Following on from John's last posting - this certainly seems to be the situation ( that Evemarina are still considering)!!
I have this morning spoken to Paco at the administrators office to arrange access on Tuesday next week to the roof and to the locations of exisiting Astra system - in order that a local, reputable satellite installation company can give us a detailed quote.
I understand from Paco that he is already awaiting a similar quote from a Marbella based installation company, who viewed the project yesterday.
Please understand that no work has yet commenced on the installation, and as far as I am aware - Evemarina are still 'considering' paying for it.
There seem to be several options for us - 2 of which are -
- 1 communal system - to be paid for in it's entirety by Evemarina - or reluctanly by the community of owners ( we hope not of course)
- Installation of several dishes - from which a minimum of 10 and maximum of 18 connections can be made - whereby individual owners who elect to be connected would pay for the cabling to their apartment.
Please bear in mind that regardless of who installs and pays for the Sky package - you will have to purchase your own digibox in order to receive programmes. The box for each apartment is never included in any companies 'package'. You can purchase a good digibox - which will give you all 'free to air' channels - BBC, ITV etc for € 220 Euros here at the moment.
I hope to be able to give you better information - after this meeting on Tuesday.
Have a great weekend
