    I remember years ago, I could basically lodge my surplus funds to my AIB credit card and I would actually earn interest on it.

    Does anyone know if this is still the case?

    I'm not talking much money, just that I generally clear my credit card balance at the end of the month, and the few bob left over till the next pay cheque comes in might be better off earning a few bob interest on my Credit Card rather than earning nothing and costing me bank charges in my current account! I generally use the CC to pay for most things anyway.

    On most new cards types no - the banks stopped offering that facility. Some older card accounts still have this feature on them however, but they generally are ones no longer on offer to new customers.

    AIB did away with it many years ago.
