wifi2go

[Nick]

Hi

I picked up a leaflet for "wifi2go.travel" from the information kiosk in PP last week.
Has anyone used them and any comments atall please.
(Cost is from 39.90 euros a week to rent the device).

If you book wifi2go via our site & use code PTOPOLLENSA15, you get a 15% discount! There's been quite a lot of feedback here & none negative as far as I'm aware.

We are using it this week. Very easy to use, very useful with two teenagers in tow! Collected it from the airport, just behind the resort hopper desk. Then return back at the end of the holiday. Can someone tell me how to get to arrivals when we get dropped off at departures please, that's my only concern. We have 4 devices linked to it and switch it off when not using it and charge it up over night. Will definitely use again

Arrivals is one floor down from the departures check in area.

I have also used this before..great service..I am also curious how I get to arrivals from the departure check in area as that is where the bus will drop us.

 

[Tiggy]

There is a lift which goes down to the arrivals area from departures hall ...you come out on the public side of arrivals not the airside ...easy peasy no stress then back in the lift up to departures and then up the escalator to security etc etc etc

Hello everyone!

To get to the first floor, if you enter the departures terminal through the door marked easyjet, there is a lift right on your left hand side. This will take you to arrivals, and the office is only 30 mts to the right. Altogether 1-2 minutes.

And thank you all for your good comments!!!

We've used wifi2go twice and can thoroughly recommend. Easy pick-up and drop-off and brilliant to use, not only in your villa/apartment but out and about too.

I think I'll definitely be using them for my next visit now then. I'll post as to how it goes, and I'm always brutally honest with write-ups!!!

It has been great..I know there are a number of places you can get free wifi but this is so much easier .

Just back from a week in PP and thought I'd use the "wifi2go" gadget.

Booked online with 15% discount through puertopollensa.com. Very efficient and quick email system. Gadget worked well, we just kept it plugged in at our apartment. Couldn't believe how small it is!

Great little system and easy to order, collect and drop off at the Jet2 kiosk at B exit. Saves the cost and hassle of having the internet installed in the apartment against the amount of usage it would have. Will definitely be using them again.

As an aside, also met the Whaleywanderers while in PP, very nice couple happily settled into Mallorcan life!

Slightly off post but we were over last weekend and noticed that our IB RED wifi which is usually really reliable was a bit hit and miss ...... Also noticed I wouldn't connect to the public wifi in the square on a few occasions which is also provided by IB RED

Wondered if anyone else has noticed a real degradation of service and also wondered if it is just sheer weight of numbers at this time as this is the first time we have tried to use our wifi during peak season

I've had the wifi2go thingy all fortnight and in the main it's been reliable. Have had to reset my phone and ipad a few times though as it's lost its connection.

Have tried various times to get onto the municipal WiFi with no luck atall. Down to volume of people?

IB RED did say earlier in the year in a newspaper article they will probably not cope in the summer because so many people now have TV through the internet I think you will find this will only get worse

Wifi2go

I'm trying to rent a wifi2go unit but can't get their website to accept my details.
Does anyone know if they even operate over winter?
Thanks.

They did last year and I emailed Javier to check..he replied that he was not sure if they will still be operating and I am waiting for him to get back to me..it will be such a shame as I have had a fantastic service with them..does anyone know of a similar operation

 

[Nick]

I emailed them direct as well with no reply yet. Shame because as you say it's a good piece of kit.

Hopefully someone can shed some light on the situation or advise what else there is out there - that's easy to use of course!

Multihire were doing the same wifi to go in October. Dont know if a) they are open at present and b) if they are still doing them. Might be worth an email or phone call though

 

[pollensa]

I will try & find out about wifi2go (I've had no response to an email either). There is another company featured on our site at puertopollensa.com/internet_cafes.html#mobilewifi who offer the same sort of deals. If you try them, do let us know how you get on.

 

[Nick]

I can't seem to find Multi-hire on here, sure it is but there you go. Does anyone know if they are currently open or have their details.
Thanks.
