Do you know Georgia, I'm sick and tired of all this TV stuff......................................Lots and lots of speculation, varying and differing daily.
You're right tho, how can we trust Telmicro again, of course they are going to say, yes we're legal, yas, we have all the right papers.........................BUT...................do we believe them after the last few months?
We can only base the future on past experience, and past experience of Telmicro stinks !!!

If we're honest all the English TV companies are as bad as each other, if we could all use the big dishes then they would go out of business.
The simple fact is most home owners in Spain can not so will be relying on one of these companies to supply something that can be picked up on a small ariel which can easily be placed on their roof.
There's so much going around and most of it is myth but there could be some hidden thruth there.
The main thing is don't panic into going over to another supplier of these systems. They could be on the way out, so stick to a monthly payment which can be stopped immediately.
Apologies to Satandpcguy for misspelling your "name", I know someone on another site which is down at the moment has been changing it deliberately. I just think quicker than I can type and normal have to edit before I send.

"Apologies to Satandpcguy for misspelling your "name", I know someone on another site which is down at the moment has been changing it deliberately. I just think quicker than I can type and normal have to edit before I send. "
it no problems at all - i just found it ironic that two people misspelt is - one as satan and the other as santa!!!!
any my spelling it bad as i type quicker than i think and have got intot he routine of typing "reciver" and not "receiver" - is just automatic.
curently my advice would be to wait and see what happens to TM in light of their statement - you may get some channels but maybe not sky subs channels....so big dishes may not be required....

On the dot com site someone has posted "I have a member of my family who is married to a Guardia Civil officer. They are being prosecuted for tax evasion, fraud and there are obviously further investigations ongoing as a result of this. But he did say that the closure of the company was due to tax evasion, the channels they were broadcasting were not of interest to them."
One member said "re no tv we have switched ours back to spanish re the box inside your property at least we can watch olympics it is easy to do or telemicro is charging 25 euro to do it for you and 25 euro to switch you back if as they say they are resuming service 1st sept well wait and see and watch spanish till then"
They were asked "how do you switch ?"
Another member then added "If you have a communal aerial feed to our property, (Spanish TV) you simply reconnect it through to the back of your TV and plug it in direct...."

I keep reading all the rumours but I am certain of one thing and that is if they were as rumoured re-openning their offices yesterday or starting transmissions on 1st September they wpuld have announced this yesterday on Sunshine FM
The contents of the announcement were very vague and actually promised nothing
As a result of my business clients I deal with the Spanish legal system on a regular basis and I can tell you that they move VERY SLOWLY especially at the moment as it is the peak holiday season
The other thing about the Spanish system is that it is very black and white which means that if a business, in my case often a builder, is stopped from trading then that´s what they have to do till all matters are resolved

If you already have a big dish buy youself a 50 pound Bush Freesat box from Argos and try it on the dish
The dish may need re-alignment but if it works you will get all the main channels BBC etc for free

Part of the bail conditions of the others is that nothing to do with Telmicro can be touched etc. So I doubt very much they will be back on air." 
After a few posts in which others asked which horse's mouth it was from  she said "Emile - they guy that set the company up" This message was last edited by morerosado on 8/22/2008.

There is an e-mail address for Telmicro and they actually respond to queries and here is a response to my queries
In fairness to telmicro they are answering e-mail queries and the following is their response, received within 2 hours on me mailing them, to my queries on start dates and channel line up
Dear Customer,
Telmicro is not broadcasting at the moment. There is an official statement at http://www.telmicro.es
We are doing all that we can under the current circumstances. Telmicro Levante has all the licenses and legal permits to be back on.
We are working again to restore your television service as soon as is possible.
The company will not be charging any of our clients until the service has been restored.
We will continue to issue statements with updated information, as and when it becomes available.
Regarding your questions, we are expecting to be back on by mid-September, but we are making every effort to speed the process up. We are also prepared to acquire new station equipment necessary (in case not everything is returned). The company will bear the cost of all this, and the customer premises equipment will carry on as before. Regarding the channel line up, we are confident it will include all the main English channels and a series of pay TV channels we have contracted, but no further information is available at this time.
We ask you for your patience and continued support.
Regards,
Telmicro Levante S.L.

Now that thousands of ex Telmicro customers have redundant fish frying baskets fixed to the roof or already taken down, can anyone suggest a suitable use for them.
As a keen gardener, I thought maybe hanging flower backets or something to grow stawberries in.
Any suggestions welcome.
By the way, Telimicro have done us a security favour, the robo's look for the fish frying dish to point out where expats live and therefore maybe rich pickings.

I have looked at so many different forums to see what people are saying about Telemicro, I also need to make a decision about cancelling my standing order. I believe I have 30 days grace to claim back any funds if they have been removed by mistake.
I'm sure most banks know what's been going on with this company so I'm going to leave it as it is, afterall they didn't take out June's after what happened in May.
I did read that someone had emailed TM and he received a reply back that they were hoping to be back on 2nd week in September or earlier.

"When I looked at it a few minutes ago the counter showed 2,223 hits - so a lot of interested parties looking!"
i just added 10 views by refreshing the page, which you can do with most hit counters!!
