There are also a couple of childrens channels in English.

How much did you pay for the reciever Danny, and did the cost include connection?
Thanx, Vix

I paid about £40 for the receiver and about £10 to have it connected to the dish and tuned in. My agent arranged the satellite man to do it for me.

Hi Georgina

That site is completely in Arabic and I couldn't see a button to convert it to english.

Can anyone get this or is it just in El Gouna?

Thanks

Hi Lyndsay,

If you click on 'Customer Zone' then on the next screen, top left, you will see 'English' click that and voila

Yes I have a slingbox and works perfectly, I get all Sky programs through on a 4 to 5 second delay from the set up in my UK house, Apart from the basic price £150 inc set up, I don't need to pay anything else.
I bought some patch leads and now can watch on my TV in the villa.
Who needs dishes?

I looked into getting a Slingbox over a year ago but thought I'd wait until they were really up and running. So you've had no problems at all? I think I might have another look!
