Boiler service IS a must. I live in this house, okay it's quite big, and the house age is 58 years old. And when we bought this house, the heating is a warm air system, we carried on having the same heating system. The boiler we have is quite an old one, almost the same age of this house. We live in this house for 25 years. We have the boiler service yearly and the boiler is still working perfect. So people should not avoid not having it service even they think their boiler is fairly new. Imagine the dust that collected around the fan inside. It's just like car, computer, a year can have a dust bunny living inside. Just my 2 pennies worth.
Would you suggest to buy a brand new car or an used car ( for how many years)? We are new drivers in UK but having driver license for more than 10 years in HK.
If compare shopping in supermarket which definitely cheaper than in HK, but don't forget all the rest ie TV licence fee, water, electrical n gas bill, council tax etc. The killing cos to of transportation if u only got one car in n UK, also if it do no to owe a house, u will be okay if u earn the same amount as in HK after tax, if not then God bless you la.
Self cooking average 6-8X saving compare outing serve food due to heavy labor cost. Always look for smaller room/hse to make gas charges saving for room warming or water boiler.. Locals mostly using public transp and smaller cap vehicle. For weekend touring travel
Are you both working ? if both are working , no problem. But if only one person work :( I have been living in Zone 3 Central London for 15 yrs .A family of 4 need around £2000 per month .
There is a grammar school in Bury but its really an independent fee school, heard its not bad though. There is good area and bad area in Bury, I know this sounds cliche but for this kind of off the city older town, you will need to pick your area. Also another point to consider is, if you are going to work in Manchester, it's going to take sometimes for the travel.
Betty u are amazing!!.. just wanted to ask is it doable DIY or need a plumber to put own disher washer in.. it will share same pipes as the washing machine so located pretty much next to it almost. Or it's a plumber job.. hubby plumbed in the washing machine. But I'm not sure about wether need pro for dishwasher. Thanks in advance.
Does it include grocery items when you mentioned supermarket expenses (i.e not just food, but grocery like shampoo/ cleaning detergent/ laundry soap etc etc). Tks a lot!
It's cheaper in Manchester! Then living down south! Kids costs are cheaper as not many extracurricular activities. School uniforms are much more expensive for secondary schools in UK! Secondary schools have school trips abroad that are very expensive. Bus services to school can be very expensive!
Thanks for your support. I guess we are on the cheap side for cars, we are not big car ppl and really suggest to go cheap first when you start life here.
i am relocating to Manchester soon. Lots of things I need to know and learn! Your youtube looks perfect to watch. Would be more appreciated to be spoken in English.
You hasn’t talk about NHS, unless you are holding a British citizenship, otherwise for those with BNO will have to pay a fee upfront. And also if you live within London areas, cost will be higher too.
Rent for a 2 beds in Manchester, terrace house low end around about £600, or a semi in a better area about £800-900. Remind you this is very ballpark 🤔
夫妻兩個人暫時冇小朋友，係倫敦Zone 5 租屋住兩房，揸Golf GTi，所有使費加加埋埋，鬆動啲嘅話，預2500-2800磅一個月啦⋯⋯
老實講，係度已經11個月，我哋都預作喺英國搵唔到咩高收入嘅工做啦，暫時唯有靠香港有層樓收租，加埋之前儲落嘅小小錢，慢慢捱下啦⋯⋯等遲D習慣佐呢度，睇下邊度適合居住，再賣埋香港間屋，揀嘅城市買樓住落去⋯⋯港人來英國最好睇定D再買樓，太早買佐住落先發覺，果度周邊環境唔係好適合，再換就好麻煩。最好用一年時間去習慣。
香港啲樓係咁俾人唱淡 你唔大減價嘅話無一年都未必賣得出。。。係英國點睇香港間屋？好驚租倒俾租霸 有咩建議？🙏🙏🙏
生活開支家家唔同，而且將英国同香港的生活洗費作比較係不切实際。我建議將英國的入息与家庭洗費作比較。如果你的入息係高過洗費，good on you. 如果洗費高過入息，你就要計吓已有的積蓄可以維持幾耐嘞。到積蓄用完之後点算?
Alex & Betty，好多謝你地！唔知有幾多個UA-camr可以做到賺到錢，大多都係本住無私分享俾其他人，特別係現在的非常時期，大量香港人都好無助咁就要過去英國，幸好有你地資訊幫忙，再次感謝，辛苦唒！
好似我爸爸媽媽上一代嚟英國啲華人英文都唔識，做樣樣嘢都比較難，以前都係互相提醒互相幫忙。咁而家到我呢一代，叫做喺香港同英國都生活過，比較明白香港人嚟呢面生活將會有啲咩事情要面對，咁咪當同大家傾吓計，share吓囉。而且而家又有youtube又有FB，要分享呢啲資訊比以前容易好多啦。

Totally agree, and this safes your family from icy cold night if the boiler breaks down. I think your 2 pennies can save thousands.
你們好,我住Newcastle upon Tyne. 去Market 買疏菜水果平好多.Supermarket 買成隻鳼較平,用水如果不太多,可选meter 用幾多計幾多,如果多可以一間屋为單位.Boiler 可選用全年保用,包舊換新, 水喉Central Heating. 各种燕梳最好每年都去不同公司Quote 價.

在英国不计吃和住，就council tax和电、水、煤费£600，如果吃中超市更贵，一块豆付要十五元左右，一细盒青菜也要二十几元，只有吃肉吃鸡会便点，出街吃更贵，电视费（无论你睇与不睇，只要有手机可上网）一千几十元一年。
過去英國就是鬼旦面包意粉免治肉喇， 人地食乜你食乜咪得
唐人街的自助餐很平，時不時去吃一次思鄉
走咗就咪思鄉，往新的生活走。
i think public transportation is major part of the expense in UK, e.g the train cost is much higher than in HK
True! Public transport is quite exp here and the schedule is not reliable. I think its important to know how to drive here.

How about housing costs, the high personal income tax etc..?
Depends on what area you live in and house price and the salary you have.☺️ income tax rates are 20%, 40% 45% deepening on your income!
好可惜你漏咗講買屋或租屋的洗費.如果租屋三房單位最普週起碼£800.加埋每月你所講約£1600.起每月要2400開支.徐非賣咗HK間屋有錢在UK現錢買屋.如果不是的話請問你可否搵到份工.要每月有£2600才能平行你每月要俾國民保險及入息稅.
agree...
Does it include grocery items when you mentioned supermarket expenses (i.e not just food, but grocery like shampoo/ cleaning detergent/ laundry soap etc etc). Tks a lot!
Yes it does these things in U.K. are very cheap.☺️
It's cheaper in Manchester! Then living down south!
Kids costs are cheaper as not many extracurricular activities. School uniforms are much more expensive for secondary schools in UK! Secondary schools have school trips abroad that are very expensive. Bus services to school can be very expensive!
Agree! Education itself is not too education, but the extra things do build up when the kids getting older, not to mention University fees later on😱😱😱
英國煤氣比法國平好多，我們三人家庭一年煤氣費約2600歐元（煮菜 暖氣）電800欧元 水360歐元 地稅約1200欧元 近年取消了居住税400歐元。好似在法國 買菜比英國貴一點點。

任何的統計分析，最重是先說明分析對像的條件及背景，否則便欠缺作用！！？？
他們提出的消費數字約一萬八千多磅，祗涉及四口子家庭，並無講述他們已是入了藉，起碼有屋有醫療服務報的新移民，所以對打算執本BNO過去5＋1的港人就小心，唔計以上兩項的高費用，還須應付無法預計的入藉律師及手續費！！？若英文唔好兼唔識人，我想一家起碼要化五六萬磅一年，若受唔到六年啞忍奴役，最後無僱主推薦，兼錢又花盡，青春賣盡，最終結果是絕不樂觀！！！我認為無論有什麼打算，事前須聽多啲悲觀的一面，因為凡說樂觀想法的人，將來是一定不會出現的！
How about home insurance, content insurance?? Also do you get your water and sewerage bill from the same company?

日本就有NHK收費，等同BBC收費，不過，我們都不理會他們，一元也不用付，因為日本保障住屋私隱，我們不開門，他們無法入來，就不能收了。（當地人教的。哈哈！）但老實說，很少開電視，都是看網上的呢！
住落就知很多費用會慢慢浮現的了。
好奇問問，你們在英國，有沒有受到不公平對待﹖因為網上簡中聽到對華人不公的事情呢。
You hasn’t talk about NHS, unless you are holding a British citizenship, otherwise for those with BNO will have to pay a fee upfront. And also if you live within London areas, cost will be higher too.
你們住的地方是天上掉下來的嗎？這麼大的數居然吾計？？？
Water bill is £60 per month. It seems excessively high! Could it be every six months?
HK water bill is very cheap compared to UK, the price is every month depending on your usage. ☺️

請問電飯煲可以寄飛機倉嗎？
還是要跟身上機，過X光機檢查呢？
我睇英政府BNO網頁，話生活費係每個大人大約2千磅一個月（未計rental)。高過你哋計嘅幾多（你哋係19k磅一年，兩大兩小）。英政府BNO網頁的2k per adult per month係咪計得太多了？（我想做個預算，謝謝🙏🏻。）
2,000磅係6個月
