    Eircom bundle & reduced package discout mid contract

    Thank you Guns N Roses, That's probably what happened. To be fair, I can't remember precisely what was said over the phone at the time. Have yet to get time to set aside to join the customer service phone line queue!

    Eircom bundle & reduced package discout mid contract

    I'm a long time Eircom customer. In October last year, I got a cold call from them which ended up reducing the cost of package I was on. It all came in about E10 or E12 less than before. So I took it. Yes there was a 12 month contract but that was ok. The most recent bill received has...

    Pay for new phone with existing phone credit?

    I currently have a lot of credit on the mobile phone I already have, i.e. pay as you go with Vodafone. I'm thinking about buying a new mobile phone. Nothing very fancy, another PAYG option. Does anyone know if it is possible to pay for the new phone out of the credit already on the...

    Setting up a Tablet for 3 kids

    I've been given the job of setting up an Android Tablet which Santa is bringing to a family where it will be used by kids of 12, 9 and 7 - two girls, one boy. Thing is I know zero about this world - the kids know a lot more I'm sure. For Christmas morning I'd like to have some stuff...

    German train tickets & website

    Thank you both very much for the very detailed and informative replies. There will be two travelling so it might work out cheaper. It's a flying visit so a bit unsure of committing to specific trains in the event of a delay. Will check out the site again and see what the best option is...

    German train tickets & website

    For rail travel in Germany, is there any advantage to prebooking train tickets on www.bahn.de rather than buying at the station on the day of travel? It's just a one time trip, Berlin to Leipzig returning the following day, no special travel cards. Are the fares cheaper online? It isn't...

    Tesco & not charged the sale price at till

    Was on a quick visit to Tesco this afternoon. Picked up some packets of sweets in special offers. One was half price, and got two in a 2 for €4 deal. Or so I thought. When I checked my receipt later when I got home, I discovered I was charged full price for each of the items. I...

    aerlingus website and API to Spain info.

    When the uncertainty first arose, I trawled the aerlingus website for an email address to make that query but to no avail. The next day I checked again and found a contact email but that information was very well hidden deep, deep, deep in the website. However, when I eventually did get to...

    aerlingus website and API to Spain info.

    Hi So-crates, Thanks for taking the time to reply. Yes, it was through the manage booking that I tried to print the API info as recommended. Will try again and do as you suggest. Wonder what would happen if we arrived at the airport and the API weren't completed. Would we be denied...

    aerlingus website and API to Spain info.

    CU introduces cap on members shares

    My credit union has introduced a cap on members' shares. Anyone currently with shares above this maximum have been told that no further deposits will be accepted and have been advised to remove any deposits above the maximum out of the credit union. I am fortunate enough not to have a loan...

    Flights Dublin to/from Sicily

    I laughed at this! Nice one, Slaphead! Thanks for the suggestions. I appreciate them all. We're looking at a few possible routes. Stansted to Palermo might be the way to go. Have to pin down the geography a bit more before deciding. Thanks again.

    Flights Dublin to/from Sicily

    We're going to a wedding in Sicily in June. Time is short for us in the summer but it appears there's only direct flights on a Wednesday and a Sunday which isn't really ideal. Prices from Aerlingus would really stretch our budget too. Does anyone have any ideas how best to get to and from...

    Pharmacy prices Shop Around!

    I second this. Prices can vary significantly. My recent experience is with generic paracetemol. In a local pharmacy, a box of 24 paracetemol capsules by one maker (red box; sorry can't be precise at the moment) costs just €0.65. Another box of generic paracetemol by another maker (blue box)...

    Price on sticker different to price at till

    I picked up a pair of jeans in a shop last week. I chose them mostly because of the "cheap" price. The price tag said €15.99 but it scanned at the till at €19.99. The assistant wanted to charge me the higher price (but in a nice way!) While I went to double check the price tags on the...

    Dublin Airport - Terminal 2

    I'm very curious how the 2000 (?) people were selected to take part in the T2 trial? I heard the Head Guy speak on radio today and he said everyone in the trial had "a script" to follow as they put the facilities to the test. I'd love to know exactly what was involved. Also, how much did it pay?

    healthstore.ie Any users?

    Hmmmmm Thanks Ronan. The link you provided doesnt tally with the site I viewed originally. [broken link removed] Now I'm a bit more wary! Has anyone used either site?

    healthstore.ie Any users?

    Has anyone ordered from www.healthstore.ie? What was your experience? How long did delivery take? It is an .ie address but the format looks a bit American. I'm a bit wary. Can anyone vouch for this site? Many thanks.
