You are not alone! Most people have problems with their Italian Builders! My sister who is Italian took the builder to court. It took 5 years to settle and she won the case but the lawyer fees took all the money. :roll:

Longer term car insurance for Europe

Does anyone know of a car insurance that allows you to stay abroad for about 4 months at the time without having to return to the UK?
We are with Saga and they provide that but will not ensure our son when he vists because he is only 26

I too had problems logging on, but I requested a new password and sorted it quickly. I have sent myself an enquiry to see if it worked and it came through.

I have to renew my insurance with Intasure and spoke to them. They have been able to lower the quotation because now they go by the number of bedrooms rather then the square meteres. It may be useful for some of us.

I have had an e mail to say that it has been extended until the end of April and that you can get another month at the $1.99 x month if a guest posts a review before April the 18th.
