When applying years service to the formula, does it have to be 'full years completed' or could you put in partial e.g. 12.5 years service

Mount Juliet - bliss

Went to London a couple of years ago with my wife and 2 kids. Initially found it difficult (expensive) to find 'family' accomodation. We eventually stayed in the Crowne Plaza on Cromwell road. We got a very large room with 2 double beds - room worked out at £115 per night which was very...

If going for any of these options, you should consider getting a good set of headphones. While these devices have built-in speakers, it can be difficult to hear over the background noise on a plane. Also it can be very annoying for fellow passengers to have to listen to a kids movie on full blast.

For what its worth the rules around the Topaz fuel card are as follows - there is the price at the pump and the price set weekly on the card - you pay the lower of the 2 prices.

I purchased a NETGEAR RangeMax Dual Band Wireless-N Gigabit pre-Xmas and it works a treat. Picked it up for c. 100E on Komplett.ie. Connected a desktop via ethernet and wirelessly running 2 laptops, ITouch and printer with great coverage and transfer rate.

Oldnick - I'm not sure this is the case. There is a separate section on the website under Manage Booking for ASdvanced Passanger info. This includes DOB, Passport #, Passport expiry date, country of birth etc..etc..This info isnt captured during online checkin,

Re: AIB Staff to receive 3% pay increase? Have I missed something. Were AIB not ordered by the Labour Relations Commission to pay the award. Blame so called social partnership for it. The award only applies to people below management level as well. Sunny - this is spot on and some posters...

Booked 4 flights to Malaga in Jan, travelling July 09. Cost €245 per head Checked same flights today. Cost €140 per head :eek:. Thems the breaks !! If I were you I'd book now. I cant see them dropping much further and will likely rise closer to the summer.

Stayed in Albergo Del Senato in early Jan. It is in Piazza Del Rotunda and looks out onto the Pantheon - great location - lovely hotel. You will get better value around the train station but IMHO the area is a bit more rundown and I wouldnt feel as safe at night. For a much better location (and...

I switched from Eircom c. €40 pm all local / national calls to NTL c. €50 pm for all local/national calls AND 10mb broadband. Was being totally screwed by Eircom. No problems so far with NTL - installation went fine / availability good / 1 service call required to date was dealt with very...

I have an EFlow account and previous posts will testify that it hasnt been a smooth relationship. As such I've been keeping a close eye on my online transaction statement. My latest issue is highlighted below. We used the toll 4 times on Sunday, but when I checked the statement there were 5...

All airlines have the same requirement. I've flown to Spain with both EazyJet and Aer Lingus and in both incidences I've input the required info on their websites. I was using their web-checkin services, but I think that you could also do it at checkin stage.

Thanks for the responses. Eventually got thru yesterday by selecting the Gaeilge option. The girl in the call centre (who thankfully conversed in English!) told me not to worry about it and that wasnt I lucky that I only got charged twice and not 4 times. She also commended me on my honesty...
