Hi all,

Does anyone on here from El Contador, have fibre optic broadband?


 If so, which company do you use?

Cheers


Austin and Trevor

I’ll second Duggy here - but it’s 1 GB/s for 30€ :-D - I know this as I have Digi both at my business in Vera and recently here at my apartment in Vera Playa.  If you can get Movistar where you are, you’ll get Digi - it’s a fantastic service and very quick to install.  I digitally signed the contract on a Wednesday, the next day Telefonica arrived to do external infrastructure, run new Fibre optic from the central box etc, then the following day Digi techs came and installed and set up router and Fibre optic decoder.  Super fast service, tested at 940 Mbps down, 848 Mbps up … all for 30€ a month with a minimum contract of only 3 months.

I would 100% recommend DigiMobil to anyone that can get it.

 As far we can tell Movistar don’t cover El Contador. So who does? Any ideas?

Hi Dario

Thanks for that, that package sounds exactly what we need but apparently Movistar don’t cover El Contador. Do you have any idea how to find out who does? We saw someone installing the cables last year, but can’t pin down who covers the area.

We are down for a few days in September and December then a week in January so we had hoped to have it up and running by then.

Many thanks 

Austin and Tre

Struggling to find it myself - I think I saw an article regarding El Contador and Jazztel, but can’t find it now!!
