    Which policy to choose

    Assure vitality. It’s no good to us though. We have no access to The Bons in Cork where we would like to attend consultants.

    Which policy to choose

    My health insurance is due for renewal on April 1st. We are a family of 7. Two adults. 5 children age 7 to 16. No health conditions apart from high BP in one adult. I want cover from private consultants in private hospitals. Don’t want day to day GP expenses. Don’t mind about private room...

    We have an 07 Ford Galaxy, we bought it Summer 08. Six weeks later the hand brake went and we brought it back to the garage and it was repaired under warranty. Now the exact same problem has occured again. Are we within our rights to get it fixed FOC or will we have to pay? Also is it...

    Dog Warden

    It would be much better for the animal to be put to sleep than to remain at large, ill, hungry and neglected.

    Why, oh why, do ESB spend money on advertising ?

    I have had a big problem with the ESb recently which I felt was managed very poorly. I found them very rude and condescending and was even more annoyed that even though I am unhappy with the outcome of my complaint I will still have to avail of their monopoly service. The CER was equally...

    Second hand car from dealer, what to offer?

    We have been looking at 7-seaters from dealers and none seem willing to budge on price at all, happy for us to walk away. Maybe it is different depending on make of car?

    Moving from Passat to MPV which one to ease the pain

    Could not agree more. And for the record I am not saying that the Passat is a wonder car, but I like driving it, and think it handles very well. I have never driven a Ford before.

    Moving from Passat to MPV which one to ease the pain

    Silvergirl we looked at the lancruiser LWB alright but it is a devil for getting kids in and out of. The last two seats are more occasional seats really where as I would need them in action all the time. I do both city and rural driving and very high milage as well. Will test drive a few...

    Moving from Passat to MPV which one to ease the pain

    Who mentioned automatic? And if you know of such great MPV's suggest a make and model. I agree the Passat is not exactly a sports car but in my opinion it handles well, has good acceleration and very good boot space etc. To gain one extra seat you have to compromise a heck of a lot in terms...

    Moving from Passat to MPV which one to ease the pain

    I currently drive a Passt TDi, 07 which I will have to get rid of by January, need a 7 seater then. I am currently test driving MPV's but am so dissappointed in them. I drove a Hyundai Trajet at the weekend and there was no pick up at all. I love my Passat, love the pick up, the power, ease of...

    house names

    We have to have a name on our house due to having relatives in the same townland, nothing else to distinguish us from them, cannot really expect the post man to know the first names of all the occupants of each house.

    Dublin Floods Sat 9 Aug - is your house affected?

    The flooding in Dublin was not nearly as destructive as the flooding in Newcastle West in County Limerick, or Mallow in County Cork.
