Jaysus! Just checked my rapidly depleting funds on my internet banking. Fcuking AIB **** raided both accounts for a total of a badly needed 60 quid.:eek: Could they not have come to an arrangement of some sort.:mad:

Couchside watching Contagion

Not great so far, but funny to see the cast all so young. will give it another few.

Is that Rush the Jennifer Jason Leigh/Jason Patric movie Grem? Great movie, amazing sountrack if so. Watched it a zillion times. Might switch to it somewhere now in fact!

Gremlinertia · 01-04-2020 08:51PM

It's a Formula 1 movie about the rivalry between Hunt and Lauda in the seventies, it's great.

You poor man. Absolutely shocking that they moved you there. And you can't even do your own washing now? Awful stuff. Hope you can survive in that dump, you poor unfortunate!

€54.99 from mine yesterday, and every 3 months. They write to remind you but I forgot the date so I got a shock. Life insurance came out too.

Just noticed in Pending €62.99 to Amazon UK.
Anything I bought from there, the funds went out straight away, so I don't like the look of that.

Are the pending ones not already taken? I think AIB is just slow, my account says pending on a bunch of crap and eventually they just change to charges but the total doesn’t change. My pending are also Amazon charges

There has been a huge backlash about the timing of this. It has on their website to contact them to discuss on an individual basis.

Hope so, Dave.

Thanks for infor anewme. Wonder if it'd be worth ringing them myself.

Apparently the fees aren't applied to accounts with more than €2,500 in them :rolleyes: lovely

Fireside thinking about trying Audible. Roald Dahl's "My Year" is free on it.

Leg End Reject · 01-04-2020 09:47PM

Finally finished dinner after a busy day. I've just read the last 2 pages, seems I'm down €120 for 2 card levies or whatever bollix they're calling it now.

Charged by the bank, charged by the government to use your own cards, I dread to think what they're going of think of when we're back to normal.

I hope you're all well and avoiding as much negativity as you can.

Nothing about halting fees. Could have done without it as every cent is counting now. I've no loans with them.

You can apply for a 3 month moratorium on loans and mortgages, or to reduce repayment etc. No doubt you build up interest on the arrears though!

The bastards have you every way.

I think bank charges are not applied to accounts with that kinda money, but those cards charges get pulled from every account with a card. It’s nonsense.

Audible is great! I listened to a book called “The Art of not giving a f##k” most recently, interesting take on things.

@Leg, I’d say we can assume that stupid USC charge is going to go up to pay back all the borrowed money.

There's been an annual charge for having your card for years now. Ironically enough, it's payable on April fools day. :rolleyes:

Fees are paid quarterly for the privilege of money going into and out of your account.

You're not charged an account fee if you have 2.5 grand in your current account, but sure I keep that kind of money up my arse doing nothing with it! :rolleyes:

USC will be the start of it, government levies were applied to all insurance products too in the last recession. They might add one to estimated oxygen consumption by weight next!

Gremlinertia · 01-04-2020 10:08PM

Honestly, the banks. I'm actually looking at moving providers because of this.. Bollocks

Leg End Reject · 01-04-2020 10:13PM

Ah look, we know the restrictions are necessary and we know a recession is coming. It's just harder to cope mentally when you don't know when the restrictions will lift and how the recession will affect us.

We recently came through a big one, we'll do the same again. Mentally older and more jaded perhaps, but still above ground I hope.
