you know, they know now who you are because they got the details of the Revolut accounts when the High Court, you know, told the supplier to hand these over.

But, you know, it'll be worrying for some people.
Others just won't care and they'll just say, you know, I don't care.
But look, it's not just Sky here.
We're also talking about Clubber.
We're talking about Clubber TV, League of Ireland TV, LOI TV and GAA Plus, plus Premier Sports.
they're all mentioned in the letter that was sent to these 200 people saying cease and desist.
You know, and you have certain sympathy with LOI TV and GA Plus, you know, these are small organisations compared to the Premier League and they have subscription-based models and they just see it as piracy.

And today, PTSB have brought out a new variable deposit account.
It's called a 32-day notice account with a variable rate of 1.25.
Now, they're saying that is the best among the pillar banks in the country.
And, you know, you can take it out if you give them 32 days notice without any penalty whatsoever.
