Just a quick note to say I tried signing up with Jazztell.

First, I couldn't finish the order because they network was down eeker They still took all my info (30 minutes worth of time) but wouldn't give me a name to refer to when I would call back.

So naturally, when I called back a few hours later there was no sign of my paperwork. So all over again. Then they asked for my bank information which I didn't have since I was at an Internet cafe at the time.

I get home an hour later call up and again no record wow. Then after all that we get the information all in and they ask me if I'm the proprietor of the line. Noooo.... That would be my wife.

So I wait until she comes home and does the whole silly process over again.

Then they tell here it'll be 3-5 weeks!!!! A week later the paperwork arrives but they're insistant on taking over the local phone calls something which Juliette had promised to Telefonica. So....

Wanadoo is also offering 20 Mbps at 9€ less a month and isn't hung up about the local calls thing. Since we had them before we'll probably just go with the devil we know.

hey Roland.

exclam CAREFUL!!! the wanadoo promo is 20 euros a month (9 less as you say) but ONLY UNTIL jan. 31, 06. exclam

as i stated on the 20mb jazztel thread ...

quote:
by the way, now wanadoo is also trying to sell the 20 mega adsl + free calls service and they are offering it for 20 euros/month until jan. 06 but then it goes up to 42 euros/month.


gotta read the fine print, it says...

quote:
* Consultar las Bases de la Promoci�n "ADSL 20Mb + Llamadas Nacionales 20�/mes hasta 31 de Enero de 2006". Resto de cuotas 42 euros/mes.


so in the long run, you lose big as it is 12 euros more per month after jan. than the jazztel one is eeker

also, ,i could have sworn you had a nightmare with wanadoo? or am i confusing you with someone else?

ok, guess i am alone in this jazztel thang if i decide to do it cry no way i am going for it if i have significant downtime.

personally i do not care who handles my calls within spain, as long as i don't have to pay for them big grin

Roland, any reason Jules insists on having telefonica handle local calls? or is it personal? just wanna understand.

I think Juliette just had very voice recorded as saying all local calls will be handled by Telefonica. However, after going through Wanadoo, I think that's all sorted out.

Yes, we did have a nightmare with Wanadoo but Jazztel seems to be very inflexible and incompetant over the phone so in the end we decided to go with the Wanadoo. We'll probably rent out a bit of the bandwidth in order to recoup some of the cost.

Also Wanadoo said they'd get us up and running in 2 weeks rather than the 3-5 weeks that Jazztel offered.

So Wanadoo it is.
