Coronavirus, Flybe, Consumer Parliament and Talk Talk
The collapse of Flybe - what are your rights? Travel disruption as the Coronavirus continues to spread. Consumer Parliament - how Northern Ireland compares with the UK.
The collapse of Flybe cancels 80 percent of flights at Belfast City Airport but what are the knock on effects for Northern Ireland鈥檚 economy? The Competition Watchdog has warned retailers not to "exploit" fears about Coronavirus by jacking up the price of protective goods like hand gels and face masks. The CMA said it has been monitoring sales and pricing practices and will take action against those who break the law. The Coronavirus continues to spread across the world and efforts to contain it have knock on effects - sports events have been cancelled, schools have been closed and travel disrupted for thousands of people. At the Consumer Parliament we discussed how Norther Ireland consumers compare with those in the rest of the UK? Also the death of a spouse is difficult enough, but sorting out all the paperwork only adds to the difficulties especially when it comes to changing accounts with some providers.
