Many of the 1800 staff who have got their trackers returned have now received their refunds etc. Everyone has also got money towards legal advice. I hope that this money is sent to Padraic Kissane for his six years of painstaking forensic investigation on all aspects of our case which finally...

There appears to be no logic to the amounts they are offering for legal advice, everyone should be offered the same. I have been in touch with many staff and all of them have been offered one thousand euro for each loan affected, yet i was offered one hundred euro!

Just got my redress letters and have been offered only one hundred euro for legal advice for each of my loans! The vast majority of customers are been offered one thousand euro. It simply does nt make sense thar we are been offered different amounts.

To the staff that has not got their trackers back, do not lose hope. Get Padraic Kissane to represent you and send him all your loan docs - request all your data from the bank. I am aware of a staff member who has now got a tracker despite the fact that their mortgage was never on a tracker. Do...

I am one of the 1800 staff affected and am delighted to say that finally after nine long years my mortgages have reverted back to trackers today. I have been in touch with a number of other staff who have also got their trackers returned. I cannot believe it is finally over. Well done to...

Delighted to hear that finally customers are been returned to their trackers. Padraic Kissane has worked unceasingly for nine years fighting this cause and without him the majority of people would not have got their trackers re-instated. I hope when you do get your cheques that you will ensure...

All BOI staff need to write to our new CEO Francesca Mc Donagh expressing their dismay and shock that she never mentioned the 1800 staff in her statement yesterday. How she deals with this scandal will define her leadership in the bank. Is she going to be another Richie or will she change the...

I am one of the 1800 Bank of Ireland staff affected. I won my case with FSO, but when BOI appealed it to the High Court, FSO took the decision to review my case. At that stage, Bill Prafiska was the Ombudsman and surprise surprise he sided with BOI. He ruled against his own Head of Legal...

The heading on the front page of yesterday’s Irish Daily Mail was Tracker Scandal. I missed the article and would like to know what it said. Have you read it ?

Brendan, I fixed on 28 December 2006

I have a print-out from the bank which stated the following information: Current Product - Staff 2 year fixed rate Current Rate - 3.85 Roll to Product - Staff Tracker ECB Repo + 0.75% Product Rollover Date - 05/01/2009 This information still showed on my loans AFTER my Tracker was pulled. The...

Thanks Hogmeister for the clarification and I absolutely agree with you re voluntary contribution to Padraig Kissane . Only for Padraig, this review would never have happened and countless people would never have got their trackers returned. He has spent years working on this issue probably at...

I missed it so am in shock when I read his comments re BOI staff. Why would he make this statement at this hearing? Why do it in such a public manner instead of advising the staff themselves? Did he give any reasons for making this statement?

Hi Hogmeister Have you contacted Central Bank and BOI with the issues outlined in your post ? I have written to CB and FSO expressing my concerns re BOI staff, I got no reply from FSO, received a letter from CB noting my concerns. I wrote to BOI asking why not one of the staff trackers have been...

BOI appealed the FSO decision to the High Court, but it was the FSO themselves who withdrew my case before it got to the High Court

I am one of the 1800 staff affected and as already outlined on AAM I did take my case to the Ombudsman and he found in my favour, however FSO then rejected their own findings and reviewed my case again. I waited another 18 months and surprise surprise Bill Prasifka found in favour of BOI. He...

I have not heard of any of the 1800 affected staff getting their trackers returned, however the review is ongoing so there is still hope. At this stage though, it is worrying that none of the staff have been successful in getting their trackers restored. I would urge all staff to write to...

Thank you very much for your advice Snowyb, as it is very difficult to compare the myriad of plans from all the insurers. I will wait until December before making a decision. Much appreciated.

Hello Snowyb I would really appreciate your advice. I am also with Laya,currently paying 2,277 euro for my husband and myself ( we are both on Flex 250 explore) and my two adult children, ages 26 and 24 who are on Assure Vitality. I rang Laya and they have told me that my premium for next year...

The FSO reviewed my case again and 18 months or so later found against me. They overturned their own legal arguments that had been in my favour in the first instance. I often wondered if the fact that there are 1800 staff members affected, if they found in my favour then they would have had to...
