Moved out of the family home to new house 9 years ago. Took a mortgage against original home as part finance for new home. Am fully compliant and paying all taxes on rental income. Can't claim tax relief on mortgage interest because money was used to buy new house. Have an offer on rental...

Yep! Same boat since last night. Thought I had been kicked out because I was no longer a customer. Amazing how dependent we become on an EMail address. This problem has made me aware of how vulnerable I am since all my folders are within the eircom account. Has anyone done a back up of old...

These guys are getting better. I noticed a "stamp duty on cheques" charge on my account and yesterday I got the "get lost" package in one envelope and, wait for it, a lovely new cheque book in another. I wonder what they think I'm going to do with all these cheques, I use about three a year!!

If you use Google Chrome the translation is great. For the record I have to say that Turkish Airlines are the single best I have ever traveled with. Believe me you are in for a treat. I even messed up on the flight home and ended up missing it. They were great and slotted us onto the flight the...

C'mon Conan, I am raising what I think are reasonable issues. In fact I originally posted in the Transport Forum only to be moved here where you seem to think I am fair game for ridicule. The basic facts are that a small minority of people seem to behave in an obnoxious way on Irish Trains. I...

Again Seagull you don't qualify to be an "Outside Man", you're too polite. This guy does not want to be moved and will make life very uncomfortable for the occupier of the inside seat. On one occasion I was pushed into the inside and the guy wouldn't let me out until the last minute all because...

Hey Sol28, I have long legs myself and do have a preference for an outer seat, hence the continued problem with the 1.5 occupiers. I think there is a big distinction between yourself and "Outside Man" in that you seem happy to allow a fellow passenger to take the inside seat. My experience of...

Okay before I start I know I'm going to annoy someone BUT! Frankly I'm tired of people taking up more than a seat on the train. I am an infrequent traveller by train as my preferred mode of transport is a bicycle. With the inclement weather over the past few weeks I have had to take the train on...

Just by way of closure, I got a letter from Bord Gáis yesterday telling me that they had noticed that they had taken the DD twice and giving me a €20 credit on my next bill. No mention of the fact that I had alerted them to the fact! Anyway I suppose this is a positive outcome in the end

Why can't you get the 06:24 from Thomastown to Heuston? This will get you to Heuston for 08:11 and even passes through Bagenalstown!

Hi Codology, I had a call from Danske this morning wanting me to confirm an unusual deposit which thankfully was in order. I asked the caller what the position was as I still haven't received any communication about anything. He explained that they are progressing through customers at present...

Am I mistaken or have mine and other attempts to help been removed from this thread? If memory serves one poster suggested forums specifically for VW restoration and I pointed towards "The old volks home". I also suggested that the title wasn't vague to me. I haven't received any communication...

I am very interested to know how widespread this double take was. The cash flow impact for year end could be quiet substantial for Bord Gáis! Perhaps it's a good thing that the billing systems are not being used for Irish Water after all!

I noticed two direct debit deductions from my bank account for Bord Gáis in December. When I queried this I got a stock EMail back saying it was an error and that the money would be returned in ten days. Unhappy with this I EMailed back asking for some form of explanation to which the reply was...

Saving Certificates provide an AER of 2.11% Tax free over 5 years.

KBC or PTSB Still haven't received the letter telling me to get lost but have started to check out where to go. I had a meeting with a Gentleman at PTSB this morning and he seems to be able to offer me everything I need with no fees once my wages are transferred every month. I guess it's a bit...

As far as I know this is just additional income and should be included in your tax return upon which the Revenue will issue a bill. This is the exact same process as claiming extra relief for medical expenses and the like only in reverse!

Sorry Frank, Only seeing this now. I find the Horizon box to be excellent. There have been many comments on many sites expressing negative feedback, however, I have nothing but positives to say about it. The facility to record 4 different programmes at the same time is really good. Also there...

thanks Stephnyc, just did and they were really helpful

repossession of ALL houses would be a messy and expensive exercise
