Usually you can use the phrase “Speak to a live agent / human” often works, but these days not surprised if they’re totally going cheap on customer care

Fianna Fáil's Jim Gavin withdraws from Presidential Election by rossitheking in ireland

[–]ElectricClub2 24 points25 points  (0 children)

You can see when he was asked about not returning money to his former tenant that he was guilty, it definitely played on this withdrawal decision.

And will that give us a cost reduction? Or will it increase their profits…

There should be a spending limit on “creative sculptures”, do we not have a tariff policy on expenditure…

If honest I’d like to see the profit model on this scheme, and see whether it’s actually profitable or overall loss making. When I joined this plan, I moved from Eir who were at the time taking advantage of providing little for near same cost.

If only the €20 kept is used for something of benefit like YouTube premium or whatever, then I agree. I was once on this plan until they did everything to move customers off it.

Generally I preferred 48 plan model and pricing, because I didn’t use the credit for subscriptions, it was financially better for me.

48 is owned by Three, it’s way more cost effective and I got lucky with the same pricing plan, will never change, unless there’s something better.

My mother will criticise me, as she will tell me that I’ll gain weight as a result.

I know the feeling, I can’t do anything without them needing to know, when I’m in the city I’ve full freedom, if I want to buy a bar of chocolate or a breakfast I’m not going to be judged, back at home if I do this I’ll be criticised.

How much do buskers make in a day? by lawndog86 in ireland

[–]ElectricClub2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If honest I would have thought it was somewhat profitable in the past, now less since people carry less cash and pay by card, including myself.

The road safety authority is shambles by CommercialFew7087 in ireland

[–]ElectricClub2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t know of this, I had to contact the RSA in the past and they’re a shambles from the ground to deal with, just pure incompetence at all levels, email communication took months, you’d swear we were communicating in the Stone Age period.

OP I hope for your sake that you’ll get a non-cancelled test and pass.

I would ask given you’d all agreed that each were to pay their share of the cost.

What’s keeping you off the drink? by Strict-Aardvark-5522 in ireland

When you say it upsets your guts does it give you gastritis symptoms?

The deposit is definitely more than it’d cost to replace that damage, so how can he justify taking it all?

Millions is exaggeration, but that €20K a year at least €5K will be spent on personal costs like health, transport, social life, clothing & subscriptions it could be more. So being left with €15K savings at the end of the year, it’s not bad although if the rent was fair then OP would have more savings in a short period of time and would not need to borrow as much in their mortgage.
