We were bought one as a gift, with the Ipod connections, for Christmas. Couldnt get any English channels at all but thought we just needed a bit of time to fiddle with it. Radio Azul seemed to have a lot of english music with Spanish announcers and DJ's and was the best we came up with. It remains in Spain though and will probably be used for the Ipods now, glad we caught this thread as it'll save us wasting our time.

I'm sort of working from what I have gathered from other buyers. Probably it will all become clearer when we actually hear for ourselves. From what  I understood after completion the utilities change over should be be between 30-60 day and there's no access to the property during that time. Developer is arranging for that changeover- dont believe there's any suggestion that everything isnt in order just that there are alot of properties. I think people are going over to snag, complete and then there a 30 day window at least before access can be allowed. Maybe for any problems to be rectified. As I say we can be more accurate once we know for ourselves.

Thanks to everyone for supplying information here- seems all clearer and more manageable.  We've not been given a completion date yet but others on our development have just had these start filtering through plus I believe they have been told the utilities can take 30- 60 days. Expecting just the bare wire, so anything more will be bonus.

We were looking at after the snagging and completion because we know you cannot use the apartment until the utilities are changed over.

We intend to use a hotel at completion time or organise PoA with our solicitors- undecided on that one yet.

We had thought we can arrive and stay in a hotel for the 1st night then make some essential purchases- like lights (even the bedside lights and a standard light will do because they plug in) an airbed and some patio chairs then at least be able to stay in the apartment. But ideally fitting the main lights as soon as possible, after that we'll have to do it bit by bit. Would be excellent to be able to have it all arrive when we're not there but the bigger things will have to wait until we can spend more than a couple of days there. Exciting planning it though.
