Re: Does anyone else speak 'Italish'?

The same often happens to my husband when he's in a touristy place. And he's Italian!

Although we speak Italian together, we always say certain words in English, like cuddle and pudding!

Re: Blondies in Italy- question

Me too! I haven't been to an Italian hairdresser for ages now as I just couldn't cope with all the layers they cut in. I just let it grow and then get a good cut when I go back to the UK. As for...

Re: Christmas Holidays for Employees

If they're going to deduct the days from her holiday allowance then she must have one! What type of contract does she have?

Re: tredicesima e quattordicesima...HELP

Oops, I got the tredicesima and quattoridicesima in the wrong order. When I got them, the quattordicesima was in June and the tredicesima in December. It does depend on your contract but I suppose if...

Re: tredicesima e quattordicesima...HELP

Hi Mr Posh,

I think it works like this.

Say your wife starts work in March 2011, the tredicesima gets paid in June and the quattoridicesima in December. In June she'll have worked for 4 months...

OK, I give up! Call my opinions stupid and rubbish if you want. I was only trying to help. No need to be aggressive. Please read all my posts again. You haven't understood anything.

Re: Starting Self Employment in Italy + IVA questions

Did you at least notice that it's the same thing as ritenuta d'acconto?! Can you find any authorative link that says that 'ritenuta d'acconto' is a term meaning receipt? No. Because it isn't. Simple.

Re: Starting Self Employment in Italy + IVA questions

Aaaah! I get your problem now. You don't get what 'witholding tax' is! I'd post a link but I'm on my mobile. Google it. Nothing to do with tax evasion!

Re: Starting Self Employment in Italy + IVA questions

Oh gosh Lorna. Please don't get angry! You've missed my point. Ritenuta d'acconto as a concept exists. It means withholding tax. It's money that your employer pays directly to the tax people on your...

Hi Lorna, I think you're just confused over terms. Look up ritenuta d'acconto in a dictionary. You'll see it means withholding tax. What you issue the people you work for is often, wrongly, referred...

Re: Starting Self Employment in Italy + IVA questions

Being a bit pedantic back but ritenuta d'acconto means withholding tax. You can't issue a ritenuta d' acconto. You can issue a notula con ritenuta d'acconto which is basically a receipt with...

Re: Starting Self Employment in Italy + IVA questions

Just to make this a bit clearer, you can issue a "notula" for occasional work. If the person/company you are issuing it to has a partita IVA, they pay 20% of the total amount to the tax people on...

Re: Selling Online?? Not for Italians???

Re: Moans, groans, grunts and wheezes...

I have Alice ADSL and I've just done the test on this site.

The results are: PING 64 ms, DOWNLOAD SPEED 6.89 Mbps, UPLOAD SPEED 0.40 Mbps.

Is that any good?

Re: Sky Box question-Duffer help!

Hi Isakat,

For VPN, I can highly recommend My Private Network. It costs £5 a month but there are no ads and it works all the time. Don't know what I'd do without it :D
