This message was originally how to contact SKY locally.
Now I think local or phone inquiries are handled thru Cihuatlan
--------------------------
He's about a 1/2 block off the hyway, a block east (towards town) of Herradura (equivalent of course because Herradura is 3 blocks from the hyway)

My cost for installation (next day) was $900mx and they have packages starting at $299 up to 700-800 a month

Lately I'm thinking of switching from SKY to the local cable company for 2 reasons. Maybe three if the channels are real similar.

1. 200 pesos for cable and 400-450 for SKY (depending on paying early or late(r))
2. Local cable is here with an office and SKY is national and dealing with them by phone is worse than Telmex. Also the SKY website is terrible - I wish that worked half as well as Telmex
3. I need to recheck the channel schedule

WARNING - SKY needs a one year contract to install and I was just notified there is a $3000 peso penalty for canceling early. I only have one month more to wait and don't want issues - but consider not using your credit card if it is still possible. Paying by Credit card is easy ... but they can stick you if you have to cancel early for any reason. The contract does not mention the penalty amount.

I just switched to the new cable and find there are half the English channels that SKY has. Mainly the movie channels are what's missing. Even TCN/TNC (the classic movies) are dubbed in Spanish. Still have the news and 1-2 more ..... but if English is important to you ... think about it at half the price
