Cheers. I guess it's not likely then. I'll ask them next week anyway tho with their online chat thing. Maybe if I explain that I don't need branch access and happy to manage the account online and post office maybe they might let me open it. Otherwise I guess I'll expect them to say northern Ireland residents only, no harm trying tho0

I opened one a couple of days ago. Switching from a bog standard Santander account which has no perks/costs. Nice to get a free fiver every month. As I live in NI I had no issues opening an account and my new mortgage is (hopefully, its not signed yet) going to be with Danske anyway
Though I know from experience that their debit cards tends to have more failed contactless payments than other bank cards. Have never understood why0 -
I opened an account beginning of this year. It works I absolutely fine. I recently opened up joint account too so that £10pm. You can have 1 joint and then 2 accounts in sole names. Can easily get £15pm.0

So why the hell do some people from England get it and others not? Seems an odd policy they have if you ask me.0

I think they must have only recently adopted the policy of no mainland residents. When I rang on behalf of someone recently they said they no longer have an appetite for non-NI customers.0 -
Thank you Ed
It's just frustrating , if only I was around here a year ago checking out great rewards that I'd have never found on my own accord. I might still ask them anyway, if not then the upside is the Barclays blue double bonus so no point being too upsetnow to see if I can cheat my way to the full co op bonus with daily PayPal transactions. Probably not
Thanks to all on here in helping me think more smarter about rewards and banking perks
