Hi Mags
I recently started to use RUBY CARD - its a prepaid MASTERCARD.
The initial fee is €12.95, there is annual Government stamp duty of €2.50
There is No monthly fee. Purchases 2.95% (min 75c, max €2.00) in Ireland, 2.95% (min 75c, max €2.00) abroad. ATM withdrawals €2 in Ireland and €3.50 per withdrawal abroad.
I lodge money to the account over the internet banking, it is much cheaper this way. it costs €1.00 to lodge any amount
Ruby card purchases cost €2.00 max. therefore Ryanair return tickets cost me only €2.00 , as against €20 for 2 using laser of credit card. To date I have made 4 separate bookings up to September with Ryanair for this year, and no ryanair fees for using laser or credit card
Check Rubycard.ie
