    Do expats use a Mail Forwarding Service?
    What are the pro’s and con’s of the service?

    I don’t personally know anyone who does. We do all our bill-paying and communication online. Mail service in Ecuador is very spotty–we’ve received less than 10 pieces of mail in 2 1/2 years, mostly because we’ve advised everyone to not bother trying to send cards or packages. There is a service called Club Correo that allows you to order things and have them sent to a Miami address where they are forwarded to Ecuador. We’ve not used it because we return to the US often enough, but those that have say it is reliable, although pricey.

    Some expats in Cotacachi have a box at the post office, but most also do most transactions, etc. online, as Edd said. We’ve been living overseas for 12 years now and we do not see a need for snail mail. You’ll be surprised how you will simplify your life when you move overseas. And no more junk mail!
