For weekly/monthly/annual, paid cash? unknown but likely

Taxsaver tickets? Unlikely due tax issues (Irish Rail indicate yes but we know the revenue won't like it) Bear in mind you don't own the ticket, your employer does
If you buy a bus ticket you should be entitled to you money back as you are effectively paying on the double for your journey.
Infact this whole episode will make up my mind as to whether I renew my Taxsaver Rail Only Ticket or not, as I find I can get to work quicker by getting the 67X instead of the train and the Dublin Bus Taxsaver Ticket is cheaper.
