    Wonder what benefits they would get under the Greek system though as a lot of countries do not have an equivalent of DLA - we are very lucky to have such a thing in the UK.

    Also the OP mentions about the winter payment - some people we know have moved out to Greece but still received the payment - Madness! They were very happy with the extra but of money to spend.

    My husband is not an OP thankyou.

    We dont have a nice villa we are renting a small apartment which is cheaper than our council house in the uk.:mad:

    Well then, what do you need extra benefits for if it's cheaper than in the UK?

    Incidentally, is it permitted to continue to occupy a council house in the UK if you have relocated permanently abroad?
