DISQUS

Hmm, you'd have thought in the current climate that they'd be falling over themselves to load you the money. I have come across this problem before when a non-Irish neighbour of mine wanted to do the same. However, he seemed to think he only needed to be living here 1 year instead of 4.

I might be worth contacting the Financial Regulator of some department therein. Isn't there an ad on the TV at present promoting some branch of the Financial Regulator, things explained in plain English etc. www.itsyourmoney.ie ???

Seems crazy to me. You'd imagine that with a secured loan there wouldn't be a problem. Even if you were to skip the country, it's unlikely that you'd be able to bring the house away with you and the bank would have possession of the deeds.
It's unlikely to work, but have you tried a South African bank?
The citizens' advice bureau might be able to help given the numbers of people immigrating here.
