Yeah its the same thing, BIC - The Bank Identifier Code. Its should be on any statement you have.

i rang banking 365 and they gave it to me over the phone after a couple of security questions, also your banch will give it to you over the phone if you have no statement.

yep, same thing. It's either 8 or 11 digits in length. if it's 8, just add XXX on the end if they are looking for 11.

It's not the SWIFT code. Typically it will be something like 'AIBKIE6f' and will be printed on your bank statement after your IBAN code.
