Payout for Ulster Bank customers

Ulster Bank customers hit by the month-long IT meltdown which crippled the bank are to be offered a one-off 25 euro (£19) payment and free banking for three months.

Under a compensation package worth at least 35 million euro (£27 million), the bank will give the small payout to personal current account holders forced to use branch banking more often than normal.%VIRTUAL-SkimlinksPromo%
