North Dublin Bin Tax Relief

[Shaun Sheep]

I have a few questions.

If I paid the €110 annual charge last year for the fingal co.co. bins and a number of bin tags as well for the year do I add all of this up and do the following which was on the fingalcoco website?

Any ideas what is the best way of doing this is it every year?


How to apply for tax relief
Tax relief for all bin charges (refuse) is given for charges paid during the previous year. To claim a tax credit for bin charges in the current year on those which were paid during 2008 text:
CREDIT PPS-number PIN BIN your-bin-charge-amount to 51829
For example, if your PPS number is 1234567A, your PIN number is 654321 and you paid €240 for bin charges and you want to claim a tax credit for it simply text:
CREDIT 1234567A 654321 BIN 240 to 51829

once you receive the relief for one year the revenue will prob up date your tax credits automatically each year for the same amount unless you tell them otherwise. ive never used the txt system but im sure it works perfectly. if youre nervous about using it you could just ring the revenue on the appropriate 1890 PAYE line (see www.revenue.ie) and do it over the phone. note-you will not receive your 2009 refund until the revenue have received your 2009 P60 details from your employer and they ahve until mid feb to do this so the revenue may not have these details yet.
