  1. We have OOma and tried it and wouldn't work. I am trying to get a direct answer from technical support/ We can use capitol one 360 as our main source of getting monies from the United state at our ATM. No issue there.
  2. Get A VPN like Express VPN wher you can choose from many sites and you wont be having differnt IP adresses. You can choose one address based on the state and make it static as in every time you log in it will show the same IP address. I have also begun to have problems with Capitol one. I have capitol one 360 checking Used to send verification codes through my email and talked to customer service and they said they were switching everyone over to text message or voice message a security code. They were true to their word. Even companies like ATT are using double verification to pay one bills . Issue for me was my wife was out of country with the cell phone with the number on fille and many sites that use double verification would only send and SMS to that phone number
  3. I have heard from friends in Puerto Vallarta that they really have had not one issue with their claims. My wife has it.
  4. We purchased a Berkey water filter for our drinking water and shower heads. Best one can buy. The locally sold home water filters do not take out fluoride nor arsenic nor pesticides and volatile organic chemicals and other compounds. I asked a company that installs whole house filters for the last water test they did on their system. All I got back was a test for certain bacteria and thats it. I asked about all the other tests they should do. They said too expensive and I can get the unit installed and do them myself and do I think Ciello and Bonafanti test their water. After hearing that wonderful sales pitch I went right to Amazon and ordered a big Berkey. Takes care of all of our drinking needs and the shower filters for the rest of our needs . Cant beat it. https://www.berkeywater.com/
  5. Look into Vumi expat insurance. The insurance office across from quality care sells it. pretty darn good and everything is explained on the website. Look at the bronze policy and what it offers.
  6. so when I see a souped up camaro or mustang etc on 54d autopista doing 200km+ an hour in could be a federal cop?
  7. What kind of Guns can you have in your home according to the new law? https://themazatlanpost.com/2019/03/28/mexico-what-kind-of-guns-can-you-have-in-your-home-according-to-the-new-law/
  8. Which funeral homes are geared to the expat community and approx what would a prepaid plan cost? Can one negotiate?
  9. correct. I am on jersey 2 and it wont work. Because of all my banking I have stayed on Jersey 2 because of static IP address. I fear the moving to 3 to watch Prime and then moving back would change my IP address of jersey 2 and the banks would shut me down in a NY minute
  10. Dr. Youcha is the only one Lakeside as far as we know with a cedula and he had been doing this work for 40 years . He is a doctor. Went to chiropractic school at Northwestern University and is the 60th certified chiropractor in Mexico. Teaches special classes in Mexico City and other Latin American countries . He has an associate, Roberto who I hear is also very good and also someone who comes in to do acupuncture. Dr. Youcha is the real deal. We have been to quite a few in the states and My wife's first visit was pretty amazing considering she was walking real straight with no pain after her first visit. Initial visit for my wife was 1750 pesos. Each session afterwards has been 750.
  11. Yesterday I logged in and the verification is by text only on our accounts. Called them and they said they are switching everyone. I wonder what caused that to happen. ALL my other banks give me a choice.
  12. Express VPN has the option of having a static IP address.
  13. I have no issues whatsoever with getting email verification from capital one. What I do know if you set it up notifications from the beginning it can get real weird. we have 2 accounts with email verification. One has a choice of 2. The other has a choice of one and they were setup at the same time. I use a VPN with a static IP address which is real helpful. I also noticed that for me at least the capitol one website works far better than with Firefox than with chrome.
  14. We also went there when it first opened and the food was quite good but minimal in quantity. They were still revising their menu. The space is beautiful but it felt like we were eating in too big a space . My wife called it 1/2 a basketball court. The owner and waiter were very cordial and they knew their stuff. My concern is that it may not survive unless they add more items more conducive to what expats want. . Apparently they and the other businesses that are in that massive space from what I can gather are partners in it. We may try it again.
  15. We have purchased red and mixed quinoa and black quinoa on the way back from Costco at Fresko supermarket a few miles away. You will see it on the way back to the macrolibramiento on the right hand side.
  16. I like their swedish meatballs. Wonder if they will have food service
  17. Physical. My bank in the states charges no conversion rate.
  18. Does anyone know of the best place/bank to get the best rates on converting dollars to pesos. Thank you kindly.
  19. I posted above that the site that lists the website for quality care itself is not working and I warned people not to go there. Their website on the page you posted is. www.qcdoctors.org I highly recommend no one go to it becuase it is corrupted and my firewall (Norton) stopped an attack from that website and instead as I advised, send an email requesting info like I did to the email address posted on the page you posted. Phone / Teléfono: 01 (376) 7661870 E-mail: qcdoctors@gmail.com
  20. The website listed is not online . I wouldn't go to it. My firewall blocked an attack. I sent an email on asking them for specifics. Here is the only I could find.... http://www.chapala.com/quality-care.html
  21. My comment will make it more expensive? I would think that the market makes the rules and if all the hospitals that are being planned to open do actually open there will be competition unless there is collusion. I read a post on one board from a local doctor who asked if he should by an Audi A7. Apparently business must be very good at the prices you speak of. I cant afford an audi A7. I do compare things with my own country just as you did when you first arrived. I guess its a habit to think in terms of dollars since i Have been dealing with that form of currency for 55 years. I promise I will never do it again. Scouts honor. Wouldn't want my post to raise prices for all Lakeside residents. I didn't know all the lakeside doctors read these posts. If they are all I can say to them is that your prices for medical services are too high. Hope that helps.
  22. Thats it? and for a specialist? The parking lot fee at my doctor's office at the University of Penn was higher since they tell you to show up at least 45 minutes early to fill out reams of paperwork including legal documents that you wont sue them and then you get to wait in the small doctors room for another hour . So the time spent is close to 3 hours and your next appointment is usually available maybe in 3 months if you are lucky and here I hear they will give you their whatsapp number and even come to your home at night and if necessary drive you to the GDl hospital themselves if its an emergency. An Ambulance ride where I used to live was approx 4,000 dollars and not covered by insurance. The system is crashing in the states. Thank you very much for providing me that info. Another person told me the same thing and I thought I must have done the conversion wrong or the other individual left off a zero. And thank you Mrs. Rupert For the endorsement of Quality care.
  23. And Neither Have I since in the states there is a retail price and an insurance reimbursement price which I never see unless insurance wont cover it and I am stuck with a massive bill. Thank you for a well crafted response. I always thought that I could take it with me. . The rules in Mexico must be different but as you can see over my name I am a newbie and I guess you don't like newbie questions but thanks for taking the time to answer me. I don't take answers like that personally, however may I suggest that many newbies who do post may have questions that seem ridiculous but we have no reference. Have a great day. Off to the bank to close the account where I have monies to take with me when my time is up on this planet.
