    Bank Of Ireland free flights, anyone?
    Berlin, here I come.

    Are there a load of T & Cs?

    BOI rang me to tell me they were upgrading my account to third level and I kinda fobbed it off as BS when they mentioned free flights.

    I didn't bother applying for them last year. . . when I went onto the site it asked to give your top three preferences for destinations. And I think they wanted a period of time you wanted for each, and all the periods had to be different or something.

    You don't get to pick exactly where you go and when, you give them a list of 3 cities and a 1 or 2 week period during which you'd like to go.

    I joined today - there was a guy dressed as a pilot outside, so I pretty much had to - and the woman said you have to use the account 5 times in October and November. Then you get your voucher for the flights with all the taxes and extras paid, with the voucher being valid until March 2011 IIRC.

    Even if there are strings attached, its better than getting a free student card. A whole 12 euro saved there... :rolleyes:

    Ah yeah but think of the long term savings you're making using your card for discounts!!

    Sure sign up for both banks...get all the freebies you can this week...
