Just for clarification: There is a distinction between whether you are a MEU1, or MEU2 holder (yellow slip) or holder of an (MEU3) 3. Holders of a Registration Certificate (MEU1) or a Residence Card (MEU2) can apply for a Permanent Residence Card, given that they have resided in the Republic for an...

Hi Can I ask why people are changing to the new card now (which has a 10 year life) from MEU3 when theres nearly 3 years to do this(August 2026)? Holders of MEU documents (yellow slips) "We strongly recommend that you request the MUKW residence biometric card. Whilst MEU documents remain valid...

Trev, We are sending emails to the Government office in Nicosia asking for an interview at Paphos Immigration office and asking this same question of them. So far no reply. That's why we've posted here, to gain from someone else's experience but definitely not to quote from Paphos Life...... Hi the...

Caught the 645 from Polis to the new Karavella Station-which is now up and running- early days yet as not congested- maybe people are not yet aware of all the bus routes that are serviced from this location-site although all the bus stops on both sides of the building, have the bus numbers affixed t...

The comment above about the 615 buses not going down to the harbour is interesting. Thousands of tourists must take the bus between Coral Bay and the harbour (and the other way). Do they really expect people to walk from the harbour to TotK road and back? Or catch 2 buses? What a backward step, if ...

So we are talking about two different bus stations ,one on the tomb of the kings road , the other in the old town .? Where about is this bus station, the caravel,please , lived here for twenty years and never had cause to use it . The other bus station that is yet to open is depicted on the first p...

Just seen this about the 618 route- so it looks like this will start at the new Karavela station but will it still go down to the harbour???? - as there has been nothing indicated as to the end stop being amended, and still nothing about the 610, that I could find.. "FROM MONDAY 25/09/2023 THE ...

I'm reading these comments with interest as I live nearby. The station was almost ready to open and then everything stopped! The rumour that is circulating in the area is that a trial was done with a small number of buses only to find that the dimensions are wrong and buses can't safely pass each o...

Hi There I'm pretty sure that when I received my medical card and had forwarded all the forms etc to Nicosia, I had to register also with my G.P and then she had to "approve" the application on "her system" otherwise I believe the status with the GHS Beneficiary Management Depart...

Well we are nearly there 3 days away till the start of a another new month and a beautiful timeless song

a few years ago, I joined the queue at the main Larnaca Hellenic branch. Immediately in front of me, there was a couple where Monsieur was dressed in only a pair of short shorts, bright red beer belly hanging over them. To the bank's credit, an employee came over and politely asked him to leave. He...

When I was living in Brighton and a teenager- got a job in a trendy clothes shop- The owner used to do the same - but with shirts, wear them once- get his wife to iron them pop it back in the cellophane wrapper, complete with the collar stiffener and then bring it back on a Monday morning to the sho...

Of course it costs the shop to process the transaction, card terminals dont operate for free. 8-) I was referring to the fact that blatantly, he would not "accept " my debit card" as a means of payment - until I walked out of the shop :roll: I know it costs him and other business peo...

Accdrding to EU consumer laws, the store only has to give you a cash refund, if they can not fix or replace the item, If goods you bought anywhere in the EU turn out to be faulty or do not look or work as advertised, the seller must repair or replace them free of charge or give you a price reductio...

There is a difference between returning something because it doesn’t fit and for a defective product. If the product is defective, the policy may be different. If the size is incorrect - it’s Ok with me for a store not to give a cash refund as it would be a buyer’s error. You will know now for next...

Many many firms have restrictive terms and conditions. Sometimes they are on the receipt Hi Trev- all it has on the back of Jumbos receipts are the actual timetables for defective and non defective products- and the credit voucher has only one sentence in English saying: "Valid for today"...

:D Hi there thought I would share this piece of advice for those of you who visit "JUMOS" in the Mall in Paphos and may be unaware of their refund policy I purchased a shower head as mine was was knackered- and took the old one in to measure the hose aperture size so it would fit Unfortuna...
