    What type of snake?

    I told no-one about the snake (apart from everyone on DR1!). I had no intention of killing it and it has now gone from where it was. I admit I now check where I tread a bit more carefully now, and look up more often!

    Anyone know what type of snake this is? I have only seen much smaller black snakes here.

    Delancer becoming too slow to use

    Delancerguy, we have DeLancer cable with unlimited data and are generally happy with it. I did consider changing to a faster plan with a data cap, but I have no idea how much data we use monthly. Would DeLancer have a record of this for previous months, or is there any way of monitoring this in...

    Mailing Letter - Debit Card

    I use EPS for parcels from the US, and had heard using EPS’s letter service from the US was very slow, so last time I needed to receive a letter (not a debit card) from the UK I had a friend put it in a small parcel and send it to the EPS parcel address in Miami and it arrived promptly. Maybe...

    I believe the $6,970 includes the $700 annual registration fee.

    Edenorte is a disaster

    I thought it was not working for a long time, until I turned off my VPN. Works for me with Claro or DeLancer. WhatsApp can also be used to enquire about money owed, pay etc, but a card needs to have been registered first to pay.

    why can't we post photos in our posts?

    This is what I see - https://photos.app.goo.gl/g9HqZ9QoxiZ8syUN9. Copy and paste doesn't work either.

    Edenorte Seems to be Offline

    I contacted Edenorte by WhatsApp today to say I had not been able to access their Oficina Virtual for several weeks and did they know when it would be available again. Their reply was "No. Estamos presentando inconveniente en nuestros canales de pago" which translated means they are having...

    iPhone fans....forget your upgrade to 14 in the DR

    I believe it is only in the US the iPhone will be sold without a SIM tray. In Europe there will be a SIM tray - the same as the iPhone X. I am guessing it will be sold with a SIM tray in the DR.

    Antigen Test: Santiago

    I need an antigen test to transit through the US. I will be in Santiago the day before I leave so looking for recommendations of where to go. Ideally somewhere reliable where there is unlikely to be a queue and I get the result within an hour. If it is near to PUCMM even better. Thanks. Adrian

    All Terrain Tires. Buy here or ship from USA?

    I need to replace the All Terrain tires for my truck. 265/65 R17. In the past I have always ended up buying them from David's in Sosua. Not much choice, although sometimes he has got them from elsewhere, but easy. Last week David's did not have any so wondering if anyone can suggest somewhere...

    Does the UK Issues NHS Covid Pass in the DR?

    I use my UK NHS Covid pass on my phone and have never had a problem. In most places you could probably show anything on your phone and they would accept it!

    Hotel near Las Americas airport

    I am landing at Las Americas airport at 11pm and looking for a hotel nearby until someone picks me up the next morning. I don't need anything fancy, just somewhere clean and safe where I can check in sometime around midnight. I think the Hampton by Hilton might be my only option but wondering if...

    BREAKING NEWS : Republica Dominicana to remain on the red list for UK travellers.

    Mari Yes. There are two criteria that need to be fulfilled. The vaccine needs to be an approved vaccine AND the vaccine certificate needs to be accepted in the UK. For example, if you have had the Pfizer vaccine in the DR, at the moment on entry to the UK you would need to follow the rules for...
