You are being flagellated with unnecessary monthly fees and seem to be defending the whipping on the grounds that you deserve it.
        Free banking First Trust - lose your debit card that'll be £5... lol...charges to setup a standing order. Go on outta that...

          I called asking about it, as I was with o2 who dont exist any more, so I asked do I select o2 or 3 as my provider. They don't know. I send a text to each provider (charge 4 euro), neither arrive. They cant cancel the charges/texts either. jaysus christ.

          Huge levels of retardation going on there...
          Basically your account and cards are separate entities When your card expires and is reissued it is supposed to be an updated version of the same card (It will have a new sequence number that you don't see and doesn't form part of the pin calculation).
          As it is a reissue all the same keys are in place and there is no need for a new pin but for some reason, almost certainly to do with saving money in issuing the contactless app.

          I can understand why they might want to issue new cards but the real retardation is that any change on that scale should be done out of sequence with the expiry i.e. they should have sent the contactless upgrade as a second card that would not invalidate the old one until you used the new one with its new pin.

          Even more annoying and infuriating is the utter stupidity of them only using the cardless cash access only as an 'emergency cash' option that is associated with your card rather than your account. The way they have ist configured is that it will only work with your card pin. So for instance if I wanted to use it so that you could pick up the cash the only way we could do that is for me to tell you my card pin which would be stupid.
          The way it should work is that you can buy a voucher from your account and and set a one time pin for it and then share that with whoever you want.

              Yeah I agree. Dubs won't see it coming assuming victory. they will need to figure a way to keep the ball well away from O Shea because their full back line won't handle him imo. Should be a cracker of a game.

Is there not a twinge of doubt about the potential stupidity of that?!
                  Fair point WP.. I'll still maintain that the free service you receive from PTSB is by far inferior to the services offered by other banks who charge these inordinate fees.

Current accounts are profitable for banks in other ways (mainly upselling, but a small bit of interest earned on positive balances, interest from overdrafts) and fees don't need to be charged. Almost unheard of for fees in the UK. Its like turkeys arguing for a second christmas.
                      What would you say is the most open and competitive banking environment in the world? And what is the state of bank account charges there?

                        Anyway, lol at this free bank charges argument.

                        AIB levied a compulsory bank charge of €4,500 on every citizen in the state.

                        When you adjust for the scale of PTSB, they're just as bad. Free banking me bollix.

                                                                              I also have it set up for Google music so all my music in the same place.

                                                                              Get great use out of it when mates are over drinking or whatever. You can just pick youtube songs/videos from phone and play them on the TV with yatze. And you can queue up the videos so anyone in the room can add to the queue of songs coming on.

                                                                                Yeah. He's an awful size of a man. Things just seem to be going right for them this year, a bit like Kerry last year, things just fall into place. All the talk about Dublin again this year. A comment Ciaran Whealen made on Sunday game a few weeks ago. He said Dublin have sorted their problems from last year by playing a sweeper. If that's all they've changed up they're there for the taking by anyone.

                                                                                Would love to see Kerry Mayo go at it again anyway. The two games last year were the best I've ever seen.

Ridic deals on offer there. E.g. Santander 1-2-3 account offering interest on positive balances and cashback on paying your bills. Free account obv. In fact Bank of Ireland offering some nice current accounts for free through UK post office. Here they convince people to argue in favour of paying fees for the same account.

                                                                                        It's not size of country, just level of competition mediated by ease of switching. Hence why mobiles, car insurance are quite competitive here.

I pay next to nothing for my bank account, if anything at all. Why would I go through the hardship of getting together all these bits of documentation I probably don't have and drive myself round the bend talking to bozos in a bank or on the phone, changing to an different homogenous product for (at best) a saving of a coffee a month?

                                                                                                                    In fact I'd actually pay extra if I never had to fill out another form or get ID together unless it was absolutely necessary.

                                                                                                                    If that makes me an inertia driven fool, then so be it. I value my time and sanity more than having to deal with banks when I don't have to.
