    How to cheat The Dole:

    When you're in the queue to collect your €188 at the post office you must enter this code just as the person in front of you is about to walk away from the counter.

    Up, Down, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, A, B

    If you done it right you should get infinite ammo.

    and an army helicopter I think!

    Um... "Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A", is the proper code.

    Can I point out that SW and Revenue are actually doing checks on this kind of thing?
    As an accountant I used to do alot of work from home (on top of my PAYE job) and as such was registered for VAT, Income Tax etc etc
    I ceased registration for VAT & Income tax about 3 years ago when I passed all my clients on to another accountant as I had too much going on at home and I was starting to almost miss deadlines

    Anyway, low & behold I had a visit yesterday from Revenue & SW (together as in there were 2 of them travelling together in same car etc etc)

    They wanted to confirm that I wasn't doing nixers as my JSB has just expired and I'm not entitled to JSA they were curious as to what I was living on (answer = OH's wages)

    They went through the filing cabinet in my office (box room set up as an office since I got the house)
    They also wanted to know why there was a 2011 car parked in my driveway (its my sisters she was in the sitting room with my niece)

    I've nothing to hide
    (though I admit i was MORTIFIED by the pile of laundry in the upstairs landing (was sorting out clothes for charity):(

    The moral of the story.... OP relax its not your concern the authorities are dealing with it!

    I am sick of dole/tax cheats draining our economy. The black economy is thriving in Ireland with alot of workers seen the dole as a way of topping up their wages to pre-recession levels. Companies operating legitamitly cannot compete with competitors who are not tax compliant. I know alot of tradespeople who are working sporadically however they justify not signing off on the days they are working as they will only be signing back on in the coming weeks. From May 1st I will be passing on info on 1 Dole cheat per day to the social welfare for the month of May. Our country will never recover if this fraud continues.

    I very much doubt that you even know 31 people.

    That's the Konami code, that'll just spawn a silly hat on you.

    I like the OP's sense of drama. It reminds me of a film where one hostage will be killed every hour until etc...

    It enabled all missions in MGS2: Substance. I was hoping it'd do the same for me.

    When I was growing up I thought when people said: 'Nixer' - what they had actually said was: "Mixer". Then one day years later I starting talking about them and people laughed at me. Life can be so cruel :(

    Nope

    One off nixers now and then- I've no problem with.

    People working 9-5 for cash, claiming SW and benefits and moaning they barely have enough to get by deserve to be beaten with their wallets. I overheard a guy recently gettin 650 cash in hand a week, doing nixers 2 nights a week but also getting SW & Benefits.

    THAT p!sses me off.

Maybe in june you could report 30 people that are illegally fishing without a licence....you are without a doubt a gimp of the highest order...and i hate to burst your bubble but our country wont be recovering for a very very very long time fraud cheats or not..

    Cheats need to be outed regardless. Whether it saves the country or not, they should be locked up
