"We're currently experiencing technical issues and are working on a resolution. Updates will be provided here on a regular basis, thanks," they wrote before replying to individual queries online.

AIB online banking down again!

I think I'll charge them for the inconvenience like I'm sure they will now that I might miss paying a bill.

Placating concerned members of the public, they added: "AIB customers can continue to withdraw cash from ATMs and make purchases in store and online with their AIB cards."

The bank experienced similar issues last month, and have thanked the public for their patience as they address the issue.
