Allied Irish Bank (AIB)

After deciding to relocate to England to get a job somehow the AIB keep trying to take money out of my partners unused BOI account costing us penalties for not having money in that account. We can't find any evidence of a Direct Debit or Standing order to take money out of this account and when I try to telephone AIB long distance I am put on hold for over 10 minutes and give up. What kind of service is this?

I use AIB online banking a lot these days, I find it easy to use, and with the 'codecard', I feel it is safe!

When internet banking was called 24hr banking, I often phoned the call centre after i finish work (late at night/early morn) to be told that the system is down for maintainence, and they could not access my details, unless i called back at 8Am! less convenient.

Moreover the internet banking system doesn't allow you to change your address or telephone numbers. I use HSBC, Citibank, NAB and ING. All come with a 2FA devices that gives a second passwords, international money transfer, change of addresses etc. etc.

The Allied Irish Bank online banking account offers flexibility, so you can do just about anything that you need.

I also use Bank of Ireland and Ulster Bank online. AIB allows you far more options online, such as setting up standing orders or international fund transfers.
