If you have internet banking the details of the mortgage and outstanding balance should come up. If not they should be sending you at least a  annual statement. Typically (depends on terms and conditions) a bank will levy a 0.25 percent charge of the outstanding balance for early repayment plus of course remaining balance.

I have a three bed apartment, induction hob, dishwasher, two fridge/freezers, central aircon, two TVs etc. and no problems. My supply is standard 5.7KW. What I would say is if you are sourcing your induction hob in Spain, which I did, it will be of a slightly lower power than one sourced in the UK. Typically they will supply a 3 ring hob here, versus  a 4 ring in the UK.

DO not go near 3 phase as the supply will be very costly to run.

Hope this helps

There is nothing odd going on here IMHO. I picked up car up from Seguro last Monday after two months parked in the baking sun. The rear tyres (car six months old) had lost 0.3 bar each. Tyres will lose pressure in heat of summer. I have excellent service from Seguro over the year. Always courteous and car always clean.

Agree with all previous posters recommendations. Been doing the winters away for quite a while now.

Insurance: LV are pretty good on car and home insurance with regard to absence.

While a neighbour keeps her eye on the mailbox, I now monitor everything remotely with crucially a Nest remote thermostat that keeps the house at minimum I have set at 16.5C when away. I can boost this as required and switch it up a few days before returning. I  can check the house temperature on my phone while away for added assurance.

For the water I have installed a Surestop switch in the kitchen so the neighbour can easily turn mains water on and off at the press of a button.

I have put  a cameras (Clever dog off EBAY) that alert any movement in the house and take videos.

I have also installed an intelligent lighting system that turns outside lights on at dusk etc. IKEA are doing these now so the price is coming down,

All of this is possible with help of the internet.

Just some suggestions

Un saludo

I queried this increase last year. I also posted on here and got some responses as to why this all changed in 2015.
