What is the health service cost for amandola, we have been quoted 7.5% of UK earnings but there is a minimum charge of 388:00 euros. This is based on earnings upto 21,658 euros means having to pay 1,500 euros for cover!!! Is this correct???

Jayne, As you can see from from my previous comment be careful we checked into the company and they had insurance we even took their ref number for the policy and they were recommended. But after damaging our goods they will not send us a claim form and we cant go direct. We are putting this through trading standards and just trying to sue them from italy not easy.

Hi Rachel - It looks like we are about in the same position as you, trying to sort it all out before the 18 months are up. Our property is in the sibillini mountains and we need to start some work before the cold weather sets in.  If we want to be residents we will need work in Italy before we can get any help with repair work ? Lots of you must have been through this and find it boring now but when your in the middle of it, its not fun.

Penny Whenever I ask about grants or help with renovation it seems to go quiet and dont seem to get an answer from the Italians. Do you have any information that could help us.
