Open second current account online? (Ulster Bank)

    Hello,

    With my Swiss bank (no no, nothing illegal, I am actually Swiss), I am able to login online to my eBanking and open up a second current account, without the need to physically drop by the bank.
    I was wondering if this is possible with Ulster Bank as well. I am in need of a second current account, however I am not in Ireland for the next 4 weeks. I logged into the eBanking of UlsterBank but couldn't find anything straight away.
    The reason for this is, that I have several payments coming in and want them to be separate from the bank account I am actively using.

    Hi,
    Thank you. Unfortunately this is not what I was looking for. This simply let's me fill out the application online, which I then can print out and drop by the bank with passport and other required documents. With my Swiss bank, if I already have a bank account, I can simply click a few buttons and open a 2nd bank account, and the card and PIN are being sent next day without me going to the bank myself.

    Doesn't seem to be possible with Irish Banks.

    That is not corect.
    If you are existing customer with online banking, everything goes online.
    You have to choose the right option to apply.
    IF UB approves your application, on the next day account will be opened and visible on your anytime banking.
