    You don't need to know a Guard- I call into my local guards de temps on temps for forms other than that have no dealings with them, different person each time.

    I have often called in to Store St and got whatever I needed signed too

    I don't know any Gardai yet I've had forms signed by going to my local Garda Station and asking them to do so. Maybe try that?

    You don't have to know a Guard personally, you just have to go to one!

    I can't wait until the Gardai start charging €10-20 to get a form signed. De Lahv Lahn will explode dat day so to speak.

    She should be delighted that her mammy is "not known to the Guards"!

    If the banks weren't sure these people existed, some of the rellies would carry on using the accounts to put money through, I've no doubt.

    Why don't the banks have 3 million different rules for each and every customer in the country, the inconsiderate gits.

    The thing is that if they create loopholes for every person over the age of 50 then the criminals will start using oldies banks for terrorist financing, if they aren't already....so to speak

    Joe's job is to get involved in these debates, but how come he refuses to ask so many obvious questions.

    Who is going to sign all the forms on Friday? The Army?

    They'll bring out the army but they'll have to go home at lunchtime for their dinner.

    I know "someone" who's a doctor. She declared her mudder insane (wit her mudder's approval btw) so to speak in order to get planning permission on her mudder's land and thus circumvent the ridiculous planning laws in Meath so to speak (they're blow ins).

    Been there and faced this nonsense from banks. It's utterly ridiculous, relatively small amounts of money were involved in the case I know of. The elderly had a serious stroke and disabled but 'all there'. You'd swear that the bank was putting as many obstacles as possible in their path just so as to keep their money on the bank balance sheets.

    In the end, it was dealt with by someone phoning and pretending to be them and copying their signature. All dubious practice but ordinary people have to find a way around this rubbish.
