I recently opened a bank account in PTSB for my daughter. I needed to bring her passport, my passport, her birth cert. and a household bill. The account is attached to my account and is effectively in my name with her name in brackets after. PTSB advised that when she turns 16 the account can be transferred solely into her name. I am not sure what the system is in other banks but this seems to be how PTSB handle accounts for children. hth
Once they turn 7 they can sign / have account in their own names.
Just to clarify the staff member in PTSB who opened the account for me told me that at 16 the account could be transferred into my daughters name, can anyone confirm that this is not the case? 16 does seem a bit excessive.
