Questions Asked

Hi . I have a property in Italy and would like to do online shopping. I find Italian amazon and eBay very expensive for shipping costs and wonder if there are equivalent Italian sites ? Thank you Adriana

Hi . I currently have an Italian bank account which was passed to me many years ago from my grand parents. I am now being advised by the bank that I need to change it as I am not a resident.

Unfortunately this is a quarterly charge. Certainly on my account. It tends to vary depending on how many cheques you have written , direct debits or used cashline. Hopefully yours is an annual charge but italian banking is much more expensive than in the UK .

Heard Ryanair are going to weigh all passengers on their outbound journey then if they weigh more on their return they will have to pay an excess per pound wink

I can highly recommend Grancasa - prices reasonable and they deliver within 2-3 days -again delivery charge is very low.
