Tech outages leave services down at AIB and PTSB

AIB and Permanent TSB both experienced technical outages yesterday which meant that customers were unable to access their accounts.

AIB suffered a two-hour outage, during which customers were unable to access their accounts online or through the bank’s in-branch terminals. The outages resulted in large queues in branches across the country.

The PTSB outage only affected the bank’s online system briefly.
