I will compile a list of things people can actually do to keep up the momentum of the campaign. Other suggestions welcome
- Contact all your TDs. The best thing is to visit them at their constituency office. If they have a public meeting, attend that and raise the issue. Phone them. Email them. Some TDs have said that this is not an issue for them as no one has complained. Let us know the response you get here.
- Speak to your local media. The media love stories. So if you contact your local newspaper or a national newspaper, they will feature the story.
- When you hear the issue being discussed on radio, call or text the radio station
- Complain to the Central Bank
- Complain to the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission - they have said that they don't consider it a good use of their resources.
- Complain directly to the Minister for Finance
- If you see a politician speaking up on the issue e.g. Michael McGrath or Brian Hayes, email them and thank them.
- Write about it on social media -
- Facebook, SVR Mortgages Ireland
- Twitter
- boards.ie
- politics.ie
- And anywhere else online
- When you see a newspaper article which allows readers to respond - respond and tell your story
