Just out of interest, has anyone had an offer - or even accepted one - for connection to the fibre optics in Costa Esuri anywhere?

ANYONE?

guesswork

No but the installation in our portal on Las Encinas was completed last week

They are were working on Lomas last week

I suspect they will start selling when nearly everyone is connected

I'm guessing that its a tad too early, as they are still installing. They were opposite the shop the other day and a bunch of them met for lunch in 3 vans, sitting in a line against the wall eating their packed lunches. I suppose they came from different parts of CE. So as a pure guess from someone who knows nothing about fibre networks, I think they don't yet have end to end connectivity.... or all the 'Gubbins' one needs at each end to get linked up from home to the 'central distribution'.

All said hello & goodbye and seemed a good bunch of lads.

Even though we had problems with Priinet for the first 3 weeks, and was frustrated with them, they have sorted it with a new antenna, and since then we regularly get well over the 10mbs we pay for. That delivers more than everything we need.

So as we are not permanent residents who pay EVERY month..... & USE it daily throughout the year, we won't take the fibre, and hence be chucking money away for the months away. If they offer a 'switch off' service, when we are not here (like the great package Priinet have)... then we would consider it, if the numbers work. I strongly suspect that neither the switch-off policy or the pricing will be worth it (for us).

So even though we've had issues, we will probably stick to Priinet...... 'Warts and all'... and to mix metaphors 'grin and bear it' when problems arise. This time was unusual, (Jorge was on holiday) as previously problems were sorted reasonably quickly... but frustrating.
