Beware TELEDESINFESTAÇAO

We had an infestation of cockroaches and as this company offered the quickest response we accepted their quote of € 140. They arrived on time and spent 20 minutes spraying drains and internal pipework (i.e equivalent to € 420 per hour !). However the problem was not completely solved so we asked for...

Re: Mobility scooter hire

Hi Dave,
I would recommend www.algarvemobility.com based in Lagos but will deliver to CVO for €15. Charge is € 70 per week.
There are other suppliers but more expensive.
Let us know when you are over.

Re: Premier FX - MOST URGENT

Fantastic news today that those who thought they had lost all their money in this scam are finally to get their money back.

The F.C.A. have shown they have teeth by fining Barcays £ 783K and making them repay over £ 10 million for what amounts to negligence in not recognising the scam.
