I rang AIB yesterday to find out what documents are required to open an account. I was ringing on behalf of an EU National.
I was told she needed a photo ID (that's not a problem) but she needs proof of address, utility bill etc. Her flatmates names are on the utility bills, she does not have a car in Ireland etc. I asked if a letter stating her PPS number would be sufficient and I was told yes, however when she went in to open the account yesterday afternoon, she was told this was not sufficient.
Does anybody know a bank that would accept this letter as proof of address?
Thanks
