Quote from: David McKeown on January 14, 2024, 10:30:48 PMThere's limits on how much businesses can take in cash before they have to refer the amount for money laundering regulations.  The figure depends on the business but for solicitors offices its 1,000 i think its 5k for car sales but might be wrong
The wife got about 2 grand in cash out a while ago to pay a tiler or something and she got quizzed in Santander as to what it was being used for. Surely you can take your own cash out and do what you want with it.

I don't think I have ever written a cheque apart from a few times in work. Do people still have cheque books?

Paid a  tradesman recently for work done,  by cash.  If he chooses  not to declare  those earnings , I really couldn't give  two frigs.  I got the work done , and that's  all I care about.

I've no problems paying cash to builders, as you say what they declare is on them, but we shouldn't then complain about dole merchants and global companies getting government tax breaks.

If you are paying cash does he reduce the cost of the work done?

Tony, was the cash just for the labour done or the cost of the tiles as well? Whole house must be decked out on tiles lol! As you get older you need carpets, falling on carpet is easier on the hips ;)

I asked the wife about it last night. It turns out that her brother a friend paid when our their bathroom done up as he could claim back the VAT and then we another friend paid him the cash price ex. VAT and that's when they got questioned by the bank.  ;)

Milltown Row2

Yeah there are all sorts of ways of claiming things or not claiming things, as long as I'm not being ripped off and the work done is up to her standard then I'm happy

Its not lurgan but i put it here


Reports are emerging that a number of masked and armed men entered numerous bars in Dungiven tonight.

The men, who it is believed were armed with guns, are reported to have issued threats a short time ago.

It is understood the gang warned punters and staff that they will take action against those selling drugs.

Sinn Féin Councillor Sean McGlinchey confirmed that licensed premises in the town had been targeted by three individuals who were armed.

"This is not the way forward. If anyone has any issues with drugs, there are better ways to address them and resolve them," he said.
