THOUSANDS LINE UP AS CASH MACHINE SPITS OUT FREE MONEY

Matt Case - August 16th 

Bank of Ireland confronts crisis as a multitude of customers flock to ATMs in a bid to exploit a significant IT malfunction.

The bank issued an early notification to its customers yesterday afternoon regarding a problem with its online app and personal banking website, following an influx of grievances.

As night fell, patrons discovered the ability to withdraw cash from ATMs even with minimal account balances. Law enforcement authorities were directed to disperse the lines forming at ATMs, as individuals lined up to capitalize on the technical anomaly.
