    I'm currently using AIB and getting tired of repeating the same manual international transfer every month. I see no reason why people shouldn't be able to transfer to another EU country on a recurring basis without the hassle of going through all the manual steps. Does anybody know of a bank that offers standing orders to another EU country?

    AIB support it. Are you using an IBAN?

    Bank of Ireland and KBC make no distinction between any SEPA accounts.

    AIB are the only bank I know that treat non-Irish SEPA accounts as "international", because it's 100% illegal.

    They "Support It", but don't think you can "save" the BIC/IBAN yet (for internationals)

    Why would that matter for a standing order? The fact that you can't set up an international payee for ad hoc payments is a bit annoying, but for a standing order you just enter the details once

    Isn't making a distinction between domestic and foreign SEPA accounts illegal?
