Re: Gas and electricity suppliers

Isn't it the other way around? I remember comparing my mains gas with my parents GPL bills a few years ago and it was about 3 times more expensive for them per unit.

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

Wasn't that just another non-issue that disappeared in no time. I remember thinking when that article came out last year that if they were only stopping foot passengers then the chances are they...

Re: PAYG eSim

The Simyo deal is pretty impressive, I almost switched until I saw UK roaming is not included. We only visit the UK 2 or times per year but 1GB of data per visit breaks the deal. The thing to...

Re: PAYG eSim

The last time I checked only Vodafone and Movistar were offering eSIM in Spain and their prices are a little high when compared to Digi. A complete pain if you're looking for an Apple watch or a US...

Re: Gas and electricity suppliers

Wow. At that price the ROI on solar panels must be in months as opposed to years

Re: Train travel revolution benefits Spain

We've also booked with Iryo from Valencia to Madrid, going in June. I can't remember the breakdown but it was 55 Euro for 2 return tickets. I'll let you know how it compares.

Now all we need is a...

Re: Gibraltar 2

Hopefully completed at a good price... Jokes aside good to see it's finally ready.

I wonder how long the tunnel to Morocco will take, if it ever happens.

Re: Retiring to the Ostuni area

It's not my cup of team personally but I wouldn't put it on the rough list. It's an OK place but it's very convenient as it's half way between the coasts, half way between Taranto and Brindisi, very...

Re: Best deals on broadband

Wow, that's really good. The last time I checked it was 100/month. In Spain it's now 70/month. For once Italy gets the best deal. At 50 it's well worth it. Out of curiosity, what are the upload...

Re: Firestick

Yes it does. It also works with BBC, ITV, HBO Max, Apple TV and Amazon. Possibly more but I haven't tried. The only think to consider is you need to sideload the apps. Downloader App—How to...

Re: Firestick

Hopping in from the Spain forum. Interesting you should mention it. Last week I couldn't connect to NetFlix, BBC etc when using Smart DNS on my TV. The only solution I could find was to sideload...

Re: RAI television license

Yes, I think they're all blocking smart dns connections. Nord is working fine from the phone and Firestick.

Re: RAI television license

Just go for the FireStick Lite. We have a 4K Max and the Lite and I can't see any difference apart from the remote being more friendly on the 4K. Really handy for travel too as you can actually...

Which one are you using? I use Nord which blocked me from Netflix and iPlayer last week using SmartDNS directly on the TV but when I use it on the app through a Firestick it works. My subscription...

To give you an idea of winter running costs, in the summer I'm paying around 125 per month with the AC running. Autumn, winter and spring it's around 60 per month. My gas bill hovers around...

Re: RAI television license

They would receive even more money if they let ex-pats buy a subscription to iPlayer. I rarely watch anything other than BBC online.

Re: Retiring to the Ostuni area

That's really interesting, thanks. You will also find fellow Brits if you visit a supermarket at lunchtime, more at Lidl, and even more near the cheddar cheese section of Lidl.

Re: UK Sim card in Italy

You could just get the GiffGaff eSIM. Assuming it's the same as all the others it takes a few minutes from the comfort of your armchair.
