It's a pity that some of you think I'm making this up. I seem to lack credibility everywhere...
I am paid by BACS transfer in the fouth week of every month. "Salary cheque" is merely a turn of phrase. The bank is Allied Irish Bank. I am on the electoral roll. I have had the account for 6 years."That which does not kill you will hurt like hell", Friedrich Nietzche.0 -

A visit to a Metro Bank branch with a few months Allied Irish Bank statements should result in a current account being opened on the spot and an overdraft within 3 days if not instantly
