    Hey guys,

    Im a Junior Freshman in TCD and hold a 3rd level account with Bank of Ireland. I am using my account quite a bit so was looking for some regarding free return flights to Europe.

    Didn't seem to be able to find any info online. How can I apply for the flights? Is there an application form or is it done online?

    Thanks!

    Regards,
    K.

    Thanks for your reply Pat.

    One last thing, when it says "use your account 10 times", does it include any transactions such as paying from the account with a Visa Debit card or is it only strictly cash transactions?

    Thanks!

    Hi Billy,
    I'm just wondering, do you have to be 18 from the get go or 18 before you get your flights? I'll be 18 in early January.. Am I still eligible for this offer?

    Hi Thebanter.

    Thanks for your query.

    All students must be 18 at the time of travel.
    For the terms and conditions of our Free Flight Offer, please see here.

    Any further queries, please ask.

    Hi i was just wondering, last year it says the 10 transactions must include 1 online transaction but it doesnt say that in this years terms and conditions. Im assuming that only applied last year?
    thanks

    Hi linda93,

    Thanks for posting.

    They can be any type of transaction and do not need to include an online transaction. Please note, the transactions need to be between 1st July and 31st October 2012.

    Thanks,

    hey I haven't heard anything about the flights and I definitely used my account more than 10 times in that period, is it just me or has anybody else got info?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 414 ✭✭Bank of Ireland: Laura


    Hi sprucemoose.

    Flight vouchers were issued to all eligible customers in December.
    As you have not yet received anything from us, please contact your account holding branch and a representative will be happy to check the status of this for you.

    Thanks for your query.

    Hi
    I received my application form on the 11th of Dec and sent it away on the 12th. It said that I would get a phone call within 28 days. I know the 28 days are not up but can I be confident that I will get my flights?
    Thanks, Niall
