I wouldn't have said this a week ago but I hope they cut the 350 on 10th June, as it will give me an excuse to go back working. I have had enough of this holiday now, id rather be out there earning 200 euro per week than getting 1000 euro a week sitting at home.

I wonder will they give me your €350 ? I've to put a second coat on the gaff!

Only 2 more PUP payments to come - assuming we're paid weekly in advance. Anyone applied for Jobseekers yet?

[Rat Catcher]

Thanks.  Never dealt with SW before so don't know the ins & outs.

I'm not necessarily suggesting you are wrong to be over cautious. These are by definition unusual payments so the usual repayment terms may not apply... who knows, we could all end up in Mountjoy when our claims are reviewed. When they first mentioned that all claims will be reviewed they certainly gvave the impression that downward adjustments would not be made hence it seemed fair to conclude that repayments wouldn't be sought... but then they also said they would backdate payments back then, that changed fairly lively.

I've gotten 8 payments so far which leaves 4 more PUPs I think.Got my first on the 31 March.

The 12 weeks isn't personal, it's universal and ends on Mon 8th June.

[mercenary for hire]

My understanding is you get 12 payments regardless of when you started to get paid.Hope you are wrong!

[Rat Catcher]

Don't be silly. I wasn't asking you, I was telling you!

I'm optimistic!!

Decision due soon on extending Covid-19 unemployment payment, says minister https://jrnl.ie/5103098

[Rat Catcher]

Nervously optimistic? I can't see it staying at €350 or being extended for those who haven't complied with the original T&Cs by applying for Jobseekers...

[mercenary for hire]

I'm still expecting 12 weeks.My first application was delayed by nearly 2 weeks because they said my bank details were wrong.I have the letter so a little come back.

[Rat Catcher]

Shame they stopped backdating it. Unless it's universally extended you'll be out of pocket.

They fukked up a loada applications.My phone number was on the first one I sent and they made no attempt to contact me.Half the country is in a similar situation.
