Do you mean that you get childrens' allowance for yourself when you turn 19?

Well it is a rip off. Do you feel ok about being ripped off? Or ripping off your parents.

in my first month of being an unemployed overqualified waster living with my parents i ran up a €120 phone bill with the internet. which is where pay being backdated a month comes in really handy.

Haha! A friend of mine is from a family of 5 girls. Their parents did the same. I rarely ever used my parent's phone. The friends that were nearby I usually cycled over to visit and the ones further away I used to write to... ah, those were the days.

I used to get so much hassle about the phone bill I never use it now. Dont care how much it costs me on mobiles I just cant listen to it

I'm refering to eircom's landline to mobile rip off. If you're ok with letting eircom continue to fleece you like this then I guess you have a point.

I used to spend ages on the phone to a buddy of mine who lived just around the corner. It didn't cost too much as far as I remember, a local call was a local call in them days no matter how long it went on
