PUP reduced

[Justin Time]

So today for many the PUP was reduced.
My understanding was that if you were receiving 350 euro it was to be reduced to 300 euro and those receiving 250euro it would be reduced to 200 euro.
( I stand corrected)

Up until today i was getting the 350 but today only 250. ( i was expecting 300) Have I got it wrong ? or have the social got it wrong and sent me the wrong amount?
Thanks

Did you get a letter off them Justin? I did. Mine also went from 350 to 250. On the back if the letter it has the figures from my last tax return. If you declared less than 300 a week, after expenses,  you go on the 250.

I got no letter /e mail nothing, from anyone. I was/am surprised that it went to 250,I thought it was going to be reduced to 300.
How the F**k am I suppose to keep me head above water?? Im still paying FULL taxi insurance as well, even though im not working it!

Justin why are you running a taxi with all the associated expenses when you're on the scratcher.Bit silly really IMO.Cancel your insurance and you'll instantly put 40/50 a week back in your account.

And just in case nobody told you you will be getting reduced to 203 on Febuary 1 should you still need it.

Yes i posted this before, BUT the insurance people told me IF i reduce my insurance to domestic I HAVE to notify the NTA, who will "suspend my licence".
However, you can only do this for 3 months,and thats expired, thats why i went back onto taxi insurance.
Thanks.

Justin my plate is lapsed.It doesn't matter as currently there are no late renewal fees.I can reactivate it for up to a year.So you're paying out money now that you might need in January.It isn't gonna get busier that's for certain.

Your plate is lapsed? I only sent a mail to the NTA the other day to ask if I could suspend my licence again and they said no, i could only do so for 3 mths!!!

Justin if you cancel your insurance it lapses automatically.Then you have up to 12 months to reactivate it.The NTA will notify you when it lapses.No big deal.There is no reason not to laspe it unless you plan on working.

Let it lapse Justin, put your insurance on social and domestic. When you're going back reactivate everything.

Jesus Mary and holy Saint Joseph I wish could get away with declaring less than 300 pw! Sure that wouldn't cover the car loan, insurance, nct, suit, services, petr'l, donuts, kebabs, and all before you put a pan of Brennan's bread (tadayas bread, tadaya) and whatever other random fuk ups the car decides to throw your way every second month.
Do some of these guys only declare that they're working 18 hours a week?
What's the tax bill after deductions? A fiver or summat??

Thanks I'll let them know, I thought by them saying I could only suspend it for 3 months meant I had to go back on taxi insurance.
