Hello,
I saw this on http://www.rte.ie/news/2007/0327/banking.html?rss
From rte webpage
"Using credit or debit cards to make a cross-border transaction should become easier and cheaper, according to an agreement reached by EU finance ministers in Brussels.
From January 2008 consumers and small businesses across the EU will avail of a new 'single payments area' which could save the EU economy between €50bn and €100bn a year."
From what I understand at the end of this year I no longer have to have an Irish bank account and can shop around in Europe and have a German or Spanish account with the benefits they they may provide (Visa Debit cards, advanced internet banking)?
Regards.
