Why is there a delay before I can access my account(s) after registration?

Fraudsters attempt various tactics to gain access to customer accounts, including registering new devices to appear legitimate.

To prevent this, Bank of Ireland imposes a 4-hour delay before granting full access when re-registering the app on a device.

While we apologise for any inconvenience, fraudsters receive no sympathy from us. If you have another registered device, use it during the clearance period.

For urgent access, contact us on the numbers below.

Remember, we’ll never call you to unblock a device – report fraud as soon as you can. Reach out to Bank of Ireland customer support for further assistance.
