Re: unlimited international broadband & TV

Re: Accountant needed

I have been using Helder Roque for a good number of years, very happy with the service and not expensive. His office is next door to the ABC shop in Tavira- through tall green door & up a steep stair.

Re: Electric Bills ?

Stuck with the hours they stipulate. Otherwise it'd be pretty pointless for them.

Re: Ask for fatura and win a car

Apparently you are unlikely to get a new car- more likely one that's been re-possessed by.... the tax department, for.... non-payment of tax!!!

Re: Highway code

Thank you for confirming that @Mike, I was thinking exactly the same thing- it's exactly as I was taught to drive some 30+ years ago. I actually got tooted at on Olhão's cube roundabout the other day...

Re: Satellite dish for skybox

A few HD viewers may have lost some BBC services today. This has nothing to do with the up-coming satellite change-over. Some services (BBC1 Wales for example) have changed over to HD, but are now...

Although my business is installing satellite TV, I have installed a couple of broadband systems for people and they're not bad. Speed was excellent- exactly what was quoted, unlike ADSL's 'up-to'...

Re: Is anyone else Losing tv Channels

Sounds like a problem at your end. Try substituting the Digibox for a known-good one before climbing around the roof. Tip: Always try the easy things first!!

"Sun outage" as it's known occurs twice a year for a few days, and October is one of the months it happens. But it usually only lasts a few minutes in the morning. Calculator here:...

Re: Options for the satelitte user

It's a LOT less legal than $ky. Receiving pay-TV without paying the broadcaster is a crime. Receiving $ky is only contravening the agreement with $ky i.e. not using it at the address specified in...
