Hi We need urgent information on this as we have been told what looks like rubble to us is "stabilizzante" a mix of gravel and sand to harden off and level out an area where a building has been knocked down to create a solid base....?

Hi Has anyone any idea if the Italian Poste has the equivalent of a bankers draft and if so, are there are any limits on the amount and what is the cost...?

Anyone care to hazard a guess at the current cost to have an old(ish) 250sqm house rewired? Also do you know if they do low level voltage lighting?

We are unsure about moving articles over there as opposed to buying when we get there, but know it will likely cost more to buy over there and be more hassle. So we want to get an idea of the cost of moving some of our stuff out there?

We are here in Abruzzo now and are thinking about privately buying a car. We have been told we need a notario to buy, is that correct? If this is the case does anyone have any idea of the likely cost?

Something not right as house tax is payable on the house, not the number living there. It would be for 2 people if the house is in both names. Rubbish tax is a different matter and normally based on number and sqm of the house.
Sounds promising ...
What you have to do is NOT think UK, I warn you now in Italy a contract is a laugh! You cannot enforce anything without incurring massive legal cost and they would potentially drag on for years. Meanwhile they will enforce payments with debt companies brought in to make your life hell… I hope your Italian is very good…. :)
I just highlighted Ugo's link text , right click and opened link in new tab in Firefox and the link worked fine....
Thank you Ugo for all your help to us in the past and hopefully the future.
I would look at what Ugo has, he has provided many here with good advice over many a year...
" Thanks. That story sounds familiar. Almost all the telcoms companies in the UK are like that :) "
No they are not and you have not encountered anything like you will in Italy should you take on a contract. Not saying you should not, but watch out!
To put it simply, it would seem to me they don’t have the knowledge to “fix” it and/or perhaps the inclination? Unfortunately for them I doubt they realise that the lack of activity in posting does not necessarily equate to how much business people reading the forum brings to them. But then again perhaps their business is in trouble? It is simple to stop new members posting links by number of posts and/or by time (the better option). Not many spammers will bother when these rules are in place. Other forums I’m a member of have this and other methods of stopping ALL spam e.g. moderator members who police spam.
Great result!
Great place to be, especially if you are not looking for work, but I'm guessing you know that. If you have not already done so, search "forum Italy" and "forum Lucca". Although most activity at the moment may be Facebook, that could change, so do both. Facebook might be a little harder, but a search "Lucca Facebook" I'm sure will bring up leads.
Very best of luck.
