If anyone is needs to get a refund for Transavia they have hidden the reclaim page in their complaints section. Even then they want to know every detail about you and, although they should refund to the CC that was used to pay with they want your bank's IBAN and Swift codes and the location of the b...

The town hall might be the place to try. http://www.fuengirola.es. The contact for the Foreigners department is [email protected] 952 58 93 00. Social Services 952 58 25 44, 952 46 70 44, 952 46 35 25. The Mayor's office is 952 58 93 10. Good luck.

We have some rusty marks on some patio tiles left by a cast-iron umbrella base. Is there a way to clean off these marks? The tiles are matt not glossy.

I can't find a list of the cancelled routes, has anyone seen it? I read that they have already emailed the latest affected passengers so all of our flights are OK I suspect.... until the next round!

This was in El Pais:
... a larger item is limited to dimensions of 55cm by 40cm by 20cm. The smaller item comes in at 35cm by 20cm by 20cm.

What puzzles me is that this system is allegedly to reduce delays by people bringing wheelies onto the plane but the article states that the wheelies will be collected 'at the gate'. That can't be right surely? They must mean on the tarmac otherwise staff would be required to hump all the wheelies t...

We too! Out and back to/from Eindhoven both on affected days! I don't see mention of which airports but I would be surprised if Seville isn't one of them.

Thanks. My daughter and grandchildren passed through on their way to UK yesterday. She said longer than usual queue for the FR STN flight plus she was queried about her son's surname as she now uses her maiden name. That has never happened before as the checks were cursory but they were more compreh...

Has anyone departed from Seville to UK or other non-Schengen countries very recently? I'd like to know if there are any extra delays there.

I received notification today of a schedule change to a return flight in October. The change was more than one hour so I was entitled to change the flight FOC if I wished. As it happened we had been thinking of changing our return date but were put off by the inevitably high cost so we forgot about ...

We could smell the smoke at midnight last night. Friends couldn't return from their beach houses in Matalascañas until very late because the roads were closed. An environmental disaster. There's an online petition to encourage the junta to replant asap and not to let developers in now that the land ...

Fingers crossed. I've no idea how long 'activation will take...'

We attended the brand, spanking new INSS office in Sanlúcar la Mayor this morning. Just a tip before I go on. If you get an appointment for 9 am, the world and his wife get that time too so go to the entrance early and queue. Inside there are machines to enter your NIE and obtain a ticket. Then watc...

That's what I thought too. However, I will still take everything else mentioned here including a Padrón if I can get them in time. I am wondering if the DOCUEMNTO QUE LO ACREDITE they mention is the 'Documento Acreditativo del Derecho a la Asistencia Sanitaria' which I also have.

Earlier today I had emailed our local INSS office to ask them how to proceed. I was pleasantly surprised to receive a helpful reply just now: Buenas tardes , Efectivamente su esposa aparece sin derecho a “ asistencia sanitaria “, tal como le han informado en el Centro d Salud de Villamanrique. Al ob...

We have an appointment for Thursday morning. (You saved me time there, Gasman, thanks). Both copies of S1 were retained by INSS last time. Silly me didn't keep a copy. I do have the S1 accompanying letter from Newcastle but I doubt that will be much use. More importantly, I have the signed and stamp...

I am wondering what caused the sudden glitch. The documents you mention, apart from the passports, are the ones I took to them seven years ago. I hope I can find that S1... Thanks for the heads up about an appointment, I'll take a look. I recall the first time we did this we walked in and took a num...

An old thread but a search brought me here. About a month ago my wife's digital cert failed to log me in to get her an appointment at the doctors. I tried to log in manually and again I got a message that data was incorrect. However, there was no problem going to the health centre and getting the re...

I wonder, if challenged, which documentation would be required to prove one's eligibility under the rules?

I see that the NHS is to crack down on health tourism with new rules from April this year. As far as I can see emergency treatment continues for all but non-emergency treatment will have to be paid for upfront and systems will be introduced to ensure this happens. The reports all refer to 'foreigner...
