Who's Where

Hi everyone,

 

We completed on Wednesday and am over the moon. Met some great people and had a few beers. (well a few is an understatement).

I am trying to find out who ownes No 10b and 9a as we would like to purchase satelite tv and dish on a shared basis for the 4 apartments.

Does anybody know ?

 

Regards

Drew & Karen

Hi,

First time visitors to a message board so bear with us.  We are the owners of 9a and are also interested in satallite tv and would consider a shared package if feasible.  Let us know what we need to do.  We haven't yet completed but hope to do so in the next couple of weeks and hope to be out in Spain at the end of May.

Hi Alyson & John,
Big welcome to the Los Olivos forum - regarding satellite tv and sharing a dish, then it depends on whether any of the four in a block want Skyplus - basically you can have upto 4 feeds from one dish, but Skyplus requires 2 feeds.
I have seen a number of people have already bought the huge grey 1 meter across dishes, which don't exactly blend in with the scenery - if every apartment bought their own, the place would look like Jodrell Bank !  I would encourage people to share and minimise both the cost and the effect on the attractiveness of the development (and I have to say it is looking pretty good at the moment).
Quite a few people have bought sat tv dishes and/or air-con units through D-Match - they install LG a/c units which have a 7-year guarantee and whose maintenance guys are based just down the road in Garrucha.
So I would get in touch with Drew  & Karen (10a) and Linda & Steve (9b) and leave a note under the door of 10b to see if they want to club together and save costs (I think the dishes are around 500 euros installed).

All the best
