Hi Norfbank,
So you know where we stand, we offer a Maestro debit card. (the mastercard equivalent of the visa debit card) The An Post debit card that was mentioned earlier in the thread is actually the Postbank debit card that is provided in conjunction with our current account, the Everyday account.
In regard to the fees around using this card, we charge €5 per non-Euro ATM withdrawal and €2.50 per non–Euro debit card usage. For clarity, we will not charge any withdrawal fees or debit card fees anywhere in the eurozone. Government stamp duty is also applied to the account each year as with all ATM/debit cards, but there are no other fees or charges in relation to the usage of the card itself. We do also offer free banking on everyday transactions as standard.
In regard to acceptance of the card, the vast majority of retailers who accept Visa and Mastercard will also accept the Maestro debit card as a form of payment.
Regards,
Postbank
