co-op bank? (1 Viewer)

[MARTIN GOLLY]

anyone know is there any in ireland?

 

[JenFast]

dunno possibly not, or maybe not yet.... saw an advert for it yesterday.... it seems great from the outside but with most things involving money small print is always there somewhere...hopefully its all it seems though

 

[MARYJANE]

uh.. you mean the credit-union?

 

[Gambra]

Yeah, the credit union dude. It's where all the punx are. Right?

 

[AnarchoBob]

Does having an account with UlsterBank make me un-punx? !ninjaaaa

 

[Janer]

You have a bank account???

 

[AnarchoBob]

I do indeed !ninjaaaa

I am SOOOOO un-punx

 

[Janer]

do you pay PAYE or whatever the fuck they call it these days?

 

[MARTIN GOLLY]

you can get the dole in the bank these days (dole is punk related) and the internet on computers

 

[MARTIN GOLLY]

Yeah, the credit union dude. It's where all the punx are. Right?

are the credit union dodgy? do they invest any of the money in dodgy stuff?

 

[JenFast]

dont think so

 

[AnarchoBob]

Indeedy! I get my dole straight into my account. So suppose that the dole being punx and having a bank account being un-punx counterbalance.

Not that I know of. I don't even think they do the whole hedge fund/investment thing:

as far as I know Triodos have had a lending arm of the bank in Ireland for some time. http://www.triodos.co.uk/uk/business_banking/business_finance/irish_office/

It might be worth contacting them to see if they have any plans to move properly into Ireland.

I don't have any personal experience of banking with them. I do all my stuff through the co-op at the moment as they are the only high-street bank here that tries to keep its shit in order.
