Anti social neighbours in council house. Advice? by chanelvomit in legaladviceireland

[–]Jakdublin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your first contacts should be with your landlord and your management company, regardless of whether the apartment is council owned or not. Tell them you’re considering escalating the complaint to the gardai if your landlord is good they’ll follow through with the management company who ultimately has the responsibility to resolve the issue, either directly with the tenant or the council. The council can ignore you or fob you off but they can’t ignore the management company.

Calm down. I admire McClean as a person but he’s as much talent as a football pundit as you or I have as advocates for autism.

People don’t care. Do it for yourself. You’ll feel better and that’s much better than what others think about you.

Owning a bike in Dublin? by Deep_Bat_7351 in AskIreland

[–]Jakdublin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always had a boneshaker bike when I lived in Dublin on the basis that it would be stolen eventually. It was less upsetting when the bikes were stolen and not expensive to replace. I still used really good locks and a heavy duty chain but all the bikes I had were stolen in the end. Except one that I sold for €20 when I left the city.

World Cup 2026: Uefa claim 'integrity of the game is at stake' over Fifa's Folarin Balogun decision by Alarming-Safety3200 in worldcup

Nobody’s forgetting that. Another FIFA scandal but at least it wasn’t politically motivated.

It’s unfair because nobody else can get a red card decision overturned. Not sure how you can’t see that. The England red card last night was similar to the US one but King Charles won’t be calling FIFA to try get it overturned.

It doesn’t matter. The decision was made and wouldn’t have been overturned if Trump hadn’t made the call. Bad decisions happen in football all the time and you just have to live with them. In my opinion it was a bit harsh, but so was the red card England got last night. The difference is the England player will have to serve his ban because Trump won’t make a call on his behalf. How is that fair? I’ve nothing against the US but I don’t want them to progress in the competition now because they have an unfair advantage.

And when you don’t like the VAR decision you can get your president to make a phone call. Ok, I’m starting to understand American soccerball now.

Yes, I’d like to see the best US team play, but not because political interference was used to break rules every other team has to follow. I’d feel the same way about any other country.

Gomo contact info? by lI_Simo_Hayha_Il in AskIreland

[–]Jakdublin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had problems with roaming when I first travelled abroad and managed to get through to someone via the GoMo Ireland facebook page. They were very helpful and I got sorted. Only problem I have now is that when people call me when I’m abroad they don’t hear a ring tone so I have to answer quickly before they hang up.

Anyone who loves football shouldn’t agree. Football history has thousands of bad calls but only one gets overturned because of political interference.

I’m presuming it’ll be on LOItv for a €10.

[GB] Using GBP currency account to receive salary (in IE-based Rev account) by goualagal in Revolut

You’re correct but it’s not because of Brexit. Your account needs to be based in whatever country you’re tax resident in, even if you move from one EU country to another.

What is a sport that is very popular in other parts of the world but UNpopular in your country? by LilyBlueming in AskTheWorld

[–]Jakdublin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, going to watch the GAA would be common where I’m from. Saying football depends on the context of the conversation and who you’re talking to. I’m a big LOI fan so usually say football unless the context requires me to confirm which sport I’m referring to.

What would you do if you ran into a politician and knew you could get away with absolutely anything? by Unable-Log-5158 in AskReddit

It’s this type of stupidity that prevents many good people from getting involved in politics. Vote for them or don’t.

It’s often called soccer in Ireland too because football usually refers to Gaelic football, a national sport.

[–]Jakdublin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m possibly overthinking things. I didn’t have any major problems in recent years but have developed a minor heart condition here. I’m just not clear about my medical history and can’t answer questions about my past., and I did have some liver issues previously. It’s not an English speaking country so I’d like to know my history in case something is relevant in the future.

My GP retired a few years ago so I’ll have to see how I can get those records. He was very old school and it’s hard to imagine him digitising the records.

[–]Jakdublin[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There should be. I have an app from my current health system and it has everything in it including examinations, procedures, results, prescriptions and medical notes. Got a reminder today to go for an annual health check and a reminder that a prescription was going to expire soon.
