I've been reading the posts on NSP/AVC with interest as I went through same issue a few months ago.
The issues raised by Prime Time seem to have been missed as the posts mount up..
The main issue is not are NSP's better, surely its have people got the right advice!!
In my opinion RTE and the guy from Cork pushed a line that NSP's are allways right.
Surely this is as inaccurate as AVC's are always right.
As someone who cannot avail of NSP's, ' A new entrant' the Prime Time show was wrong for me.. So I took out an AVC,paid a fee(E400) and opted for 5% charge because I liked the fund choice and service option of tax relief at source.
The moral of story is everyone's circumstances are different.
Good advice is what suits you not someone in Cork or a TV show.
Let sanity prevail and post away!!
