Ok, I know very little about banks as I have only ever needed to open one bank account and that was nearly 5 years ago.
Anyways, I have been with Bank of Ireland for nearly 5 years. I don't have any majoy problems with them, only that they refuse to give me a debit card because I am in debt with T-Mobile. Told me I have to clear that first and wait another 6months or so before I can apply for one with them. Though I was told to just open an account with another bank.
If I do, which one do you suggest?
And do you know if they check your credit history first?

ALso, with T-mobile, they may not even be on your credit rating. I never pay that bill on time but I know that they do not report to the credit thing, for me at least.
