FAQs

How can I reduce my fees and charges?

For a Graduate Current Account:

  • Maintain your current account balance within account limits and avoid unpaid charges, overlimit item charges and interest surcharges. If you don't have enough money in your account to pay outstanding cheques, direct debits or standing orders, talk to your branch in advance about arranging an overdraft or increasing your overdraft limit
  • If you have an agreed overdraft1, check your account regularly to ensure the balance reverts to credit for at least 30 days each year from the date the overdraft is received, in order to avoid interest surcharges. Using Bank of Ireland 365 phone and online services is an easy way to check your balance
  • Keep your statements carefully and record details of cheques on your cheque book stub. Copies are costly to provide and are charged for accordingly. Alternatively, use 365 online to select, view and print all transactions (or specific types of transaction eg all lodgements, all ATM withdrawals, etc) on your account for the previous twelve months.

Read our brochure "Schedule of fees and charges for personal customers" (PDF, 252KB) for the full list of fees and charges, including Government Duty, that apply to your current account. The Schedule of Fees and Charges brochure is also available in your local branch

  1. Lending criteria and terms and conditions apply to overdraft applications (including applications for overdraft increases). When your two-year Graduate Account Package has expired, a fee of €25 will apply for any negotiation or annual renewal in respect of an overdraft facility.
