    Hi, 

    I have recently applied for a Bank of Ireland student credit card on 11/03. I am a mature student and have applied for the card through my current account as I do not hold a student account. Will the fact that I am a mature student affect me getting one? and generally how long does it take to get the card?

    The BOI website states that approval will be known within 24hours of application.

    Look forward to hearing from you.

    Regards
