Re: Lawyers cost to get Spain residency for EU national

Re: Sabadell now charging to receive payment from UK

Just make sure you are sending funds in EUR to an...

Re: Looking for a recommendation on mobile network provider in Spain, prices/opt

Re: A General Moan - Things that irk you about Spain!

Poverty is a problem that needs to be tackled head-on, also in Spain, but let's not forget we have a huge problem back home. What's the child poverty rate in the UK? 31%? Rising to 49% in...

Re: Looking for a recommendation on mobile network provider in Spain, prices/opt

Wow, just launched the Digi app to check my data usage so far and it seems my current tariff has been upgraded from 10GB to a whopping 20GB/mth. And all this still for the same price of €10.
