Thx @Ricky what do you pay for 50Mb? What annoyed me was that they advertised 100/50 for €32/month om the spanish web but wanted €35 for only 25Mb in the urb :-( 

I'm perhaps spoiled from my swedish experience paying €29 for 250/100 Mb fiber with no interruption since I got it.

I got this answer from them (TeleCable) trough my builder.

"We are in the process of upgrading our customers speed free of charge, so if you have no 25Mbps it will increase to 50Mbps and 50Mbps to 100Mbps and 100Mbps to 200Mbps"

Worth to notice is that its not synchronous, the 25 is only 25 down and 10 up and so on...  But at least better then earlier with double speed

HI, I been looking around now for some time after fiber supplier in the urb.

On telecables web they did at first not seem to have any fiber offerings (I was looking at the english page) but when I switched to the spanish web they did have a fiber offer. http://www.grupotelecable...

....es/santapola/internet/

The price seems to be on pair with other operators (€32/month for 100/50 MB) in the area can anyone confirm that they have the same offer in La Marina urb? I have mailed them but got no answer :-(

Try Moller Internet, from torrevieja, they also cover the Urb and are a good solid family run company, with good customer service, and good prices, hope this is a help. Nev45.

We moved into EL Pinet Beach two weeks ago and signed up with Telecable. They arrived on time, installed neatly and we were up and running within a hour. We did have a little problem with the router, their help desk were very good and the router's power supply was swapped out within two hours. I was quite impressed. We get 100Mbps and it cost 25Euros per month. 

We used Steve Foster for our TV, he's a gem and I couldn't recommend him highly enough. Cheers Steve.

Well in the end I had no options, only Telecable supply fiber to our street. It has worked well but I pay €35 for 50/25MB, don't know why they are more expensive in the urb but they are. So other then cost level they have supplied I would say. If they lower the price to the same as yours (and competitors) around €25 for 100 I be happy.

Hi John, now you have two operators to chose from.

Telecable is the old one, that I have had now for some time. Works well but don't deliver as high speed as they claim. I pay for 300/300 and get 267/194, more then enough but still.

The alternative today is VegaFibra, have been 5€/ month less for the same speed. 

I tried to get 100/100 but non of the two above deliver less then 300/300.

If I was to get new today I would try VegaFibra. Both VegaFibra and Telecable have office in the urb (at least Vega is about to open).

Perhaps should add that I now pay 30€/month for the 300/300
