Hi everyone , my husband and I have just purchased a property in la zenia ; we have been here many times on holiday and his father has bought and sold property there for 10 years but we still don’t know the little things ‘ so in order to keep some teenagers happy we gotta get WiFi / English tv / sports ,!,, also what does everyone think about conforma furniture store in the boulevard it doesn’t get great reviews and I would like to update some furniture in the house without traveling too far 

Any help would be great

Depending on your location La Zenia can be a black spot for Internet reception so be very careful about IPTV, it is not all it is cracked up to be or what an installer might claim. You need a strong and stable internet connection otherwise your TV picture will freeze and you will loose channels at times. We were taken in, got no refund from our installer and had to look around for other options and got Mike at Satmart Installations ( www.satellitetvtorrevieja.com ) to install a 1.4 metre dish. We now have Freesat which gives all the usual British channels but no premium sports channels but at least we now have TV we can view and the plus side is I have to go to the pub to watch the football. Not sure if he covers your area but contact him for a free price quotation and what you get for your money.

Hi Pete, I ruled out Fibre Optic as it is limited in La Zenia, certainly not available beachside of the N332 ans in many areas limited to larger Urbanisations, but maybe worth enquiring about .

Hi . We recently bought i the area. We've bought some furniture from Conforama and so far have been very happy with it. It was delivered and assembled next day and the tv shelving unit arrached to the wall for a fee which was great for us or we'd have had to buy a drill. Jysk in Punta Prima also have some nice furniture and decorative items cyshions bedding etc.

Hi Cheryl , we have fibre optic and like Pete it's a similar monthly price and also rated at 100mbps . We have experienced no problems at all with the service , even with ,at times five people in the house simultaneously using Phones and Tablets on wi fi.

Conforama have a good selection of furniture, their home delivery and Installation service appears quite efficient . I think most complaints against the store, and there have been many, including one instance of my own, is that of delivery to store of items not in stock. This can, and sometimes does, take an unacceptable long time ,so best advice would be to check if items are in fact in stock in store at La Zenia prior to placing your order.

Hi McCormack..  as was previously said.. no problem with internet, in fact it's far better than the UK, and installation is second to none..

I also agree about Conforama, if it's in stock, your more likely to get it.. ps Leroy Merlin is exactly the same.. Manama..

Pps good luck in your new home.. ;)
