Have an account with Ulster Bank ROI which is going to close and I need to switch to another bank
Anyone familiar with EBS?
Was thinking of switching to their Money Manager account which doesn't have a monthly or quarterly maintenance fee and no minimum deposit amount

Has anyone any experience of Fibrus yet? They are due to upgrade my area shortly. I'm joining a Hyperfast NI update event via teams this evening, anything I should look out for? Currently I have approx 17mbps download speed and 1mbps upload.

Anyone get Fibrus yet, What's it like?
Bit of criticism here over their pricing structure

Anybody know how long it takes to get registered and approved for the NI COVID app?
Can you get approved over the weekend?
I'm assuming you need it for Spain?

Shouldn't take long at all few hours I think.

Thankyou

What's the initial costs and ongoing costs of a mobile home in places such as Bundoran/Downings etc? Do you have to buy the caravan and change every so often?

Anyone got mechanical heat recovery ventilation? Is it a spoof or is it any use? Architect seems to think its necessary to get through building control. Could do without it as it seems pretty expensive.
It's definitely money well spent
No point spending thousands on insulation/airtightness without it
No need for bathroom window open. Will clear shower steam in under an hour
Vent axia is a decent model
Try Homecare in Donaghmore or Atlantic Air in Dunamore/Kildress
There's plenty more suppliers than BEAM out there

Any confirmation on how many teams are relegated from Division 2 in the 2021 season.
There were two pieces of correspondence batted about recently the first said 2 teams would be relegated from Division 2 and 4 would be relegated from Division 1. The second said that 4 teams would be relegated from both Division 1 and Division 2.
4 x relegated out of Div 1
2 x relegated out of Div 2
You're safe for another year 😉

No, it's 4 relegated from each division.

2021 League And Championship Details Released By CCC

The CCC has received responses from 27 from Division 1 and Division 2 Clubs regarding the 2021 league proposals. The responses are summarised below -

Total number of responses from Clubs - 27
Total number of responses from Division 1 Clubs - 17 (1 failed to respond)
Total number of responses from Division 2 Clubs - 10 (4 failed to respond)

Breakdown of responses by division
Division 1 Clubs - 11 Clubs favoured Option A and 6 Clubs favoured Option C
Division 2 Clubs - 5 Clubs favoured Option A, 2 Clubs favoured Option B and 3 Clubs favoured Option C

Breakdown of all responses -
Option A - 16
Option B - 2
Option C - 9

As shown above, the majority of Clubs are in favour of Option A (see below). Clubs are also overwhelmingly in favour of a straight knockout Championship. No Clubs offered counter proposals to using penalty kicks to decide the 'Winner on the Day' and quite a few responses were in favour of retaining penalty kicks.

Option A - A full league programme plus knockout championship. The number of starred games would be increased to 9 games in Division 1 and 7 games in Division 2. It would also mean 4 teams would be relegated from Division 1, with 2 teams relegated from Division 2.

Congratulations  to kileeshil for making league final


I've said it before why kildress never conceded the league I'll never know I have no interest in a junior double. It held up the whole of Tyrone on a pipe dream.for what......

May the best team win in the kileeshil v town.

I think Kileeshil need 1 more point to be mathematically assured of place in final
Kildress have 2 games to play and theoretically could overtake them if Kileeshil didn't pick up any more

The building control cert is only one of several documents you can use as evidence in the North
You Can also use rates cert or a letter from your bank or building society
You can make 1 claim 3 months after the date of the document you are using as evidence
