The law says that you can be offered a repair, a refund or a replacement. It's within the shops rights to offer you any of the 3, and normally shops will insist on repair first, then replace and only refund as a last resort. Unfortunately, if they offer repair as the first option, you'll pretty...

I've had problems like this before from 3. If there's no problems on the side of 3, then ask them to send out a letter to you confirming this - ensure they include your account details etc. and that you owe them no money. Then send this on, registered post, to the collection agency. You could...

This inside lane, in the 4 lane section, should not be treated as a normal "slow lane". It is an interchange lane, designed for use only by people who get on at one junction and leave at the next. Where this 4th lane exists, technically the 2nd lane from the left is the "slow lane". Though...

Particularly when (I sensed on purpose) the two people he was speaking to on the phone repeated the correct Allardyce each time they answered a question.

Can you please elaborate on this? What costs are you referring to?

With shocking customer service whenever you can get it!!!

Personally, I believe that the death of gaelic football started upwards on ten years ago with the advent of the "northern style" of football. As someone from a football-only county, I never had time for hurling until the past few years when it seems that the better games have always been hurling...

If he's going to give you problems regarding swapping the white for a black by trying to fob you off by saying there isn't one in stock, you might do an "anonymous shop" before identifying yourself (assuming he doesn't know you) to ask if they've a black one in stock - pretending you'd like to...

The Senators article, as mentioned above.

Re: MiFID - Why can't we have one, online submission form for all Financial Instituti Presumably its not done for the same reason that there's no central applications for different current accounts, credit cards, mortgages and any other financial products. As for an independent 3rd party...

The 3 tariffs are good, the connection is fine (it's Vodafone really mostly) but their customer service is shocking. The customer service is the worst I've experienced for any telco in the country I've dealt with - Vodafone, 02, Meteor, Eircom, BT Ireland, or NTL. I've made similar comments...

Re: Idiotic An Post fee charging Very interesting. I've only ever seen Post Offices like that in the UK. Where are you based Megan?

Re: Idiotic An Post fee charging Were you not in a Post Office instead of a stationary shop?

BTW, there's an address for Carhome Ireland Ltd on the CRO.ie website, so I suppose that's something. They shouldn't be too worried - not like the ODCE are going to prosecute for something so minor.

Re: Too drunk too drive home? There was a feature on the BBC Watchdog show some time ago about a UK company who did this very thing - at least, they parked peoples cars in industrial estates - open and exposed, and free, but still charged customers for it. Where I would be suspicious is...

I have a 00 1.6 Zetec and had the same issues with you. The engine started overheating and eventually ended up blowing the head gasket as well - my own fault, not necessarily because of the car itself. I got quotes on getting this fixed with Dublin garages and was quoted €1300 to €2000. If you...

I'm using NTL digital and their broadband service and I've had no problems with them at all (in Dublin 11).

Re: Abbey Travel charging for quotes You won't want to go to the garage mentioned [broken link removed] then.

I've claimed here for similar charges from HSBC from an Irish address and without making any court claims, and they've just settled with me. They paid out about 85% of the fees that were in question. You have to remember, you won't get a refund of all fees - especially if they're settling. The...

I've been trying to find this out as well. As far as I can see, there is a similar line in Irish contract law - I can't find my link to it now - but I don't think it's as specific as the UK clause.
