My problem ... I have had enough of the Irish banks and want nothing to do with them any more. I have dosh in two Irish Nationwide accounts and dosh in a AIB current account. Irish Nationwide don't do bank transfers, they just do cheques. Will Rabo accept a cheque from Irish Nationwide ?????? If not how do I move the dosh? What are my choices for current accounts? I see no current account best buys. TNX.

Open your account first, then post the cheque.

Current account best buys are here: http://www.askaboutmoney.com/showthread.php?t=21774

The below account would seem to suit your needs:

Credit Interest Rate: Zero

Hi,

Just to note, I was in INBS about a month ago and was told that if a withdrawal is for greater than 5K they can transfer it to the other bank; if less than this it has to be taken as a cheque.
