Cheaper land line and ADSL
Cheaper land line and ADSL
Paying 60 euro plus per month for line and adsl. This is before any calls etc. Anybody know any cheaper alternatives for a land line?

telefonica
I have that 41 euros telefonica deal, costs about 80 a month by the time they have added on 10 different charges for god knows what, every time the bill comes, they have slipped a new charge on, if you phone they will take it off next time, but if you don´t keep on top on them it keeps going up, and up and up.
I've been looking around at a few different ISP's for costs, telefonica seems a bit too high to me.
Can anyone confirm if their are any problems with coverage of ya.com or orange in Nerja/Andalucia?
Also what does ADSL + llamadas mean? I know it means ADSL + calls, but does that mean you get free calls or does it mean that the land line is provided with the ADSL?

What are peoples experience with Orange web provider in Spain?
I know they haven't done too well over here (in the UK), they're relatively new here, but I hear that Orange are more popular for internet then mobile phone abroad.
Also Babby mentioned that they get their internet from their Town Hall, does anyone know if this is done in Nerja also?
I'm just looking to not over spend for phone/internet with Telefonica.

orange
My friend in Balanegra, had nothing but trouble with the adsl from Orange and it has took 5 months to rectify and she speaks fluent Spanish, so beware it could prove difficult for you
No soporto ver la casa sucia, ahora mismo me levanto y apago la luz.
I keep getting sales calls from orange, the latest said they would do ADSL plus phone calls for 19 euros a month. Had a reasonably long discussion, saying I don´t buy over the phone, needed their phone number so I could call at a good time for me. The salesperson referred me to the website. So how come the price is so low???Does anyone here use them successfully?
We have a telefonica landline, but only accessible for dial up internet at present, and we can´t get mobile coverage. Any ideas?

I have recently got ADSL with Orange. Their cheapie offer wasn't available for my number/line, so I have their regular price ADSL which is 36€ per month. Been brilliant so far although the set up of the wifi router entailed an hour on the phone with one of their technicians but he was very patient and helpful and got it sorted.
I did have, briefly, a wifi set up via our town hall, but it was worse than useless, connectivity dodgy, speed esp upload absolutely diabolical.

Car phone warehouse are in spain too under title The Phone Shop I think....do a search for them on internet. BT are here as well.....They offer very cheap calls via telefonica land lines......also check for Telefonica promotions. They are crafty, will phone you about a deal, then ring you back two days later to tell you that you must phone them and register for the deal they have just offered you. In our ¡case we had already made the 20 minutes intl call we thought was free but as we were not registered for it as no one told us we were charged........its a good wheeze......
