Hi. Does anyone have a current email address for accounts at Enel please? They've sent me a cheque for a refund, whilst leaving a bill unpaid - why didn't they just credit my account...?!! TIA.

Hi! Does anyone know where drinks cartons (fruit juice, milk, wine, etc.) can be recycled, particularly in the Lucca/Bagni di Lucca area? Back in the UK, they can't (I think) be recycled in Norfolk, but can in Essex, so it seems to vary from cou

Hi. Does anyone have any further info about this? Adri, what did you buy in the end?I too have been happily using 3's '3 like home' service for the last couple of years and will sadly have to make new arrangements during our next trip to Italy, which will hopefully within the next month or so. Unfortunately, I really need good reliable access for emails, but ideally only with a PAYG plan. Does anyone have any further recommendations?Thanks!
Sorry, I've not had a chance to post again until now, and obvoiusly an interesting debate has continued since my last post! Just to confirm, I know I have to pay ICI - it has never been my aim to try to 'get out' of paying it - I just wanted to ensure that I wasn't paying too much! I have taken the 'better safe than sorry' approach, and I have now paid the full amount using the Aliquota Ordinaria.Thanks again to everyone who replied to my question.
Thanks Gala! Hope you're well.I don't seem to be having much luck this morning! I've just tried to pay online at http://equitaliasestri.pagonet.it/Pagonet/bollettino_versamento.asp but it only seems to be allowing a limited number of provinces. Oh well, looks like it's another trip into town for us...!Thanks all for your replies.
Ram, thank you. Perhaps I would just be better off using last years figures after all.
Thanks for your reply Alan H. Last years calculation (made by our estate agent) used the Aliquota ordinaria figure I think. This is another reason why I am confused. Maybe we have been paying too much in previous years?
Okay, I'm still confiused! This is the first year we are doing our own ICI calculation (late, I know!) and, whilst I could just use last years figure, I would really like to understand what I'm doing. Our house was purchased as a holiday home/A4 but it is our only property in Italy. We are not residents, and therefore I believe we should be paying ICI. My confusion is regarding Aliquota ordinaria and Aliquota abitazione principale on the ICI bill. I have been using the Expats In Italy calculator, and the instructions suggest that Aliquota abitazione principale (and no Detrazione abitazione principale) should be used if the property is your only one in Italy. Is this true or is it only if it is your offiicial residence?My apologises if this is a stupid question, but I would be very grateful for clarification. Thank you!
