As I write this, it is Tuesday, July 23 2019. We've just returned home from the cable/Internet office. We've paid the required fee and signed the appropriate papers and were told we should have service in 3 to 5 days - today being day one and Saturday being day five. We'll see just how accurate they are in their estimate.
Update:
When we signed up for cable service on Tuesday, we were told that, depending on the work load, the fibre-optic cable would be installed wihin 3 to 5 days, with Tuesday being day one. That would mean that we might expect service as early as today (Thursday). Honestly, I was not expecting to be connected today.
However, much to my surprise, the men from Fil-Products arrived this morning just after 9:00 AM. They managed to run the cable from the Magatas road to just inside our house, and after securing the cable, the men started their lunch break (11:30). There shouldn't be much more work to do after lunch.
Update:
The workers from Fil Products returned from lunch at 2 o'clock......after 2 1/2 hours. When they arrived, they went right to work and we have wifi and cable tv 30 minutes after they resumed work. Too bad they couldn't just work until noon before taking lunch. Oh well......
