Just to thrash this out a little further @mise123....................... If I'm giving €6,000 each to my 2 kids (my spouse is gifting too) and I wanted to increase this without exceeding the exemption threshold. Could I ask my brother and his wife (who also have 2 kids) to gift my 2 kids €3,000...

Hi Landlord, I tried using my driver's licence as an 'ID Card' but was rejected a number of times. When I chose passport it complied the first time I tried.

Hi Protocol, I'm in a similar situation, could you let me know what your solicitor had to do in order to get their attention. Still waiting for my deeds. Thanks in Advance.

Agreed on the enjoyment performance and feel good factor - I have no reservations there. Still have an issue with the 30-45 minutes charging time and my experience with queuing is a little different and my expectation is that the infrastructure development will lag the sales of EV's so my...

PTSB have introduced Strong Customer Authentication to make online shopping more secure and to comply with the PSD2 regulation. You may need to configure this before purchasing online. https://www.permanenttsb.ie/psd2/sca/ FYI....I paid my car tax online within the last few weeks using a PTSB...

I'm not so sure about the EV prices dropping to the current ICE level as the car manufacturers have realised during the pandemic that chasing volume is not the best strategic goal of the business. VW have stated that they will not look to volume sales any more or strive to be the highest volume...

Fair point. I think I'm subject to a lot of behavioral psychology habits also which is setting the bar too high for what's available right now in the EV market, I believe in time it will be a no-brainer to switch to an EV. But for now, my entrenched psychological traits are saying that my...

I'm driving a diesel 2.2l Mazda 6 which would cost €38k to replace new. Where can I get a comparably priced EV please? I've procrastinated for 8 months now and change my mind daily between EV and ICE. The top 3 EV cars that I've tested and see as comparable are the VW ID4, Tesla Model 3, and...

At Irish Car Rental prices?

Then check out the Mazda MX-30 with a quoted range of 200KM but the following caveat: "The Mazda MX-30 range, like all EVs, is dependant on various factors such as individual driving style, speed, route profile, load, ambient temperature, and the use of components in the car that consume...

Thank you AAAContributor, much appreciated. All the best.

Yes, just trying to figure out the most efficient way to purchase shares for a multi-listed company. Thanks for the estate taxes thought, I hadn't allowed for that possibility and whether it is relevant or not. Federal estate taxes are zero under $11m so I think I'm OK there and I'm not sure...

Hi jpd, As stated above I'm wondering if 1% Stamp Duty is payable on the Ryanair ADRs? Thanks.

Hi, I've searched the Revenue website and while it's not straightforward I'm assuming that I have to pay the 1% Stamp Duty on Irish company shares (say Ryanair) even if I purchase the shares on a foreign stock exchange (multi-listed). On one of the previous threads in AAM a poster stated that...

Thanks for that Sue Ellen, that's very helpful. Do you or any other poster know if the cost of private health insurance is an Allowable Expense against Income for calculation purposes? Thanks in advance.

Hi Futurelookin, I had a similar decision to make in January for flights to Australia with Skyscanner's results showing flights by e-Travel.ie considerably cheaper. Similar to your experience they made it clear that they could not provide any email or phone support if I did not purchase their...

My sympathies FutureGuy on the loss of your job. I was in a similar position to yourself with a large US multi-national working from home as the last employee. Fortunately for me, I received the exact same package as my colleagues despite a difference of 12 years between the first offering and...

Love the uncluttered presentation of AAM but domainer222 has a point. When I make the browser window smaller I read the text a lot quicker. Thanks for the tip!

I have the VHI Multi-Trip policy and recently had to claim on it as I was away on holiday when my mother was taken ill. My sister was also on holiday with me and had taken out the Ryanair policy while booking her tickets. Her claim took 7 days from submitting the claim (with a scanned copy of...
