TV, internet, and phone.

Postby stevee » Wed Dec 08, 2021 8:01 pm

So far we have just managed with IPTV, but am told the community is looking into providing it as a group package. The interent and TV will be on fibre and our present one is very slow and totally unreliable. The figure being quoted is about 20euro per month for two years, but it has to be billed through the administrator. If it is good, will be fine, but if not might be a problem getting shut. Does anyone hvae services provided like this?

Its cheap enough and in your area you would think there would be plenty of take up so service should be ok.

I hadn't thought about it like that, my concern is not being able to get out of the contract unless the majority agree. The larger number in the community are Scandinavians so they wont be bothered about TV in English. If the broadband is good we can look at VPN to get TV I suppose. When we have looked in the past, some of the providers wouldnt entertain us unless we got a few people wanting it installed.

Thats very cheap. Would each house be contracted, or is it one line into the administrators house and then wifi from there ?

@spanish_lad

Each property will have its own separate installation, it is just the billing that will be done communally. My major concern is the service provided being no good to me personally because of the problems getting English TV, but not being able to get out of the contract as it will probably be fine for the proposers who are Scandinavians.

As you say though, it is cheap so might be worth having just for the broadband and if the TV is no good look at an internet based way of getting channels

That would be my way forward
