Hello!
Sorry if this has been asked before but we’re new to Punta Prima and to this forum!
We’ve just completed on a new apartment at the top end of Calle Escorpiones in Punta Prima. We’re visiting next week and would like to set up the Wi-Fi and TV.
Would anyone be able to recommend a competitively priced provider in this area?
Very much appreciated. Thank you. Johnny.

Hi Johnny
Try https://olecomunicacion.net/ and https://www.avatel.es/ for internet access.
They can also provide TV channels, but you're unlikely to get as many channels as you would get through the internet using eg a Firestick.
If your property already has a suitable satellite dish, you may prefer to use it with a Sky box, or Freesat box (NOT Freeview)
Cheers
Steve

Hi Johnny
You need internet from Ole or Avatel if you want full TV Sports etc you will need IPTV and the Wi-Fi suppliers will only supply basic FREE TO AIR. if you want something more if you are going to be living. I am near Emerald Isle la florida and can point you in the right direction re IPTV.

Again thank you Pete. It is just a holiday home (at this stage anyhow) so will just need basics at the moment. All the best,
Jo

Hi
Our property is on the next street to Calle Escorpiones. We have Avatel broadband and it is brilliant. They have a stall in Al-Campo in La Zenia Boulevard. We made an appointment for them to fit it, they came on time and we have never had a minutes bother since.
We use an amazon firestick for tv - bought in the UK - and manage with that. It's not ideal but it's a cheap option when generally the first few months of buying a property is expensive due to buying things you need and want to make your property a home. At some stage we will look into better options but we are OK for now, two and a half years on
