    Hi
    I requested a cheque book be sent to me for my joint bank account.
    I received two in the post, one with just my name on it and one with both our names on it - i only requested one.
    I have also been charged four times for it - two charges of 5euro and 2 charges of 12.50euro!!
    I sent a message through online banking but no reply.

    Hi tiredblondie,

    Thanks for contacting us on Boards.

    We are sorry to hear that you have been incorrectly charged and that a second cheque book was ordered by mistake. Please be assured that an advisor will reply to your query on the Service Desk as soon as possible and will arrange for the charge to be refunded to your account.

    Thanks,
    Sarah

    Thanks Sarah - i presume a joint account cheque book should require two signatures so the one that arrived for the joint account with just my name on it is no good?

    Thanks for your reply.

    It would depend whether both of you have permission to sign on the Joint account. This is called Repayable to Either, if you have this on the account then either one of you can sign the cheque and it doesn't need to be both of you.

    Thanks,
    Sarah
