TV HELP !!! - Page 2

For broadband I use Axartel 24 euro pm 300 up 300 down approx. Try getting that in the UK! Office at Laguna beach. I use Ivacy VPN. I have a media box with the Brit apps on it on one TV and Amazon firestick on the other TV.

I also have satellite. As long as your satellite is for British pickup, you need a digibox tuned to the correct satellite you get BBC ITV Channel 4 and (I think) Channel 5. If you don't know how, contact Dirk 0034 609 675 767, he's German but speaks perfect English

For Spanish you need a Spanish antennae plugged straight into the TV.

With a smart TV tuned into your broadband you get all sorts of wonderful internet programmes too.

Hi 

All company's  charge roaming now £2 A day, just find the best deal on data you can use internationaly, ask about there fair usage policy

Personally I use sky, through the year me and my wife store unused  data in the piggy bank (piggybank is on every tarrif)then you can use all of it when your in Spain, and hotspot on to one phone so theres no charges. At the moment if your interested I just looked and sky Sim only are offering £15 for 30gb all can be used internationally so any unused data rolls over in your piggy bank then every month stored for 3 years.

Just one thing  my daughter and son  was with giffgaf/three and couldn't get a  reception in velez I know EE and vodafone Are good as well

Hola.

I have sent an enquiry form to Axartel to see what there packages are, ideally I am looking for a P.A.Y.G. package as I will only be using the house 3-4 weeks per year, mainly for a smart tv and my Tablet when I am on holiday.

Muchas Gracias

Smarty and Lebara deals all have free roaming in the RU

They only have a 12gb fair usage policy,

Hi Steve

When roaming anywhere in the EU, you can now use your UK allowance with Roam Like Home. This means that while you’re travelling in an EU country you can use your UK allowance of Minutes, Texts and Data, just as you would in the UK. If your data allowances have run out, you can still use your mobile wherever you are in the EU and you’ll pay no more for extra Data than you would in the UK**

Hi 

I am with Virgin Media and they have wrote the above about roaming in Spain

Thanks for your kind help

Warm Regards

I'm not sure about virgin I've been told they use a fair usage calculator, which means you only get a percentage  of your data plan then £3 p gb, I'm not sure if they have a daily roaming charge, I also think if you pay for unlimited data I think you can use it, but please check with Virgin

Useful link above, not really simple solutions for his short stay, but a few deals that might help, all the primary UK TV channel have; geo blocking' which needs VPN software to watch via the Internet from UK, Sky News and GB news are not blocked. He said had a Sat dish and 'if previous owner a Brit' it could be pointing as (Asta 28 degrees south and would pick up a few free to air UK TV channels with a cheap box. If a semi or apartment you can sometimes do a deal and 'pay a neighbour and share' Wi Fi., if they speak Spanish. On a mobile with some data and can listen to UK Radio like LBC and uses little data, good conversation, Spanish FM radio pick up a few stations like 96.3 FM on the Southern Costa https://www.talkradioeurope.com/ It's worth mentioned a few bootleg TV suppliers. No person here an official deal to re- broadcast UK TV and some regular get busted, His astra dish would like this, https://www.andalucia.com/property/tv.htm

Internet in and then use your smart TV ..or IPTV plenty of providers on the Costa..
