may not be college?, not clear from postYou should wait and let your son set up his own student account when he starts in college, the banks usually are falling over each other with special offers/discount cards in the first week of college, why tie him to your bank?
You should join AIB who ring mEe on a weekly basis to ask if I am happy with their service...Each week, I ask them not to ring me again...and then the following week comes and guess what........I very rarely go into my bank, even less would I have reason to ring them. But today I had to ring, my son needs a student account setting up and I wanted to know if we need an appointment and what to bring along.
Ring branch on their direct number to met with a series of Press 1,2 and so on options. Press 3 for new account queries. Rings and ring and rings so I hang up and try again. This time go through to press for operator assistance...who cannot help me as I need to speak to customer services. Get put through to them only to get a recorded message and have to leave my name and number. That was 2 hours ago....
When did they become so bad, are they all like this now?
He is starting college in a few weeks so just wanted to have it in place before he goes, knowing him he would never get round to it. Only staying with our bank as it will be quicker to transfer money over if he is stuck.
As for the bank, they eventually rang me back after I left a second message...but I was suprised at not being able to get through the branch straight away like the good ole days!
Newbie said:They throw the application forms and little incentives at the new students coming in. Really, he couldnt fail BUT to open an account...
