Telefonica shop in Corralejo

http://www.paginasamarillas.es/telefonia/all-ma/las-palmas/all-is/corralejo/all-ba/all-pu/all-nc/1

Movistar Fusion deal, look under the â,¬50 price for Canaries price, tax is lower in Canaries, â,¬44.21 a month inc taxes. Also includes mobile sim deal.

With Movistar, you will currently get 'upto' 20Mb speed depending on your distance from the exchange.

Assuming you are on a complex, you need to see if a phone line is available. Are there any clues in the apartment such as incoming wires or phone socket. If it is an old holiday complex you will struggle.

We are in Caleta and I went to the local Movistar shop on Monday, it has since closed unfortunately, and we were up and running on Thursday.

You will need NIE, passport, bank details and address details to order in the shop.

We get 18 Mb, but we are only about 200m from the exchange, as the crow flies.  ;D

If you don't already have telephone lines going to the apt. forget it. ask you neighbours if they have.
