    Will you be answering questions on how many customers you screwed in the tracker mortgage scandal? By all accounts you treated your mortgage holders worse than the other banks.

    Good to see a large estate agent giving advice, the same agents that tried to pass off houses as being in Firhouse two years ago when they were south of Old Court Road. All for the purpose of extracting an extra few thousand. They are now selling houses advertised as being in Ballycullen that are as close to Ballycullen as I am to winning the lotto regardless of what postal code they decide to use. Firhouse is in Dublin 24 and Ballycullen is in Dublin 16 and there is no part of it in Dublin 24.

    I will not mention the name of the agents but bottom line is, this type of false advertising does no good.

    @Tom Fennelly: Thats what people want, there are apartments in Finglas, but were sold as being in Glasnevin, the people living there use Glasnevin as their address , the only issue is with taxi drivers, you have to explain that its actually in Finglas before they know where to bring you…

    Parasites. The idea that everyone can stay “one step ahead” of everyone!

    KBC have you no shame? You defrauded hundreds of your customers and your CEO gave the two fingers to the Oireachtas Finance Committee. The Bank of You? The Bank of No Shame.

    A Stewart Lee quite fits well here. People going to this are like captured partisans digging their own mass grave.

    @Shane Gleeson: You just come across as really jealous and resentful of those who want to get on the property ladder in Dublin.

    @Karen Doyle: I live and own in Dublin. When I bought I didn’t take my advice from property shills, which was what I was referring to.

    @cortisola: why? if a parasitic organisation such as KBC has the neck to pay for advertising on this forum, particularly in the light of its outrageous behaviour, there should be no restrictions on people having their say. You would however wonder about the stupidity of KBC advertising on a forum that does permit comments, one suspects KBC would be best advised to keep a low profile at the moment

    An absolute disgrace to have a fraudulent bank like KBC allowed to advertise their Toxic products on the journal.
