My #AIB card reader is so old the digits are illegible and the battery, of course, can't be replaced. I'm moving most of my banking to a fintech, because why wouldn't you? Had to phone AIB to get them to cancel the SO, they wanted to charge me a fiver for a new card reader as it'd be my 2nd one...🙄
