Hi there,
I was looking for another safe account to put some money in and opened an esaver online last weekend with the Ulster Bank. Having gone through the application ok I was informed I would get the paper work in the post. Nothing happened, so I just phoned them and was told this was not available to me as I was in England ...
1. why did they let me do the application ... surely at postcode stage entry it should have stopped
2. How come I have seen it recommended here?
Frustrated & feeling a bit silly that I told a friend to apply ...

I thought it was open to people throughout the UK. Hope so as the wife is about to open an account.
Try calling again and see if you get a different answer this time!0 -
Try quoting Section 27.1 Page 32 of the following document to them:

And I assume you applied via the NI website and not the RoI website ;-)0
