Default RTN Network ASDL

I was contacted today by a rep from RTN Network (Round Town News).They were trying to get me to change to one of their ASDL/phone/TV pachages.I am with Telefonica at the moment.

Has anyone out their any experience of RTN Network services?

I have heard good reports of the RTN service. There are also other companies offering the same thing, so it would be a good idea to compare prices.
I use Europa Network, and find the service excellent, but as with everything, a bit of haggling might save you some cash!
Certainly better than Telefonica!!!!!!!!!!

A friend locally used RTN for his internet (they wont do the TV thing up here) and is quite happy with it.

Have used RTN for over a year now and am very satisfied. I do pay for local calls but I get 120 free minutes of calls to UK. I pay for 6mb of broadband and with a speed test is usually up around the 5.5mb download speed which is probably better than what you would get for 6mb in UK. With local calls my monthly bill is around the €60 - €65 range which includes the 18% IVA. I get a bill for Adsl & phone every month online.

As a new client you may be able to push for free calls in Spain which would be a bonus.

Sorry can't help re the TV side.

I pay 65€ with telefonica so there does not seem any point in changing especially as the service is excellent.

It's a question of what you are getting for your money though, how many megabites etc.
Telefonica fell well short in the comparison stakes!

You also have to take into account that if you have problems with any third party provider, Movistar will not be interested in helping you solve those problems.

On the contrary, they are receiving a rental payment from RTN or Europa for the line and it is in their interest to keep things working. I use Europa and when I had a problem with my connection, it was sorted out very quickly by Telefonica. As I said in Post 2, service has been excellent!

I am with Telefonica (now Movistar) and pay 47.64 including iva, that is for my line, 6mb adsl and free calls within Spain. I am not aware of any regional differences in price so if you are paying more then get calling 1004 and ask for a discount/better deal or else you're away to another provider.

I found that with Telefonica I had 6mb for a reasonable price (can't remember what it was), but after one year, all they would offer, even with the threat of changing, was 3mb for the same money. Europa gave me 6 mb (now 8mb) + excellent U.K. television, + other things, that I leave to my good lady to think about
