Talking Card Reader for Online Banking

The card reader is a small hand held device which works with your Allied Irish Bank (GB) Visa debit card to generate unique security codes when you are completing certain transactions on Online Banking. (Online banking is available to personal, personal business customers and partnerships). 

If you require a talking card reader which is designed to assist visually impaired customers, you can speak to us by calling Phoneline Banking on 0345 601 6262^†, log in and choose option zero (0) and we will be happy to help you. We are available between 9am and 5pm, 7 days a week.

Chip & Signature Cards

For customers who have difficulty using a PIN, we can offer a Chip and Signature personal Debit and/or Credit Card.

When you buy goods in a shop, you will not have to enter your PIN on the terminal. Instead, the assistant will print a receipt for you to sign and this signature will then be compared to the signature on the back of your Card. All other transactions, such as online and mail order, will be carried out in the same way as the personal Debit or Credit Card.

For more information or to ask for a Chip and Signature personal Debit or Credit Card, please contact our Additional Customer Support Helpline on 0345 646 0318 (Mon - Fri 9am - 5pm, excluding bank holidays).
