We have 3 Ulster Bank accounts and an UB credit card so am afraid our fees are going to be high! Do you think there will be a charge for transferring between UB accounts online?
Does anyone know the department in Ulster Bank where I can send an email about my uFirst Gold Account. The uFirst Gold accounts/rewards are handled by Affinion. I want to bypass Affinion and go directly to Ulster Bank. Thanks
No, it's €0.20it seems UB charge €2 to receive any payment in euro from a SEPA European account?
I could live with that. Thanks. Their website says €2 per incoming payment received. I can't include link here as I'm new. Will validate soon enough. I've sent 2 euro to n26 and will send it back when it arrives.No, it's €0.20
...
But are people counting pennies when they should be watching the pounds? ....
we need to consider not just the proposed charges, but also what services are provided.
Apart from the obvious answer reminiscent of the joke that starts "Why does a dog ...", Irish banks carry far more risky assets (a.k.a. mortgages) and as a result need to keep reserves, money which would otherwise be lent out and earning them interest.Why are these charges applied on UB accounts here and not on NI UK accounts ?
quality of the service which should matter
any opinions on KBC's Current Account?
In addition to what @PinkLloyd said above, these bank funds are placed in the market at negative 0.4%. The GBP 1 month rate is positive 0.75%.Why are these charges applied on UB accounts here and not on NI UK accounts ? I pay no fees on my UK UB account .
Interestingly, if you are referring to a debit /ATM card, if you have an Irish address your UK bank should be charging you this.Same goes for that annual Visa card stamp duty, banking for the consumer in Ireland is expensive
