TSB are consistently letting down their Northern Irish customers

System

I was aware of the the difference - we have more than our fair share of Ulster people in Scotland.

The point of the thread, much like one a few days ago, is that TSB advertise local banking for Britain not the UK.

Another British person who doesn't know the difference between Northern Ireland and Ulster!

So Ulster and Northern Ireland are not the same thing, and Northern Ireland is not a Province - despite British politicians endlessly referring to it as one.

Meath is one of the twelve counties in Leinster.

It was historically the fifth central province though, sometimes written as mide?

Always struggle with the Irish alphabet, it doesn't look logical from a Welsh perspective.

Britain is a colloquial term for the UK (and British Isles), not Great Britain

On their website they say ' 580 branches across the U.K.'

Works both ways though. I live in England and was visiting Belfast in October. I was very interested in a Danske Bank Reward current account which pays out £7 a month - I was prevented from doing so because I don't live in Northern Ireland. Even walking into a branch didn't help. At least you could have got your TSB account if you could have visited a branch.

Does it have too many vowel and a structure?

My neighbourhood shop has:

1 branch across my city.
It also has 1 branch across the 'U.K.' too.
It also has 1 branch across the European Union at the same time.

No, just very alien.

Not as bad as English obviously, which isn't really a language at all, but a motley collection of German with a chunk of French and everything else nicked from every language imaginable.
