Ulster Bank comes under fire in Oireachtas meeting as they prepare to leave Irish market

Heated exchange at an Oireachtas Committee meeting with Sinn Féin's Pearse Doherty saying it was Ulster's agenda to 'get out of town as quickly as possible'

Customers were told by Ulster Bank that they do not need to take any action until they receive their formal letter.

An Oireachtas committee has raised concerns about the problems facing customers with overdrafts who have to switch banks as Ulster and KBC prepare to close their doors in the Republic.  

John McGuinness, the Fianna Fáil chair of the Finance Committee, raised concerns that customers were not getting appointments with other banks to set up new accounts.
