Large queues at Bank of Ireland ATMs this evening.

What does a fully loaded ATM hold, think I heard €250k mentioned before.
That's my point, ergo they themselves will defacto have no weekly payment until their account is back in balance. It will be paid, they just wont be able to withdraw it. If on the disability or whatever that puts those people in a bad place for as much time as however much is overdrawn. Very odd thing to do.
Payments are 210, 220 per week? If 1000 overdrawn that's over 4 weeks with no money to withdraw.
That's why I was saying earlier the banks won't have any option but try and work out a payment plan.
Logs. There's transaction logs, online banking log in records, attempted withdrawal logs. The data will be there as required to be an operating Regulated Financial Services Provider. Shouldn't be difficult at all to build a picture and figure out who was aware of what and spot where intent is clear.
So the BOI account it was transferred to Revolut from will go from 0 to -1000, with welfare coming in bringing it to -800. Any incomings would essentially go directly to paying it back.
The Navan queue video is mostly Travellers and Roma people.
So they will just open up a new bank account with some other bank and never repay the money?
the ones that will lose sleep are the folks with jobs that withdrew money as they will have to pay it back.
The ones without jobs, wont have to pay it back.
What do you think would have happened if the gardai weren't there and the last person before the ATM shut down stuck their card in 3 times? Or someone decided to skip the queue?
They SHOULD have been there for public order reasons, but It doesn't look like that's why they were there.
Moscow.
True. But its also a vaild reason not to lock out ATMs
Large queues still at ATMs around the country.
Where are you off to then?
its not about the payments themselves, its the fact they wont have the means to pay back the grand they just withdrew from the ATM.
Ehhhhhhh it's very simple to stop payments that are due to go into accounts.
Do you seriously think the type of people taking the piss here care about their future credit rating or status with banks? It's already shot in most cases
In any case, for the few non dodgy people there's online bank accounts freely available now
Crime stats will be down everywhere tonite
They'll all be too busy at the ATMs
Doesn't matter a f**k. They'd probably go back and shave off yet more overheads to increase their profit margins. This continuing incompetence by private banks may eventually lead to central bank digital currency (CBDCs) moving closer to reality IMO. If this is the shoe up the backside to make them get their house in order, bring it on I say.
but they can still withdraw cash that they dont have from the ATM.
They have no means of paying it back.
Who were already emigrating. Alot more than 1000 were withdrawn from some accounts tonight.
Exactly. With everything that's going on.
Yes they made over €1billion in profit for the first 6 months of this year, more than enough for them to call up private security to man the ATM's.
Eh not quite- any payments mandated to go into their accounts over the coming days or even weeks are now too late to stop- ie social welfare payments most likely- so these will soak up at least some if not most of the money withdrawn-in addition criminal prosecutions or indeed arrests are highly unlikely at this point- but you can be refused a bank account and that can make life very difficult for you -I think you’ll find many of these “idiots” will eventually come to their senses when they realise just what idiots they really are
They'll need something to fill their time when their next wage packet is for 39 euro.
I doubt many will lose sleep. I read somewhere that BOI profits were up 1 billion in the first quarter alone. Hopefully a lot of people who havent much filled their boots tonight.
Exactly. Its not like people are robbing a bank.
Oh wait....
Exactly not a garda matter, they shouldn't get involved
Does anyone know what was the outcome of the ATM that was loaded incorrectly a few years back where something like the €20's were loaded with €50's so if you withdrew €60 you were actually getting €150?
You realise if they have an account with BOI, the bank has their details, right? Or if they’re using an AIB, then AIB have their details, or Revolut, etc etc.
I did not hear of anyone stealing an atm…… on the other hand there might be a need to preserve law and order when it dawns on people that. ATMs have a limited amount of cash and it might run out before they get their free money.
They will continue to be charged fees for **** all service.
Emigrating with €1000? Where are they off to, The Congo?
