Registered with Energia who were the best deal on Bonkers.ie, tho they say there's a E230 'standing charge' that I don't see on EI, so that might reduce my saving to c.E900/yr E2.46/day compared to E3.01/day ....
Ok that sounds like progress. Have you actually paid the €950 bill yet as I have an idea for that. I'm giving you both a question and a job this morning, if you get them done by this afternoon we will move on.
Meanwhile for the next month aim to empty the freezers of food to give you and your lovely wife some breathing space on costs.

Job 3
I doubt this one will get you talking to a lovely Russian lady but you might have a nice chat all the same, firstly get out your PRSI number and then telephone :
Social Welfare Buncrana Donegal: 1890690 690
Ask them for:
1. Your PRSI record to be sent in the post to you
2. Have a chat about how many more years of PRSI you need to get the full state pension
3. Discuss any gaps in your prsi history and ask them to send you information on how you might be able to buy back prsi (this might be a different department so ask for the name of it and telephone no
3. Don't forget to mention to them your wife is a dependant, if she has any PRSI paid then ask the above for her too.
If the 1890 is not free, than ask them to call you back, tell them you are broke. They are generally lovely people in that office.
