Maybe give them a ring and ask what they suggest... they're nice enough to deal with... and let us know what they say!
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

There's no need to be confused, just go back to work and stop being a burden on the state!!!

Maybe someone else who's sponging off the state can be more helpful.

No need to resort to four letter words, Lizzy. A little decorum please.

The email I got last month said the limit is 3 months in total. I didn't notice that at the time but that's what sparked me into action today. Perhaps they are stretching the rules a bit on account of the pandemic? Anyway, I think I'll be going back next month regardless, €203 isn't really enough to keep me idling.

40 mins wait to get through to the NTA this morning!!

I can appreciate we are in unprecedented times but 40 mins wait and not acknowledging e mails either??

That's not good enough, especially when it affects our livelihood if we have one to go back to. A waste of space quango  of the highest order.

Ring them later in the day JT.The fact that there are other drivers desperate to get back on the road would bother me more.That's your competition keeping the phones busy.Where's all the work gonna come from if most of us come back in the next few weeks.

21 mins yesterday but I'm not working, the free money is plenty for my needs/wants so it was of no consequence. To be fair, as Octy notes, they're been extremely helpful through these difficult times.
