"Its giving out 1000 euro to people with nothing in their account
You still have to pay it back "
I remember a few years ago people on social welfare got double payments by acc and had to pay it back 10euro a week |

And BOI will be charging overdraft interest rates of about 12% until you do. No such thing as free money |

"Withdraw and close your account online  
It’s probably after crashing
It has "
Of course it has every one that has taken the money will pay it back with interest
Account holders that is |

"In a statement this morning, the bank said the technical issue meant that some customers were able to withdraw or transfer funds over their normal limits and these withdrawals and transfers will be applied to customer accounts today" |

I simply fail the logic behind withdrawing money you don't have in your account and the frenzy that it caused.  It's not that bank of Ireland handed out 500 quid to everyone coming along. Mind boggling.... |

It reminds me of the halcyon days in the mid 80s when I was a student and you could withdraw the single £10 in your account at both of the ATMs in Galway on the same night - those were the days... |

"What is the point because you know they're going to chase you down and take it back"
Yup, I had BOI coming after me 10years ago or so because I had a few Euros outstanding in an account I thought I had closed down. Turned out the account wasn't closed because of the few quid outstanding, I think it was a card charge.
It took me quite a while to find that one out and the debt collector BOI sent after me must have cost them a multiple of what was owed.
Anyhow it was an unpleasant experience I wouldn't want to repeat. |

I guess if you have nothing in your account you're already going to be pretty desperate. Some will have done it because they had an immediate need or use for it. Others because they'll hope against hope that they won't be caught. Others are just chances. |

"What type of an idiot would take this money ..they will have to pay back every cent along with interest, no such thing as free money in this life "
I know people who have emigrated that transfered a 1000 euro out of there old BOI accounts ....
Doesn't look that idiotic of a move |

I wonder were they hacked ? Or do even have a record of the money that was withdrawn . BOI are talking tough this morning . But it did go on for over 16hrs , so they were very blind ...."
Hanlon's razor applies here. "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."
