Re: Go compare
:(Yes, I've been threatened with being cut off once before, for the same reasons. If the bills arrive reasonably in advance of due date, then I always make sure they are paid right on the dot. If the postal service is in fact becoming generally so abysmal, I think it is becoming fodder for 'Mi manda Rai Tre'.
ciao for now, 'o nonno P.S. received a letter from Siena postmarked 02/07/2010 YESTERDAY 27/08/2010. A Roman army would have made it quicker! |
Re: Go compare
All my bills arrive with alarming frequency.
Get direct debits set up (if you have an Italian bank account) and then you won't ever risk getting cut off when your bills are so late. You also avoid paying the Post Office charge this way. |
Re: Go compare
:)Thanks for the suggestion Lorna, but I have cancelld all my direct debits, cioe' any that I had. a) I don't trust my bank and b) I want to see all my bills before they are paid. Prefer to stay with 'traditional' methods now that only income is pension, which I also collect in cash. You may call me a luddite.:lol:

I love the UK supermarkets. In Sainsburys I get my own scanner, scan my own goods and just pay at the check out. Imagine. Buy one get one frees etc - love those but Italy hasn't caught onto that. GS just does not compare. |

OOOOOPS, Slip of the brain. Not per month on the council tax, per week. It's not a shed in Wandsworth and if it were it would probably £25.00 per day!!!!:rofl: |

ciao for now, 'o nonno We also have a major postmen problem. Even the post office knows what a **** he is because so many people complain. They tell everyone to write to Rome! |
