Hi everyone,
I need advice regarding internet. We had a second viewing in our dream property yesterday and put a deposit down Problem: The place isn't actually available end of December but end of January! The landlord was very apologetic though and offered to accommodate us in the apartment below which we also viewed and liked. There's no internet though and we absolutely need it (I work from home).
My question is: Can we get Melita internet for 1 1/2 months in the apartment (that's how long it would be approx.) and then move the connection to the penthouse above? How long does a move usually take and would it incur a charge?
I was also thinking about prepaid internet plans. Has anyone had a good experience with a certain provider? We would need quite fast speeds, especially upload (I'm hosting Citrix webinars with 50 people or more).
I'm also worried we might not be able to get internet in the apartment since we have no rental agreement for it, only the penthouse! Is this the case or can you just walk into a shop, show your passport, fill in a form with the address and off you go?
Lastly, would we need a Maltese bank account for the billing? My partner doesn't have one yet as his employer actually recommended keeping the Irish one for now. Apparently it took employees months to get one (stricter criteria?) and they are happy paying into his Irish account. I hope this won't be a problem when applying for internet
Thanks in advance!
Melanie
