Changing account — don't bank on it being easy
Thousands of banking customers need to work out how they can transfer their current accounts before their bank pulls out of the Irish market.
It’s well over a year since Ulster Bank’s parent company Natwest announced it would be pulling out of the Irish market after 160 years.
Its chief executive Jane Howard said the changes for customers “will happen over the coming years” but one of those changes looms large — the move of some 90,000 accounts to a different bank.
