Life / Why is Orange Poland such a crappy / expensive network? [53]

If I hadn't been Orange customer until recently (there was no competition around, fortunately there is now) and if I hadn't been forced to deal with extremely lousy Orange's DSL at work I could even believe you.

According to UKE's "raport o stanie rynku telekomunikacyjnego" PTC (T-Mobile / Heyah) has more customers. Orange is second. They are the only network that still sells simlocked phones. Very customer "friendly" of them, I guess that and lousy competition when it comes to Internet access outside big cities can explain why they are (still) second.

Orange is infamous for their extremely bad services and Wołczkowo is outside city proper, so unfortunately this was to be expected.
You are using 3G/LTE, right? Get 5 zł starter cards from every single company and test them all before signing a contract.
Don't know about Skynet, never used them. Another local ISP you might check is Espol, they got wimax and LTE services and you should be in range.

Life / Electric cigarette - am I allowed to smoke in restaurants, bars etc. in Poland? e-juice in Szczecin [6]

Recently Szczecin's local government has forbidden to vape in public transport (and public transport stops).
You can vape at restaurants, bars etc., but its perceived as rude by many people. I go outside every time.
There are plenty physical stores (you can even buy e-liquid at every Żabka corner store these days) but it's much cheaper to buy it online. I buy mine from e-dym.pl or peleon.pl, both have great prices and shipping times. If you really need physical store there I recommend Cigger, they are at Bogusława street and at CH Ster shopping mall.

Travel / Transport in Stargard Szczecinski for wedding [4]

Are you landing in Szczecin-Goleniów (SZZ)?
As far as I know there are is no direct transport from the airport to Stargard. So you I guess the simpliest way to do it is to go from the airport to Szczecin and then to Stargard.

There are trains and buses from Goleniów to Szczecin:
interglobus.pl/rozklad-jazdy-goleniow-lotnisko.html

There are frequent trains from Szczecin to Stargard:
rozklad-pkp.pl/en

(station names: Szczecin Główny, Stargard Szczeciński)

I guess hotel in Stargard will be glad to help you with transport from the venue and back. If not, check local Taxi companies:
