Re: wifi rental

I use Portugal Internet and have been very happy with them and their support is great. Coverage was very good too. http://www.portugalinternet.com/

Edit: Flat rate, unlimited data.

Re: A22 for foreign registered cars

Re: A22 for foreign registered cars

Any updates on what happens with foreign registered cars? I'll be driving down with a German registered car and I can tell you from experience that Italy prosecutes aggressively using an outsourced company to get the details of the owner and try and get payment for driving in city centers.

Re: disabled badges

If it's the blue badge with the UK symbol with the stars around it and the wheelchair symbol then it is valid in all EU countries including Switzerland, Iceland and Norway.

Re: Condominium Fees

Thank you mardi! If I may ask a follow up question: are your fees based on size of the unit? And if so, how large is yours? I've noticed as well that the agents are not so keen to even say how high the fee is. I understand they don't want to provide all of the details such as the association meeting...
