    Ordering a Hyundai Ioniq 5

    Thanks a million for the heads up. I just read that thread now and at least am reassured that it seems to be happening countrywide. Not that that's a good thing but it's a Hyundai thing.

    Ordering a Hyundai Ioniq 5

    Hi folks, wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience. We paid a deposit and ordered a new Ioniq 5 from a Hyundai dealership back in February. There was only one vehicle available in the type we wanted, although several available in a different spec at that point. We were ordering a...

    Query about tax residency, workers stuck abroad during pandemic

    Hi all, I would appreciate any guidance available. Situation: a couple, both Irish citizens and with a property in Ireland, one PAYE and the other self-employed; rented out the family home and went travelling in the EU in Nov 2019. Ended up in lockdown and could not return to Ireland in the...

    Application process Naturalization

    Any further update your end, Gervan? No word our end, and that phoneline is worse than useless! Only available for two hours, two mornings a week, and even then it just rings out and a message says this number is not operational!

    Ulster Ulster tracker appeal - how long does it take?

    Super frustrating, notabene. Any further update your end as regards progress? FYI there was a meeting yesterday of the Appeals Committee, lower panel - I wonder if they take place on the same day as the upper panel. I called yesterday to see how our own case was progressing as we've had a fair...

    Application process Naturalization

    It's frustrating when there seems to be a random and unspecified length of time needed, even though we all know that they are inundated. It'd just be good to know are we talking two months more... twelve months more ...? Like the tracking system when you apply for a passport. I have a friend...

    Application process Naturalization

    Would you happen to remember how long into this process she received the letter moving her application along to second stage @HollowKnight ? I'm trying to estimate how much longer my husband's application might take now that he's at 2nd stage... Tnx :)

    Ulster Ulster tracker appeal - how long does it take?

    I really hope that's the case @notabene and @SaySomething - utterly draining when it goes on for such a long time. I'm earlier in the process - and will be Lower Panel. We appealed, Bank replied, we replied to that, and since then nothing, no acknowledgement from BDO or indication of next...

    Ulster Ulster tracker appeal - how long does it take?

    @SaySomething sorry to hear that :-( Do you know when you'll hear back? What an exhausting prospect to think that this might drag on yet further... @notabene have you heard back yet?

    Application process Naturalization

    Hi, is anyone here in the process of applying for irish citizenship, or recently through the process? My husband applied in Nov '18 and it's a simple enough application - married to me, an Irish citizen, and living & working in Ireland for 20yrs - and he's a UK citizen himself, so the...

    Ulster Ulster tracker appeal - how long does it take?

    Thanks all for your replies. You'd be tempted to think that they were almost enjoying dragging this out wouldn't you? :p Shouldn't it really work like: We submit appeal 1 week later BDO acknowledges appeal & forwards to Bank Bank replies within 20 days And if they don't, then the appeals...

    Ulster Ulster tracker appeal - how long does it take?

    It's neverending! I submitted my appeal the week before last and got a letter today from BDO saying: 'If we have not replied within 20 business days with the Bank's response we will send you a further update at that point.' So they're not saying the bank has 20 days in which to reply & they'll...

    Ulster Ulster Bank redress in this quarter

    I've been battling with the bank for 3.5 years now to get tracker back - finally got it reinstated and received cheque at the beginning of April. The letter at that time said that a full breakdown would arrive within weeks but here we are, three months later, end of June has been and gone, and...

    Ulster Ulster Bank redress in this quarter

    Hi gang, my account was adjusted on 27th March and the registered letter arrived this morning with a cheque. Scant on detail, we'll have to wait to see how the payment breaks down when they send the detailed letter, which they say they will send 'in the coming weeks'. On the one hand, I am...

    UB how long for cheque after mortgage adjustment?

    Hi Karro77, I got my cheque this morning and my mortgage was adjusted on 27th March, so I'd say there's a good chance your cheque will land on the doorstep in the next couple of days. Good luck.

    Ulster Ulster Bank redress in this quarter

    Same case here. I drew down the mortgage in 2004. I have been in dispute with UB for years now about the tracker issue. They offered to put me back on tracker in 2015, but it was on a higher rate than the one I had left, so I was with the Ombudsman by the time the Examination started. Got...

    Tracker mortgage protest Jan 2018

    Count me in too. Would it make sense to find out what day the Finance Committee will be meeting the bank CEO's in Jan and work out what date is best around that? Just before the committee hearing / just after? For maximum exposure/ impact.

    Ulster Ulster Bank Redress Update

    Yup, 60 day holding letter received here today also. Had kinda half thought they might even change the wording a wee bit to acknowledge all the recent media focus, or the promise and timeline given by GM.... But nah.

    What is reasonable compensation for those affected by the tracker issue

    Can I check I'm understanding what you're saying, Brendan? That the banks have committed to paying back, and are already in the process of paying back: 1. the sum overpaid 2. Interest on the sum 3. Compensation. I believe that there's a big lack of clarity on the Interest which is due to us...
