QYou consistently show AIB click credit card rate as 13.6% - but it is charging me 8.5%. I feel others should know this - or is the high rate for new business? AThe 13.6% rate is correct as a comparable APR. A few months ago, an EU directive came into force requiring banks to include the stamp duty on cards in their calculation of interest rates.
I wrote about it at the time, pointing out that I thought it was a bit stupid. But that's the way it is. The rate being charged by AIB on your card didn't change but the actual declaration of the rate for comparison purposes with other cards did.

Getting the best value in credit cards has become more complicated. The EU has demanded that the Government stamp duty of EUR 30 a year be included in the calculation for the annual percentage interest rate quoted. So the best buy Bank of Ireland Clear card is now shown as charging 13.3pc rather than the 10.9pc quoted a week ago. AIB adds to the confusion by quoting an 'annual interest rate' of 9.11pc for its Click card although the APR is given as 13.6pc.

Introduction Discussions over regional spending priorities are sometimes put in the context of how important public spending is in supporting activity in some regions compared with others - and this may be quite significant for regional economic prospects at a time when public finances nationally are under increasing pressure.

HAVE found out that there is outline planning permission for two houses on the plot of land directly across from the house I want to buy.
It was approved in February 2000 and so is almost expired, but I am nervous that the applicant may try to extend permission or submit a full application with specification of the properties to be developed. It seems that the person who made the application no longer lives in the property. Is a planning application tied to the applicant, or is this irrelevant?
