Telecommunications in Las PalmasPostboxlaspalmas - You can always get in touch the old-fashioned way
Stay SafeIf you have a veranda/patio on ground level - don't leave doors nor windows open unattended for any period of time. Stay away from anyone that offers you anything for free -like lottery tickets or a free meal. These are often salespeople who want you to buy potentially worthless "holiday club" memberships or dodgy time-shares. They may seem pleasant at first, but may turn hostile and start threatening you.
