    South Facing or East Facing

    We are hopefully going to get to build a house on a 3/4 acre site that is bordered by two roads (minor roads, more like lanes) Which aspect would it be best for the front door to face or ultimately is it only the internal layout that really matters. I have a photo of the site layout but dunno...

    I could be completely wrong but just something I'm picking up on would it be that people who weren't in arrears got €250 and those who were €1000?

    Bank of Ireland BOI customers any update??

    I am being requested to sign a MFA and return it. On the form it states "By signing this form you amend the terms of your Mortgage Loan Offer Letter" then 2.3 states "If we certify that the repo rate is unavailable at any time or times we will charge you our prevailing variable rate" Just a...

    Bank of Ireland BOI customers any update??

    I started on variable in Sept 05, moved to tracker in Feb 06, fixed in April 07 for 3 years. I assume it's to do with what was specified on your original Loan offer. What was the going rate at the time etc

    Should I invest in shares pre or post Brexit?

    So @Sarenco you would recommend paying it off my mortgage balance, nothing else I could double my buck on (I know risk etc)? I've never had a lump sum before that I could possible make something on, I feel like i'd be missing the boat if I just gave it back to the bank. I can't see myself being...

    Should I invest in shares pre or post Brexit?

    I have advised BOI to keep taking the current amount out of my account (€200 extra) and this reduces my term by 7 years as it currently stands. If I pay off the lump sum (€10k estimation) it only reduces by 2 years. So I was hoping I could invest right and maybe increase this amount to payoff as...

    Should I invest in shares pre or post Brexit?

    I am hoping to invest my money from the tracker scandal and was thinking of investing a lump sum in shares. Having no experience in this field i would appreciate any advice given. Or different investment options. Will pre or post Brexit make a massive difference?

    Has any BOI customers received their letters saying they are 'impacted'? Still awaiting my letter.

Every time I ring the bank I get sooo frustrated and worked up or even talk about the injustice of the situation to anybody. I can do...
