NewAddress.ie - a new change-of-address notification service - was launched last week.

It allows house movers to tell organisations - like utilities, banks, insurance companies and telcos - of their new address in three easy steps and, as a result, take a lot of the hassle out of moving house. The company aims to have the majority of Ireland's leading brands with consumer databases on board over the next 12 months. Similar services in the UK and US have proved popular.
