Driving Licence Renewal – Response

I can’t agree with yesterdays letter re driving licence renewal. Everyone is obliged to have a medical from youngsters through to “oldies”, though the intervals vary with age . The reason Clinica Rincon deal with them is because they do the medical and complete the form online for you at the same time.

Services Available – Car Hire Question

I’ve got a feeling I know the answer to this, but….. We hired one of the tiniest (and tinniest) cars this week from Marbesol, and were charged for a full tank of petrol at 100€.

Now I don’t think its little tank would hold more than 40€ worth at a push.
My question is, if we take it back half full, do we get 50€ back?

Call me cynical! Feels a bit like  ***** to me!

 

 

Services Needed – Accountant

Can anyone recommend a good accountant in or near Nerja please?

Must speak English.
Please reply to Digamextra as may be useful to other people.
Thank you
Amanda

So all you do is remove those spaces before contacting a contributor.

Driving Licence Renewal

You don’t have to wait until you are 65, it can be exchanged at any age.
You, or a gestor on your behalf, have to exchange to licence at Traffico in Malaga. There is no other way. It is quite easy to do yourself.
You might need a medical which can be done at Clinica Rincon. In theory you don’t need one but Traffico will ask for one.
Once you have your licence it can be renewed at places like Clinica Rincon and they will do everything for you.
Cheers, Gerry

Recommendation – Hairdresser

Pelequeria Low Cost Tinte is a new hairdresser on Avda Andalucia in Torre del Mar.

Having paid 15 or 20 euros previously for cuts that were just okay, I decided to invest just 5 euros, and got not only good styling, but what I actually asked for! Take a picture with you, they don’t speak English, take a ticket when you go in and wait your turn.

I have waited longer when I’ve had an appointment at some places, both here and in the UK!

Residencias

(1)

Our experience of renewing residencia in Torre del Mar was quite different to Phil’s in Granada, local rules can apply so you need to check out at your local office.

In Torre del Mar

  1.  The initial five year residencia must be renewed
  2. The permanent one does not need to be renewed unless you change name or address
  3.  The proof of income and health cover are required only for new applications, not renewals.

R&MT

(2)

Despite what the Granada office may say there is no need to renew your registration (commonly referred to as a residencia) certificate

I have used my green A4 sized certificate to apply for a health card, renew my driving licence, transfer vehicle – all without any problem. Of course when the UK leaves the EU the situation will change and we will probably have to re apply for residency as Non EU citizens. There is some interesting information on the subject on http://www.janetanscombe.com/news/certificados-de-registro-green-certificates-are-permanent-and-do-not-need-to-be-renewed.html

 

Original Advice offered a Year Ago :-

After receiving conflicting information about the need to renew the residencia certificate I did some further research. At the time of issue I was told it was permanent and did not need to be renewed but since then have been told several times that in fact it needs to be renewed after 5 years. So I googled and found an article which appeared in an expat magazine that discussed this very topic. The reporter wrote to the relevant department and received the attached reply. As you can see – there is no requirement to renew your

“residencia ”

(although if you want the credit card sized one you can pay and queue outside the commisaria and obtain one voluntarily). The reporter suggested printing out the letter and carrying it with your

registration (residencia)

certificate as apparently police have occasionally also insisted that you renew or be fined! This only applies to those from EU countries.

Saludos

Michèle

Just to show what a minefield Spanish bureaucracy can sometimes be, we renewed our Residencias earlier this year and had a very different experience to Phil, published in Thursday’s Digame.  We had the old style photo cards and we realised they had expired. With the whole Brexit thing going on it prompted us to get these renewed.  Expecting to have to start again with all the associated paperwork required these days such as health insurance, bank statements etc, we employed a local lady, who deals with such things, to help us.  To our surprise and delight ‘they’ were happy to simply renew our residencias, (even though the originals had expired) with none of the extra paperwork.  We did all this at Torre del Mar National Police station and just had to turn up with the appropriate form, fee and a copy of our passports.  We were also told that these were now permanent and wouldn’t need to be renewed.  Maybe they’re stricter in Granada province!
If anybody needs the name of the lady who dealt with our paperwork, do get in touch.

Residencia renewal.

The information that was given to Phil and posted here yesterday was incorrect. The law is quite clear. There is no requirement to renew the Certificate Of Registration. However, after you have been resident for 5 years, you automatically become entitled to the permanent right of residency in Spain. This is an automatic right and it is not necessary to apply for a new certificate. However, if you wish to do so, you will be issued with an almost identical form/card which differs only by confirming your right of permanent residency.

The law specifically states that you do not have to again show evidence of financial means or health cover. Neither does the law state that certificates must be renewed after any period. It is, sadly, not uncommon for the functionaries in the office to be inadequately instructed on the rules and they frequently give out incorrect information.

Sometimes confusion arises from the fact that residency cards are still issued, but only to non-EU family members of an EU citizen. These cards do have to be renewed every 5 years.

The full wording of the relevant law is at

Recommendation – Riser Chair

I too struggled to get in and out of my armchair. I went to the shop (with the original cushion off my chair and the depth measurement) which sells foam, materials, seat cushions etc and is located near the car park and Shanghai Chinese restaurant in Torre del Mar. It is in the area which becomes the Thursday Market. The very nice man there showed me all different standards of foam and I chose material to complement my decor. He then sent me away for an hour to have a coffee. When I returned he had made me a lovely firm cushion complete with cover. The price was very reasonable and depends on the standard and depth of foam and cover material chosen. I think I paid about 30€. The cushion fits my chair perfectly and I no longer struggle in and out of my chair. Of course this simple solution may not be the answer for everyone but I thought it may be of interest generally.        Helene

Residencia

Referring to the query about residencia I think I can give the definitive answer.  Mine too was issued in 2011 as an A4 sheet with no expiry date.  After hearing that it may need renewal I contacted my abogado who advised that it needed to be renewed after 5 years.

I duly went along to the oficina de etranjeros in Granada with the necessary paperwork and was issued with the newer card version which shows ‘permanent residency’.  However, I asked the official who served me and she stated quite clearly that this too needs to be renewed every 5 years despite it not showing and expiry date.

Be advised that in contrast to my original registration 5 years ago, this time I had to produce certified bank statements to prove my income, a certificate from the health authority (not my health card) to prove my entitlement to Spanish health care (proof of private health insurance is the only other alternative), a new empadrionamento and proof (in the form of Spanish tax returns) that I do actually live here full time.

It was pointed out to me that a lack of an up to date residencia could affect the application for other official documents like a driving licence or health card if you don’t already have one.

I hope this helps – but please don’t delay.

Services Needed – Pool Grouting

Has anyone in Digameland had their mosaic tile pool re-grouted?

I am going to have to bite the bullet and get mine done before next summer.

I just wondered if anyone has information on whom to call to do it, and how much it may cost for a 7x3mx 1.5m pool.

That’s apart from emptying and refilling it of course.

I am located near Competa.

Thanks for any info.

Irene

Residencia Question

We have heard conflicting views on this subject and wondered if anyone with recent experience could clarify the situation.

My husband’s residencia was issued late 2011 in the form of an A4 size green sheet of paper- failing to renew on a  previous occasion led to a charge of non-resident’s tax based on the value of our property.

My residencia on the other hand, issued in 2013 is a credit-card size document which I assumed was everlasting-neither documents show an expiry date. Does anyone have any clear direction?

Any comments please to lynnegomm @ gmail.com or via Digame.

Help ! Trip to Morocco – Missing Contact Details

I had posted an ad for women to join me on a buying trip to Morocco. Much to my delight I got an unexpected email from a  woman living in La Herradura, which is where my new home is.

Unfortunately I have lost that email. I just booked my trip back to Spain and wanted to connect about meeting for tea/coffee.

Hopefully you are reading this and will reach out to  me again.

Amendment to – Interpreters in Spanish Hospitals

Spanish hospitals do not charge for the services of an interpreter – it is free.  The interpreters  themselves are volunteers (although it is possible to book their services on an individual basis, if you like to have the same interpreter for your appointments for example, for which the Junta set a flat fee).  I used to  volunteer at my local Centro de Salud until my own health issues got in the way

If you just turn up for a medical appointment and expect an interpreter to be available you may be disappointed – with so many (non Spanish speaking) foreigners living here these days there is a high demand.  You could arrange in advance for an interpreter to be available.  Alternatively take a Spanish speaking friend/family member with you – or better yet make the effort to learn the language so you can manage for yourself without moaning about others.

Recommendation – English Language Movies

Dear Digamist,

Just a quick thanks to Doug who places the English spoken Movie Shedule on DigameXtra.

After a few year of living here and still struggling with the Spanish language, I went to my first English movie experience in Velez-Malaga (Miss Peregrines home for Particular Children, great for the whole family). It was the Sunday Matinee (12pm)  followed by a lovely lunch…

But to our surprise we and one other couple were the only customers (entrance only 5 Euros). What a pity….. If we want the Spanish movies theaters to keep featuring English spoken movies I hope that more people will find there way there to enjoy a good movie matinee.

Lost-Found-Lost Dog Story    

ld01 ld-02

The night before last this dog wandered onto our property, heart pounding, and very hungry. We have been feeding her up. She is extremely affectionate and playful. The photos do not do her justice as she is extremely pretty. She is wearing a red plastic collar with little metal bones around. Her approximate weight is 50 kilos and with a bath her white hair would be snow white. She takes doggie treats very gently from my hand. She has no tics or fleas.

Could the owner or anyone who recognizes her please contact me at geraldine14 @ gmail.com or alternatively text or phone me on my Irish mobile which is 00353879186521.

Someone must be missing a beautiful docile pet. Thank you.

When we came home this evening, Saturday at 11.30 approx this beautiful dog was not here.

It is 4.00 AM and I am waiting on her return but sadly no show yet I need to know her owner has her back and that she is safe. If anyone has spotted her in the Algarobbo or surrounding area please, please let me know..

Thank you all those people who care

 

 

Services – Why pay for an interpreter at Carlos Haya Hospital or any other Spanish hospital?

There should be in every Spanish hospital notices indicating your rights in many languages.

Read the notices.

The first item on the list states that they have a duty (mostly from doctors) to tell you anything in your own native comprehensible language via an interpreter if needs be which must be free of charge, as the U.K. does this under European law.

Spanish hospitals will try and get round this by charging you and many are none the wiser hence saving the Spanish health service money.

Services Available – Amplitex 

amplitexThe company called Aplitex is still very much in business, I called them a couple of days ago to come again this year to spray my trees, but they have moved and I called them on a mobile number 625 039 971.  This is the number for Rafael and he speaks English.   I would recommend them for anyone who has trees which are too big or difficult to reach yourself.  They will come and give a quote first so no surprises.  About now is the time to spray before the nests start.   If your trees are small enough to spray yourself the product in the photo can be bought in Viveros Amberes Torrox  Costa garden centre (no doubt in others too).  This is the same product used by Aplitex and is  very effective.  Safe for pets etc.

Services Available – Facebook Query

Am I the only person here that does not have (and does not want) a Facebook account and therefore cannot access information by businesses that use it instead of having a website?

I thought that there was a ‘public’ setting when setting up Facebook whereby people that are not registered users can still view the page?

Perhaps this is no longer the case.

I really do not want to be on Facebook so that means I cannot view the businesses that have a link to their Facebook page on Digame.

Barbara W.

( Our resident tech adviser responds: FB still has the  “Public” setting. However, this is often set by default to “Friends” by FB to encourage non-FB Users to join. Causal FB users often do not notice this feature and leave the default. This, among other annoyances like “Suggested Pages” and false friend requests, explains the gaining popularity of individual websites. Be sure to explain this to businesses you patronize.)

Recommendation – Gardening Work

I would like to endorse this post which appeared on 24th September:

“I’d like to highly recommend a good Spanish friend who can carry out all aspects of gardening and campo work. From clearing, strimming, spraying, tree felling & pruning and fruit harvesting.  He has all professional equipment, including strimmers and chainsaws etc, and is an incredibly hard worker at excellent rates.  To contact him direct (Spanish speaking only), call Samuel on 628 441 205 or call/whatsapp Phil (english) on 657 149 712 or emailphillymc @ fastmail.fm

Samuel and his companion Jaime have just spent a day working very hard to cut, prune and clear our very large and overgrown garden.  They were charming, willing and very hardworking.  A pleasure to do business with.  Highly recommended.

DoctorLaptop Alert! Windows Live Mail 2012 Now Obsolete!

Using Windows Live Mail 2012 with Outlook.com? No more. Time to update your email application!

From MS Office Support: To provide you an email experience with enhanced performance, security and reliability, the new Outlook.com has been built upon our latest Office 365 infrastructure. Because the Windows Live Mail 2012 email application doesn’t support the protocols used by this new infrastructure, you will no longer be able to send or receive Outlook.com email from Windows Live Mail 2012. If you currently use Windows Live Mail 2012 to connect to Outlook.com, we recommend that you switch to the Mail app on Windows 8.1/10. THIS DOES NOT WORK WITH WINDOWS 7! For Win 7 users, Microsoft suggests you upgrade to Win 10 as a solution, a non-solution for many Win 7 users who can not upgrade due to hardware limitations.

Q. What if I am using Windows 7 and do not wish to, or are unable to, upgrade to use the Mail app?

A. If you do not wish to upgrade, you can access your account directly by signing in via a web browser or you can take advantage of a free one-year subscription for Office 365 Personal and use Outlook 2016 to connect to your account. This Office 365 subscription includes the Outlook 2016 email application as well as other productivity applications such as Word, PowerPoint and Excel. It works on Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1 and Windows 10.

Read full details here: https://blogs.office.com/2016/05/05/using-windows-live-mail-2012-with-outlook-com-time-to-update-your-email-application/

Another article explains alternatives available for accessing your @outlook.com, @hotmail.com, @live.com or @msn.com account once the Windows Live Mail 2012 email application stops connecting to these email accounts.
