Caller: Their reputable name, the bank of Ireland, they'd never do anybody, they'd never hoodwink anybody.

Don't worry Joe, you and Tubridy read out plenty of free ads.

Mena Mitty · 28-01-2021 01:53PM

They turned it into bricks and mortar (hard earned)and then back into cold hard cash.

Did any of these people pay anything off the loan over the years.

PieOhMy · 28-01-2021 01:53PM

After this call shel head off to her gaff that was bought with the loan without a second thought.

Duffy is using this subject in order to keep himself popular to the older generation in order to keep them paying the TV licence because he is worth it.

"Is that loan paid off yet" she asks.

Not a feckin' cent was paid you eejit.

jetfiremuck · 28-01-2021 01:54PM

I ask again DID THE BANK FORCE YOU TO SIGN FOR THE LOAN Are all callers stupid.

People with no income will not get any money from the banks. Simples

It's a perfect loan for the old, live like Jagger.

The last cheque should bounce.

I honestly wouldn't mind if my folks leave me nothing. They weren't given anything themselves.

Today on Da Lahv Lahn:
People over 70 are old and vulnerable.

Tomorrow on Da Lahv Lahn:
People over 70 are very young people.

Why, it's almost as if nobody appreciated exactly what compound interest looks like.
After an illustration of it, I was well aware of the pitfalls, so avoided any loan with CI like the plague.
The stupid thing is, the BoI could have offered loans against property with simple interest and still made plenty of return over the long haul.
The application of CI to any loan against property is fundamentally dishonest, knowing they were dealing with people who were financially unsophisticated and didn't expect bad-faith selling from an institute they'd trusted for years.

There's warnings on cigarette packs too.

You took out a life loan to give money to your children to buy houses. Sell your house, pay off your loan and move in with your children

I'm going to make up a story for Joe, email it in and mention a few Polish cities. Rzeszow would be another fun one for him.

"So anyway Joe, this Polish plumber came over and put up the gutters, covered my lovely driveway in tarmac and tried to sell me some gold coins from a mint. He told me that his mother had him in a home in Ireland, and that he was adopted in the USA to a lovely Catholic Polish family. When he was two, they returned to Poland and settled in Bydgoszcz. His adopted mother was from Gdynia and his adopted father from Bialystok. He came to Ireland in search of his mother, but the nuns wouldn't help, so he settled in Cavan where he sat in a house without turning on the lights for four years, before deciding to get into the plumbing game."

Must have been very dramatic when the bank man and the regulator showed up to meet the old deaf and and blind people with saw off shotguns and baseball bats with nails through them and bullied them into signing up for the loan.

So your annoyed you won't get the house?!

This is the only problem.

Greedy children.

Why not loan mammy & daddy the money yourselves to ensure 'your' inheritance is safe? But they don't want to do that...in case fair deal comes along a takes a bite out of the house. They want it everyway.

They are deluded. This show needs some sanity from someone like Brendan Burgess.

Does nobody ever do a few basic sums? I don't expect everybody to know about everything, but there are such resources to help you find out these days, to show you exactly how to work out these things.

It's a competitive world, so to speak.

2smiggy · 28-01-2021 01:56PM

the plan was always for them to die, the banks would not have planned for eternal life of the people taking out the loans

gmisk · 28-01-2021 01:57PM

This is nothing like the tracker mortgage scandal.
Absolute nonsense.

Heres an idea....pay back the loan and it goes away...as if by magic!

2smiggy · 28-01-2021 01:57PM

wait, yesterday the problem was lack of warnings, today it is too many warnings ?!?

PieOhMy · 28-01-2021 01:57PM

So rte are complicit in this??
