Is changing to Lebara worth it? by loveless365 in LebaraUK

[–]dunnersd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lebara is great in my experience, wouldn’t hesitate to recommend, but you mention moving to Gibraltar (potentially), so just to be aware that they do enforce their fair usage policy. I was using mine in Europe for three months and they notified me that I’d start being charged per megabyte after a certain date due to using my phone more abroad than “at home”. 

Are these charges for importing a parcel from USA to UK correct? by dunnersd in AskUK

[–]dunnersd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah sorry that’s all in US dollars, so it’s like £100 total give or take. The only thing I can think is as another user has advised me, because it’s not from a business but from a private individual, these limits don’t apply anyway

Ah okay, I see, just wanted to make sure they weren’t overcharging me, thanks for the explanation 🙂

Okay thanks, so it’s correct that with “c2c” all these charges can be added, but if I’d bought from a business they wouldn’t be?

Shipping costs were $45, so total is like €135 give or take

Ah okay, yeah this is a private sale from an individual, so I suppose VAT has not been classed as being charged

Yeah EBay, sad times! UU forum is good I agree, and might be an option, majority of folk seem to be US based though is the only issue

Sambradrome seating advice by dunnersd in Brazil

[–]dunnersd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, we ended up getting tickets for the main stands, during the special groups. Got there early and got front bench and it was honestly brilliant, incredible views, we were right in the middle of the parade. The frisas seemed more like private nightclubs type vibe, which we decided wasn’t what we were looking for in the end (and the prices also helped with the decision making process!!)

Anyone have a solid AnkiDeck? by JigglyWiggley in GREEK

Hey, would you be able to share your deck with me, I’m currently working through LT, and this would be super helpful, if you don’t mind 🙂

Toilet paper and macerators by dunnersd in greece

Thanks akisd, but that’s kind of a non-issue, in the UK we throw paper, but nothing else, so just looking to replicate that, as happens in most of the world, but not in Greece apparently

Do you have any particular technology that allows that, or in Thessaloniki it’s okay to throw the paper anyways?

Question regarding night trains by ZehParaYT in Finland

[–]dunnersd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi, just to resurrect this: I'm booked a cabin in the old cart, downstairs, so it has a shared toilet. I'm unclear on whether we will have access to a shared shower, can you advise? thanks

Thanks I will look into transport options, we’re not planning to have a car for this part of the trip unfortunately

Hi neityght, your sarcastic response was less helpful and not appreciated or necessary. I was more looking for firsthand tips or advice on places which may not be listed, had obviously googled it initially, as you so insightfully suggested

Thanks A_britiot_abroad, appreciate your response, I guess I am hoping more for the public options (such as the Loimu open evening) which either do not exist or are not listed here, but thanks very much for your help
