Cash lodgement for rent

    Hi, this is probably a really silly (but quick) question ... I'm moving into a new rented accomodation next month and the landlord wants the rent lodged to their bank account.

    They're with BOI. So I'm just wondering, if I lodge it in cash in the nearest BOI branch, will I be able to give them a reference/description for it so they know it's from me?

    (I know I could send it via internet banking, but I have it out in cash already as I thought this was what they would have wanted.)

    Thanks.

    Yes - you can ask them to put the information in the transaction: it's called the narrative (i.e. they can enter "John Smith" or "3 Sunny Ave" etc to identify the cash)

    But mention this before you give them the money, otherwise they might lodge it before you get a chance to tell them you want a narrative.

    As far as I know, bank of Ireland no longer allow a narrative to be entered on lodgements ..unless it is for a mortgage account or MABS payment.
