Brendan, thank you so much for this amazing thread and all the work you have put in to make this appeal so easy. When I got my letter I took it at face value and it wasn’t until I read your argument yesterday that I saw the merits in it.
Rang AIB yesterday for appeals pack, they said they’d email me it but it would take 48 hours - 5 days!!! Also, they wouldn’t give me a case number, is this required to be included in the appeal?Rang BDO yesterday and they are requesting I submit a letter for an extension and also said they would only accept the original appeals form from the bank! I’ve the uploaded form from this site filled out and ready to go, is there any way they can tell the difference between an original and the one from this site considering I’m getting the pack emailed to me? Also, if I send the appeal via registered post and the delivery date of the letter from an post is prior to 16th March, can the BDO state that I missed the appeals deadline if they don’t actually open and acknowledge my appeal until after the 16th?
