I got an email back from our HR department detailing the instructions that I needed to go through to set up an account with AIB. I went down to the local branch and was unfortunately treated to the same level of service as my last visit. The same girl helped me. and she didn't really seem like she wanted to. However, halfway through the transaction, another banker took over and she was quite helpful.
I don't have a bank account set up yet, but I was able to apply for one. Since the local branch of AIB doesn't hold the account for my company, they had to take all of my information, photocopy it and send it to the bank at City Centre.
So now I just need for the mail to get to City Centre, the person there to setup my account - providing that I gave them the right information, then wait for them to send me my information via mail. My hopes aren't high that this is going to work out. I may just go downtown and apply at the downtown bank in person.
I have also found that the definition of "banker's hours" was probably created in Ireland - banks are open M-F 10am - 4pm, so I may need to take some more time off work to do this. That's hard to do when we've got a lot of deadlines to hit on our project.
