    Cooper Helmets

    Personally, I think the Cooper helmets look awful but it's what he wants. He know that it wont be as comfortable as his Mycro one and he may not even be allowed to wear it but he lives and breathes hurling so it is more of a collector's item for him.

    Cooper Helmets

    I'm hoping some of you may be able to help me. My brother is looking for a blue Cooper helmet with a face guard. I have found one on Ebay for €149, but the seller has so many available I'm wondering if they're genuine. Am I being over-suspicious? The seller's feedback is 98.3% which is good...

    Hotel Recommendation ideal for fishing break

    [broken link removed]? I don't know anything about fishing but it was voted best fly fishing guesthouse/hotel in Today's Flyfisher Magazine Game-Tackle Awards 2006. Also, it's in Waterford but there's beautiful scenery and it's not a million miles from Cork either.

    Remortgaging with same bank - do you need a solicitor?

    Most don't, and when a solicitor is required the fee should be relatively cheap. Luckycharm, as your mortgage is with UB you will not require a solicitor to top up your mortgage if the amount you require is within UBs top up limits. There is some information on UB top ups [broken link removed].

    Remortgaging with same bank - do you need a solicitor?

    Who is your mortage with? If you are getting a top up you won't need a solicitor but if you are remortgaging you will. Have you checked with your lender to see if you qualify for a top up?

    mortgage - Recent bank statements required

    As long as you don't have any referral charges/unpaid DDs or payments that you didn't disclose to the lender (loans, maintenance etc) you should be fine. It is ok to have little or no money (or even to be overdrawn as long as you have an overdraft facility) in your account, as long as your...

    Anyone tried E cloths?

    My mother used to get a friend to bring back cloths like that when she went to Germany. I'm not sure of the brand but they looked the exact same and were used only with water. She used to pay around €15 each for them afaik. She used to swear by them but lately I noticed that she has just been...

    Switching Mortgage - Decent Solicitor Fees

    And why do you assume that a lender is more expensive just because they pay legal fees? NIB have the lowest tracker rate for LTVs below 50% and cover legal fees.

    Switching Mortgage - Decent Solicitor Fees

    Second that - and First Active of course. EBS are relatively ok and they pay legals, so do BOS if you go direct ie not through a broker. Are NIB still paying legals?

    Buying an Irish Home when resident in UK

    You will need to be in permanent employement before any lender will consider an application. Even if you are made permanent immediately, chances are you will need to be living and working in Ireland for a minimum of 3 months before you will be granted approval - look at it from a lenders point...

    who will take me on for a mortgage when in debt

    I think what the OP was trying to say is that he has the opportunity to purchase a house valued at €185,000 for €84,000, probably under a tenant purchase or similar scheme. I would have to agree with what Brendan and Clubman say about taking on more debt if you are finding it difficult to cope...

    Switching Mortgage - Decent Solicitor Fees

    Why not use a lender who will pay your legal fees? There are several lenders now doing this. [broken link removed] charge a flat fee of €1059 but I don't think they cover all the lenders. A solicitor should be able to match this fee.

    Credit Checks for mortgage application

    This is incorrect. Credit cards can show up on ICB reports regardless of whether or not payments are made. I know of cases where mortgage lenders queried undisclosed credit card balances and were able to quote balances because they were listed on the client's ICB. Also, the likelihood is if...

    delivery by UPS

    I ordered a gift for my mother's birthday from Swarovski by UPS. I ordered it about 3 weeks in advance so I could select the delivery date and even requested for it to be delivered 2 days before her birthday just incase there were any delays and she still didn't receive it on the morning of her...

    Credit Checks for mortgage application

    This isn't just a requirement of Bank of Scotland. Generally if the balance is greater than 2,500, it affects your affordability. Some credit cards show up on credit checks while others don't but you are supposed to advise your lender eitherway. Some lenders look very unfavourably on undisclosed...
