If you are aged 16 to 19 years old you are eligible to apply for a Bank of Ireland UK Maestro card. With a Maestro card, you can shop and pay for your purchases directly from your account, and it also saves you carrying cash around. It’s quick, easy and a better way to pay.
Your Maestro card also allows you to pay for goods and services worldwide wherever you see the Maestro sign. It’s just like using your card in shops and at ATMs at home and it means you don’t have to travel with large amounts of cash, so it’s perfect for school trips abroad. Charges will apply when you use your card outside the UK. Please see our “Student charges explained” brochure for details. If you are under 18, we will need parental consent in order to process your application.
Remember, to be financially savvy the best thing you can do is to keep track of your spending. You can do this 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year with Bank of Ireland 365 Online and Phone. It’s so easy to apply. Register online at www.365online.com or call 08457 365 555.
