Is there any comeback? I had travel insurance booked (single trip). Unfortunately my partner's parent passed the day we were due to fly. Our accommodation charged the first night due to late cancellation which is fair enough. I'm not interested in pursuing it if it will be hassle but...

My partner owns a house already. It is in an area that is quite popular so we don't envisage an issue in selling it. I would be a first time buyer. Is there an option to buy together with a discounted rate or do I lose my first time buyer rate because he already owns a house? Would we have to...

Maybe each case is individual but I will ask here anyway. A friend was due to get married but it got called off. They had just built a house, on her parent's site. She lives in house. He is still contributing to mortgage. Things didn't end well and it's all a mess. Solictors involved. He is...

It is likely that I will be looking for a mortgage within the next year. I am in a permanent & full time position for the past 8 years. I have had various car loans over the years but have been loan free for about 2 years now. I have a credit card, which I clear fully every month. I pay my...

I've only switched to PTSB within the last year so unfortunately that doesn't sound like an option for me, sounds like a great deal though!

Hi, I'm looking for some advice. I have finally saved up 10,000 in my current account - do you have any advice on what I should do with it to get the best return? I'm with Permanent TSB, and would like something with no risk. I also have 10,000 saved with the credit union. Also bear in mind...
