    It's not paid from Ulster Bank. Ulster Bank is owned by an English parent bank and I very much doubt the Irish state would make rent allowance payments through it. The state owns AIB, an Post and other banking institutions so it'd be easier for the state to use one of them. I remember once seeing a state check as coming from Bank of Ireland for example.

    You should probably go to your CWO, explain the situation and see what they say.

    You don't need to discuss the Ulster Bank situation because that's very unlikely to be why your money wouldn't have been paid to your AIB account. If it was, the person you talk to will probably tell you.
