Using Ulster Bank ROI account as main account in the UK

Does anyone living and working in the UK still use their Irish UB account as their main account? Is that something that can feasibly be done?

It's *possible*, but you'll be paying hefty fees for using your debit card, and ATM withdrawals outside the RBS group. Employers, government depts may not be able/willing to make payments into it. You'll have no branch access either.

It would be easier to set up a local account, or open up an Ulster Bank NI account.
