If you ring them from abroad will they switch it back on? Just thinking that even if I tell them I'm going to be working abroad that they might miss the note and still switch it off.

to be honest with you, youre not going to use anywhere near the amount of stuff that you will take. youre in your uniform about 90% of the time, and like other people have said its only greece and spain not the outback so there will be places to buy most things. you just need to take stuff that you know you cant get over there, for example a particular make up that you like, a tip though if you use things like pro plus these can be very very expensive over there.
as far as baggage allowance is concerned with olympic you get your starter pack and information and it tells you in there how much you can take. i really wouldnt worry about it yet, one thing i would suggest taking though is a big money bag with different compartments that way you can organise your liquidation money properly because if you lose any of it it comes out of your wages, trust me its not nice. |

its ok, it just annoys me when people chat on here giving wrong information because then people might take stuff that they didnt need or get charge loads at the airport or something.
