    Changing mortgage term

    Why not increase your monthly mortgage payment while keeping the existing term? You will see the "overpayment" reducing the term due to this, and it gives you the freedom to reduce your payment if your circumstances change, and not have to negotiate with the bank to increase your term if needed...

    As stated in my other post I contacted O2. They have just taken me out of contract with no penalty. I'm heading for the Meteor store, I have another account with them for business - that will be gone in 2 months when out of contract. I know times are tough but this is the time you should try to...

    Mortgage Brokers - what do they do?

    I am a satisfied customer of a broker, infact the previous poster Mr. Ferguson. I rang him last year about income protection and ended up switching my mortgages with his assistance. He was able to give me an indication over the phone of what I could save, and an email later to confirm - based on...

    Risks having a public IP address at home?

    Marge Quite possibly what they want to do is supply you with a VOIP phone at home linked to the new telephone system in the office. With static IP address it is easier to route traffic from remote sites to/from the PBX. If they ask you to use or install a VPN client always turn this off before...

    Mortgage provider not returning calls - what to do?

    Unfortunately these regulations do not seem to have any effect. Within the process I have gone through I emailed the complaints unit in AIB Mortgages and got no response (I know people will say I should write, but AIB's own documentation states you can also email). It was only when I wrote to...

    Moving to UB or BOI from EBS as there is no AIB where we live; insights?

    UBL = useless. Can't ever talk to branch personnel by phone, they have a call centre which is meant to help who seldom can and the call centre never pass messages to branch (or that what the branch states when you call in person). Any transaction (debit, transfer) you wish to do at any...
