Pay television is once again one of the services that causes the most dissatisfaction among households, along with electricity and fixed broadband, according to the results of the Household Panel of the National Markets and Competition Commission (CNMC) corresponding to the second quarter of 2019. In this way, almost 18% of households expressed little or no satisfaction with pay television. In the case of electricity and fixed broadband, dissatisfied households were 17.5% and 17.2% respectively. Mobile telecommunications services are those that have the best user ratings: the percentage of dissatisfied consumers is around 11%. As has already happened in other waves of the Panel, the data indicate that the main reason for household dissatisfaction with the services is their high price, especially in the case of electricity and gas services: this is the reason given by 93% of households dissatisfied with the electricity service and 87% of households dissatisfied with the gas service. In fixed broadband services, the second reason for complaint is the lack of quality of service (for example, due to supply interruptions) and in telephony the poor perception of customer service. Data from the second quarter of 2019 show less user dissatisfaction with service prices (with the exception of electricity prices). The CNMC Household Panel also collects information on the number of complaints. As has been happening in recent years, the service with the most complaints is fixed broadband (15% of users have complained at some point in a year while a year before that percentage was 17%). Regarding the reasons for the complaints, the main complaint is billing problems, which confirms the trend registered in the last waves of the Panel. However, in the case of fixed broadband, the main reason for complaining is the lack of quality of service (54%) (Source: CNMC)Pay television, electricity and fixed broadband, the services least valued by Spanish households Satellite antenna (Photo: Cellnex)Audiovisual services and mobile broadband, drivers of growth in the telecommunications sector in 2018 Evolution of pay TV subscribers (millions) - CNMC-The billing of audiovisual services and broadband pulled the telecommunications sector in 2017 Wanda MetropolitanoThe new Wanda Metropolitano will be the first stadium in Spain capable of offering real mobile broadband 8 out of every 10 mobile lines in Spain have an Internet connection Three out of every four mobile lines in Spain have broadband Broadband exceeds one million fiber optic lines to the home (FTTH) for the first time Default ThumbnailSix out of ten households with broadband in the US already use connected television Impact of OTT services on broadband Broadband loses almost 9,000 lines during the month of July
