SKY TV, Cuidado con ellos…

September 1st, 2009

SKY TV nos ha decepcionado enormemente, después de muchos años de lealtad, (hemos sido clientes de SKY TV durante muchos años) por razones que van más allá de nuestro control nos vemos obligados a emigrar de Los Cabos, cerrando cuentas y cumpliendo nuestras obligaciones con CFE, Telmex, Agua potable, etc. Llamamos a Sky TV para cancelar nuestra cuenta porque nos vamos del país. Cuál fué nuestra sorpresa cuando el representante de “servicio” nos dijo que no se puede cancelar, tenemos que seguir pagando durante 13 meses! Robo en despoblado! Tengan mucho cuidado al hacer tratos con SKY TV, Cualquier opción de cable es mejor que SKY TV, y sobre todo, si lo contrata, no utilize su tarjeta de crédito! SKY TV arruinará su credito! Harán cargos automáticos aunque usted no utilize su servicio. En pocas palabras, lea muy bien su contrato, parece que los agentes de “servicio” no son mas que agentes de ventas “a comisión” que no dejarán ir su cuenta a toda costa. “Cuidado con SKY TV”

Sky TV Rip-Off… Gringos Beware

September 1st, 2009

Sky Tv in Mexico is a total and absolute rip off! you would think that Sky TV would value their loyal customers, after many years of using their services I am most dissapointed with their cancellation policy but most of all their extremely poor customer service…I guess that will happen when a monopoly like SKY TV has the stick by the handle and leave you holding the other end…. I am an expat living in Cabo San Lucas heading back to the US for good since the economy has soured down here, we have been loyal customers of SKY TV since it started in Mexico, we have never contracted the “pirate card” to receive the gringo network and ball game channels, that was probably a mistake! Closing down our contracted responsibilities for the move, power, phone, water, etc. we called SKY TV to thank them for many years of enjoyable viewing only to be told by an extremely rude rep that SKY TV CANNOT BE CANCELLED! you must continue to make payments for 13 MONTHS! Are you serious? you gotta be kidding me! if you contract SKY TV beware! pay monthly, don´t let these people get hold of your credit card…if you try to cancel SKY TV will ruin your credit. We are contacting PROFECO Mexico´s attorney general for consumer affairs to report SKY TV, this is simply a rip off! We cannot afford to have our credit ruined and we surely don´t believe it´s fair that we be obligated to pay for a service we won´t receive. Gringo Beware especially with a contract in spanish with a dishonorable company like SKY TV.

Cabo San Lucas…Buyers market at last, Puerta del Mar.

August 9th, 2009

Cabo San Lucas is at last a buyers market again. Once upon a time, long ago Cabo was a true land of opportunity, then demand took hold and real estate prices sky rocketed, real estate of all kinds, raw land for development, condos, villas, houses and lots, simply out of reach of the possibilities of mere mortals, as these luxuries were reserved only for the mega rich. Then came the economic downturn or negative growth as a friend likes to put it, the lending scandal that shook the US and world economy to it´s core, swine flu and other calamities slammed the market to the floor. Developers now are much more willing to sit down and negotiate with potential buyers  eager to land a great opportunity in one of the destinations developments. No doubt, Puerta del Mar in Cabo San Lucas is just such a development. Small (20 homes), large and well built residences, gated and guarded community, ideally located with a great view of the Cabo San Lucas Bay, you couldn´t ask for more from a developer…or could you? Rodrigo Cabeza de Vaca, is the builder and developer of Puerta del Mar, he handles marketing and sales as well. If you are searching for a great place at a great price Puerta del Mar is the place and Rodrigo Cabeza de Vaca is the developer you cant trust.

Investing in Cabo San Lucas can be a bit scary, but then the same can be said about Anyplace, USA for that matter, it´s all about knowing your way around, recognizing a good deal and knowing the right people, the latter is specially true once again, not only in a foreign country but in Anyplace, USA.

Rodrigo Cabeza de Vaca is that right person…an extraordinary entrepreneur, Rodrigo arrived in Cabo San Lucas 12 years ago, attracted by the many opportunities that the destination offered and opened his first restaurant. La Galeria is a gourmet restaurant specializing in international cuisine, using recepies he has collected when traveling the world. At the Marina in Cabo San Lucas La Galeria is not to be missed, Rodrigo also saw that the real money could be made in real estate, he recognized the opportunity and purchased the land for his first development, Puerta del Mar in Cabo San Lucas, a small, secluded and elegant gated community of only 20 3 and 4 bedroom homes all of which enjoy great views of the Cabo San Lucas Bay. Well priced between 500,000 and 800,000 USD they certainly won´t take long to sell.
