Just had a call from this number - didn't answer as I was busy doing something else anyway, and checked the number. 0046-76289335. Thanks for highlighting this.

After days of repeated calls from Vodafone (Greek version), all of which I have ignored or blocked, having checked the number, I have just received a call from a Uk mobile, which I answered. Rapid Greek and call cut when I asked, in Greek, if the caller spoke English. Caller id; Vodafone again. Anot...

... had to sign the declaration, which showed that we live here, and have no other insurance... Interesting. The declaration I and my friends signed, in Greek, didn't mention that we lived here, simply that we didn't have other insurance and would inform them if we did. I did try to point out that ...

We renewed ours at the IKA office in Sitia this morning. Produced passports and tax clearance certificate, and had to sign the declaration, which showed that we live here, and have no other insurance, and that was it. The declaration was in English, so clear enough - the first copy I was given was i...

On consideration, surely the smart move is to forget about actually submitting your declaration until the deadline for Greek residents has passed. (Assuming you are non-resident for tax purposes). The office will then only be dealing with non-residents. By definition, there will be a lot fewer of t...

Our local KEP handled this very smoothly this morning. The one catch was that we hadn't checked on the correct size for the photos and our spares from a UK passport application were too small. Easily solved. They also confirmed that we can pay the fee online. Do you know what size they should be ? ...
