/c, can I lodge a cheque made out to her into this a/c? She thinks I cannot, I think I can........
 
The bank will tell you that you can't but of you lodge it in an ATM they are unlikely to return it.

I recently had a major bank refuse to lodge a cheque that was made out to the bank. Seems insane but true.

Yes, you can lodge it to your joint account, as long as she signs the back of it
 
I've had no problem lodging cheques made out to my wife into our joint AIB account but YMMV.
