We have tv and broadband and it’s 45 Euro for 30 days but cheaper if broadband only. Their website is very good and you can tailor your package. I can’t remember fully but think installation was about 120 plus 45 but that then included another 2 months use to be taken when you want. I may have remembered that cost wrong but they speak good English and will tell you 🙂

Also have Olé, fiber internet 600/600, no TV.

When using on/off, there is an installation fee (EUR 49) + 3 months (EUR 40,50 x3) payment at the beginning - cash only, given to the technician who brings you the wifi router/modem box. First month starts running immediately after the installation, the remaining two must be activated either online or via email to their customer service.

The wifi router/modem they provide is a cheap Chinese PoS so keep that in mind if you want to use wifi on the solarium (hint: the signal probably won't be able to go that far) - you will need to buy a better wifi router or a range extender.

Speeds are stable and so is the connection. Quick replies to emails.

Hi,

We use dvblab. They will turn it on or off within an hour or so of getting your email. We used to have it like this but then with Covid19 got fibre permanently so we could have cameras on to sigh wistfully at the live feed (oh, and security 😁)

That, including a full uk tv package and recordable rewindable channels for 30 days, is 25€ a month.

They have a good website, good customer service too, and speak all the languages. 

Hope it helps!
