Can somebody PLEASE tell Guy Anker that Ulster Bank does not have 1.9 Million customers, that's the population of Northern Ireland. Ulster Bank is beleived to have approx 400,000 customers across Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.

...although many MSE-ers joined Ulster Bank a couple of years ago, to take advantage of their good savings rates. If you lived in England, that was OK, you were given Belfast City as your branch, but could access the account online.

From the Ulster Bank website: "Ulster Bank provides a comprehensive range of financial services across the Island of Ireland. It serves the needs of its 1.9 million personal and business customers through a network of 236 branches and has a business banking presence in every county."

Can anyone say for certain if your credit file is harmed because of this will the bank fix it or leave it to the customer to sort it out??
Lately Nat west have done nothing but rile their customers. Just look at the debit card swindle they pulled off not long ago!.

Both my son and daughter bank with Ulster Bank, this morning they were told that they had no money in their account as they had overdrawn, they both have a normal account with no overdraft facilities so how can they both be overdrawn by over £100.00 each.
After all that's what the computer system tells the bank staff so i guess the computer must be right. Or is it? :money:
