    Ryanair checks you out if you try to change a flight for which you have already checked in.

    At best, it's really poor user interface design. Besides the fact that as Bronte said there's no reason to uncheck you when you haven't made any changes, important pop ups should necessitate a physical acknowledgement (i.e. a button click) before they disappear. And it should also be obvious on...

    Mattress Disposal

    Bargaintown did that for us recently. They charged for the service, but we were happy to pay for the convenience of not having to arrange to dispose of them separately (multiple mattresses/bed bases). They delivered/collected at the same time.

    Problem paying my Preliminary Tax

    Brendan, have you tried contacting your bank in case the issue is on their side? I’ve had a similar problem before where I had an RDI set up for tax but the money wasn’t taken. In my case, it was because the account I was trying to use did not allow direct debits or debit instructions. From...

    Accounting for purchase on VAT3 where non-Irish VAT paid

    I purchased goods from Germany for my business, but I believe the company are mainly a retail outlet, so rather than take my VAT number and zero rate the purchase, they charged VAT at the German rate and supplied a VAT invoice. I understand I can reclaim that VAT through the EVR, but that’s not...

    How to show mortgage repayment capacity when you've no debt?

    I was in exactly the same position as you a year ago. Large deposit, no debt, self-employed. But I was doing what Rasputin suggested and making it very obvious how much I was saving on a monthly basis. Even though that doesn't help you immediately, I would start doing that from now. The only...

    Artist with volatile income. Prioritise pension or mortgage?

    Thanks for the responses, it is really helping to clarify things for me. Thanks sm. I see where you're coming from—that makes a lot of sense. I could definitely put additional savings toward overpaying my mortgage. If I stick to the overpayment my current provider allows, I could possibly pay...

    Best ETF available on Davy AVC?

    I have a PRSA with Davy, invested in an ETF. (IUSQ which is the Frankfurt (euro) listing of SSAC/ISAC.

    Purchasers Bank has Not released Funds to Complete House Sale.

    I can’t answer your question as to whether you should pull out of the sale or not. What I can say, as someone in the middle of a house purchase right now, is that there have been a lot of people talking about significant delays with the banks recently, particularly getting to drawdown. What...

    Consumer Credit Act consent

    I did not give consent on my application, after discussing it with my mortgage advisor. There was no suggestion that it would affect my application. However, my application for full mortgage approval hasn't gone through yet so I can't state that with absolute certainty. If you're concerned...

    VAT Return for Received Services

    Thank you, I really appreciate the clarification and the explanation of those terms. The question of whether I am entitled to reclaim the vat still has me a little unsure given I don't actually handle the vat on my products. What I supply is ultimately taxable to the final consumer though, so...
