The overpayments occurred over many years, and 72% has already been recovered.
So that’s around €5-6m a year lost out of a social protection budget of tens of billions.
Ragebait is both rage and bait.
How long were they on jobseekers to receive that?
Tubridy gets all the luck
And they have free houses
>Another person wrongly received €299,989 in jobseekers’ allowance, while a similar case involving the same type of payment was valued at €282,881 in overpayment.
how is that even possible, its more than a 30 year back payment!!!! when most people only work 45 years in their life
> Overpayments can occur where a person provides false or misleading information in their application or **through error on the part of** either the claimant or **the department.**
There’s no breakdown within this to say how much was fraud.
Over 70% reclaimed
But how in the fuck does this happen?
Especially since I remember what it was like getting jobseekers 10 years ago (the worst time of my life)
I put it down to hiring incompetent people in the social welfare office cause I never would have gotten away with BS claims with the amount of means tests, visits and stuff I had to do so they wouldn’t stop my payment.
Is this the old Irish/english version of your name scam?
The Irish bank bailout of 2008 was €64 billion to unsecured bond holders let’s not forget that, if you’d like to be angry.
I was over paid €79.25 in 2021 and they haven’t stopped sending letters about it.

Glad to see they’re on top of everything else.
