Hi

if I open a State Savings Ordinary Deposit Account, can I transfer money in and out from any other bank online, just like a bank account? So, do I get an IBAN number etc?

many thanks

Paddy

You cannot transfer money out of the account online.

The NTMA do not provide online access to this account.

Yeah it's pretty poor really (besides the very tasty rates!). I took out a five year certificate in 2010. In 2011 and 2012 I got a letter in February updating me on my balance. Nothing last year or this year. I enquired last year why they had stopped the updates but they tried to persuade me that they never send out anything. I still have the 2010 and 2011 letters filed away!!

AIB took over most of the Anglo Irish Bank Deposits and quickly removed online access and have no plans of bringing it back.

I'm a huge fan of State Savings but yes surely they need to modernise.
