Rainy day.

Can't believe the amount of bitterness towards the public service here
So the nurse who just finished a 12 hour shift in A&E doesn't deserve to get paid?
Or the Garda finishing his 6x10 hour shifts and looking forward to his four days off over the Bank holiday should sit at home and forget any plans he had made to spend the weekend away with his family?

I know its AH but come on....:mad:

the galway secret

is it just wages that have the problem or would lodging money be a problem if i wanted it again todya?

Very good point, and to be honest anyone that works deserves too be paid on time independent of what they do for a living once it's legal and they pay taxes. My own father was a public sector employee and used to get the same slagging as everyone else because of it, despite the fact he actually had to do work and was on a wage comparable to someone that didn't work when levy's were introduced. Not all public sector employees are as well paid as you might think.

hmmm

No-one has ever invented an IT system that never breaks.

So nurses and Garda have more important jobs than the rest of us? I work 6 days a week 10 hours a day and sometimes 12 sitting under neath trucks an vans all day repairing them but god forbid the Garda can't get his fcukin Big Mac for his lunch or his chicken fillet roll.
And I didn't get fcukin paid either but by all means please pay them first. I'm sure my rent and bills can wait

Interesting. Can you tell me why the notion of me paying my bills myself, at a time that suits me, with the fiscal weapon of my choice, sends you into a full foaming-at-the-mouth-neckbeard episode?

You throwing insults because I pointed out a safeguard in the system p*sses me off.

Otherwise, I couldn't really give a sh*te how you choose to pay things.

There's only person that I can see foaming at the mouth and throwing insults - what exactly is your problem?

I have BOI account and I got paid, how is that?

Your employer doesn't bank with BOI.

Outgoing payments from BOI were all that seem to be affected.

blackwhite

BOI have confirmed (to us at least) that any costs incurred by people will be refunded - below is an extract from what BOI sent to their business customers about an hour ago.

REFUNDS
There will be no issue with refunding charges incurred due to the processing of late payments. If your beneficiaries/staff advise you of any charges that have occurred as a direct result of this error, please request them to provide a list of Bank Details and the amounts involved so that these refunds can be facilitated by Bank of Ireland.

Any idea when it's to be sorted?

BOI have told us that it's now fixed, but any payments that were due to go through today won't arrive until tomorrow.

By your post you'd swear the public servants wages were going to be paid 1st as a priority over private sectors. How the funk does a IT malfunction differentiate between a public and private sector worker and thus prioritise the public servant? If somebody did a days work they are entitled to their wages on the day it is due to them. Who pays them is irrelevant. It just so happens that today is payday for a huge chunk of the public sector. Doesn't negate or belittle the private sector workers who haven't been paid either. Us public sector workers pay them same bills, rent and everything else just the same as you do.

Welcome to the real world where people don't pay on time.
I do feel sympathy for people but it is sad that some people can't manage if they don't get their money on time.

Spoke to our relationship manager in BOI there.

Any payments made through Bank of Ireland are affected, starting with last night's overnight files.

BOI have an outsourced processing service for payments files through SEPA, and the issue is with the outsourced service.

They are working to have it sorted before the close of business, but aren't guaranteeing anything.

So they outsource the service to the lowest price bidder to save a few pennies, and then they wonder why it screws up, leaving hundreds of thousands of customers on the hook?

I had to go out and sell myself this morning due to this.

I came back with €2.05. Mrs asked who gave ye the 5c.

I said everyone.......

Actually we contribute towards our own pension, and have no choice in the matter!!!

It is nothing do with public servants, the problem affected all BOI/JPM SEPA transactions.

Not trying to drag the thread off topic, but you contribute a hell of a lot less than what a worker in any other line of work would have to pay for a pension of similar value.

For anyone in the public sector, the pension arrangements remain a significant perk compared to the private sector.

you contribute to a nice Defined benefit scheme - see if any of your private sector buddies getting that?
I pay for mine.

anyway I was only slagging about the pension - I'm actually jealous.

your contributions bear no resemblance of what you will take out

do a calculation of what a private sector worker would have to put in to get the pension you will get upon retirement

The figures for how much it costs the taxpayer to fund an individual Garda pension are eye watering...
