Hi, I  have recently  purchased  in la Zenia, the urbanisation  does not have fibre and I  would be grateful for advice for Wi-Fi and tv

We will be using the property  for2/3 week periods  several times a year  and don't  know what to look for at this stage

Thanks

Brid

A satellite dish won't get you Freeview but it might get you Freesat!

Hi Brid

We had same scenario as you when we bought 4 years ago, had no fibre so went for mast type wi-fi and sat dish installation from a company called P & NTV Services. They are an established English company, had no problems with the world-fi, and had to have the sat dish realigned in the one occasion.

You can pay as you go, contact them in advance and they will phone you back to make the payment - have been great for us, exactly what we need. Highly recommend them 👍

Hi Brid09,

I'm in a similar situation in my flat in Denia- my personal choice is a satellite dish and set top box for 400 euros , one off payment and gets all freeview programmes . For wifi I've got a UK sim card with unlimited data which you can use in Spain , costs £20 a month.

Hope this helps , Warwick

Hi Warwick - What channels do you get on your set-top box?

I am told all the usual freesat channels,  but not had the box installed yet as I am stuck in the UK for a few weeks . I will be using a company called The sat and PC Guy , www.satandpcguy.com - I'm sure he will give you any help you need , Warwick

Hi Steve , apologies can't give more info on the channels , but the latest best deal is bring a freesat box out from the uk ( cost about £80 ) and can get dish installed and set up for 250 euros , no ongoing costs.

It will be xmas before it's all sorted ( first xmas in Spain) so will keep you updated .

Regards Warwick
