Exercise Ramstein Flag 30/9 to 11/10/24

[cbyman]

Hello
Had trouble paying with Lloyds. Required :
Bank address
Payee and address
Swift or BIC number/code

I have responded to the email requesting payment and await a reply.

[JorgeGuardia]

Hi,
I've had no problem making the payment, all the details you need can be extracted either from the IBAN number or from the bank name they provide at the email, along with the payee (the Wing name)

[SpilsbyPete]

So it's just not me

When the details emerge ,another trip to the local bank
I say local,12 miles there and 12 miles back
So 48 miles plus parking
How much will that cost me when the Gov starts pay per mile

BTW,Did anyone get a confirmation back from the British Embassy

Pete

[kevrockjockuk01]

no issues paying 30 seconds max. All sorted

[cbyman]

Hello
Has anyone been able to pay through their bank rather than online banking.
Thanks

[SpilsbyPete]

I tried to pay at nationwide today
They also want the details that Barclays wanted
So It's going nowhere...
cbyman
Did we get any feedback from them about Swift or BIC Codes

Thanks

[Thunder]

What details for the payment do you have?

[SpilsbyPete]

On the E-mail is just the account name Bank of Greece with a IBAN No
and a request to use the customer 117 Combat Wing

Barclays and Nationwide have asked me for more details
See Above for details

Pete

[Thunder]

Did they give you an IBAN number?

[SpilsbyPete]

Yes

[kevrockjockuk01]

just download something like Wise , use it to pay and its sorted less drama

[slogen51]

I just used to the Barclays app - no problems - the IBAN fetched the bank details

Iban: GR7201011400000002323271142

BIC BNGRGRAAXXX

Bank of Greece
Ag. ANDREOU AND KOLOKOTRONI PATRA 261 10

Payee ( I don't think this is used - for the tiger meet at Andravida I just put tiger meet I think?)
117 Combat Wing

The payment reference is free text - i put my name in

The one minor issue using the app is that you don't get a receipt so I had my on-line bank statement but I don't think they checked

[Phil]

On holiday in Greece and might get chance to do some low level photography during Ramstein Flag. Would someone be able to point me to where I need to go - village/coordinates Have searched but can’t find anything definitive. TIA

[Thunder]

Whereabouts in Greece are you holidaying, quite a big country? Send me your mobile number through PM and i’ll whatsapp you locations

[SpilsbyPete]

Your a star,again
Thanks for info and it worked
Barclays got there act together

No changes to the listing on Scramble SIS
I heard a rumour and we hear a lot of rumours
USMC AV-8's
Somehow I don't think so

Pete

[Thunder]

never say never, the USS Wasp was operating in the Ionian Sea beginning of this week. Although if taking part, it’s more than likely be off the ‘ship’.

[PSYCHO]

6 Spanish Typhoons due into Andravida today with C295/A400 support. They may or may not be connected with this exercise, and are not on Scrambles SIS list

[pako-2008]

French Rafales, Swedish Gripens and Polish F16s have been seen around the low fly this week and also a Canadian A310 has been operating off the coast. Hungarian Gripens, Italian Typhoons, Portuguese F16s and USAF F35s have arrived at their operating bases. Not seen much else but others (as above) are expected to arrive today…. Turkish have cancelled

[Manicone18]

Not sure if connected - on holiday Kefalonia - seen 4x F35s yesterday and two un-identified flying low level along coast towards area E3 and cc150 operating.

From checking airbase locations and proximity to Kefalona suspect answer is yes.

[slogen51]

Booked my flights for the spotters day on the 8/10

Hope the weather holds up
