What's the latest, best, 'phone line deal?

Postby Trooperman » Tue Jan 21, 2020 1:18 pm

As it says in the Subject heading: what is the best 'phone line deal at the moment.

All I want is an internet connection and, for example, Movistar wants to sell me a fibre optic internet/ phone line, "free" phone calls and all the razzamataz that I don't need for 52 euros per month (excluding cuoto de linea).

Admittedly, that's reduced to 15 euros a month for the first year but, as a simple soul, all I want is access to the internet for my TV: I use my mobile for calls.

What's the favourite amongst you guys out there?

My favourite is exactly what you have just described. I have been with Telefónica/Movistar for years and have never considered changing.

Was just offered an orange deal but again cheap to start with then increases. The problem was you had to have the full package. I only need internet because everything else is sorted.

I share my neighbours WIFI as he has fusion and its lightning quick. He may be moving soon so then I will have to get my own contract.

I went with Olivenet as they have a 100Mb Fibre internet and nothing else added for €19.90/mes. Seems to be ok with all 'phones and my laptop surfing simultaneously. The only pizza-wheel-wait of annoyance was with the other Lenovo on iplayer but I connected it up to the modem-router using an RJ45 cable and that problem went. No other items to report and they got in touch, installed etc pretty quickly. The only issue is if they can provide at your address.
