I don't want to use my non-euro foreign credit card in Ireland, either it gets blocked, or I get screwed with extortionate exchange rates by some card machines in petrol stations and small shops. Anyone know any expat friendly banks.

The credit card will be the problem alright. I don't know of any credit card provider that doesn't require Irish residence upon application. Having an Irish card and moving abroad seems to be no problem but getting one from abroad is. Best of luck.
