Hi,
Has anyone opened up one or both of these accounts?

@Booster Bonus Account
(1) Can you drop in to a branch when convenient and open it without needing to arrange an appointment / meeting etc... with some advisor?

(2) Does this integrate fully with Open24 if you're already registered with it? (have a legacy NR account on Open24)

@Online Regular Saver
I know it's not the highest rate on the market but I like the fact that you can make ad hoc lodgements with no minimum required each month.

(1) Regarding AML is it simply writing a letter quoting the A/C number and sort code and attaching the AML docs and posting it off? (I thought it a bit strange that they ask this of existing customers as well for each new account opened but that's that)

(2) Do they return the AML docs?

Thanks.
 

(1) I have opened accounts in PTSB before without ever making an appointment.

(2) Pretty sure PTSB integrate all their accounts online these days (BoI don't).


(1) Simpler to drop the documents into the branch in person. They will accept them even if it is for an online account.
