Thanks both, for sharing those letters. Messages are still very mixed? But hopefully that means there is still hope? It looks like the matter is still being debated, but maybe not for much longer, so we just need to keep asking the Committee and our elected reps to advocate strongly for us.

Hi all. Just an update in terms of correspondence. I wrote to the Central Bank and received the following reply: The Central Bank’s Tracker Examination is focused on ensuring that lenders provide fair outcomes for all customers impacted by tracker related failings both from a contractual and...

Hi all. I think the outcome from the recent finance committee is as good as we could have hoped for? If BOI are ever to agree that we should be included for redress, they are not going to do so as they sit in front of the Finance Committee, in person and on live TV. It has now been made clear...

Thanks DublinDude. Completely understood and apologies for putting you in the difficult position of having to say no. Everyone here understands how difficult it is to be enagaged in a dispute with your mortgage provider, made all the more stressful if they are your currrent (or former)...

DublinDude. Thanks very much for your detailed post and the very best of luck with your appeal. I find your position very interesting. I wrote back to BOI when they confirmed that we were not included, and asked two very closed and pointed questions: 1. was our mortage ever set to roll to...

Thanks all, for your replies. I will write to Pearse Doherty and cc all of our elected reps at the same time. I'm glad to hear that the relevant screenshots are bring shared with the FSO. It all goes to supporting that expectation that was raised. Does anyone know how many of us there are??? Is...

Yes. It was taking BOI so long to tell us if we were in scope of the current investigation that I complained about that to the FSO. I referenced our earlier (unsuccessful) case in that letter and as part of their response they stated that they would not reconsider our case as it had already been...

Hi all. Got our official "you're not included" today. It makes no reference to the insite communication whatsoever. Focuses very much on the legality of the mortgage docs, with no acknowledgement of the expectations raised in that notice. Don't know where to take this next??? If indeed there is...

Thanks for the update, Brendan. Mattie is right. We don't like it. Not sure what happens now? The comms will presumably start to flow from BOI. I'm guessing it's a mattter of continuing to lobby our elected representatives;a number coming together to lobby with e.g. Padraic Kissane; or giving up.

Sorry. Referred it to the FSO.

Hi Strandski. I wouldn't read too much into it. We got the same response. I think they're kicking to touch, until the Next Central Bank review. My read of it is that they won't be including us until and unless the CB tell them to. And we did refer it to the Central Bank, on the grounds that we...

There was an open mic session online in BoI today. One of the questions asked of the CEO was if there was any timeframe on the staff mortgage and tracker issue. Response was that 98% of staff to be remediated had been contacted with offers of redress; the balance of 2% were proving...

Hi TMH. I don't know how many; hopefully not too many. We are part of the BOI staff cohort. We have tried to find out if we are in scope but they can't say until sometime later in 2018. We've gone to the FSO to say this is too long. They did not support our case before. We are hoping that...

Thank you Todo. I will do that.

@Pewter yes, that's exactly our situation. Carbon copy. I had been in correspondence with the team via email and the responses received did not indicate if we were or weren't in scope. I noticed from this forum that they were being more definitive on the phone. So I rang. And the response was my...

Great to hear of peoples' good news. I am one of the staff who was not on a tracker, but who was advised (along with lots of others) that they would roll on to a tracker. This was subsequently rescinded. I was told today that my mortgage was not currently in scope. Is there anyone else on here...

Adam = DM! Hate auto correct!!!

This gets a mention in the planning app, dated 11 Oct 2013. Says it will be opened during the day and controlled by a management company, and closed at night. But I would take that to mean you can still get in if you live there, you just might need a code, or to buzz someone somewhere watching...

Yes. There's no other vested interest to consider there, as it's a long standing right of way. In fairness, if I was on the ground floor of the yet to be built apartments in HP, I wouldn't like all that pedestrian traffic going past my living / bedroom window, morning noon and night. And it...

Yes, Lukeskywalker, you'd like to think it was going ahead. We haven't bought in DM, yet, btw. We have been having non-buyer's remorse though, and are wondering if we were overthinking the things that gave us pause for thought: the management charge; what's really going to happen with the old...
