We are required to seek proof of Child’s PPS (Older Medical Cards, EHIC Card, Official Document, Social Welfare Correspondence etc.) Unfortunately, current legislation does not allow us to accept a public services card.
You can decline to provide the PPSN at this stage. However, when the child becomes an adult with a borrowing need - we will have to get it at that stage.
Minor Accounts must be opened in a branch.
An initial lodgement of €5 is required to activate membership.
