Hi all
As most of us in uk are looking to try to save money where we can at the moment I’ve been told to ditch sky and get a firestick and pay the annual fee to use IDTV saving over £1000 per year

Does anyone currently use IDTV and is it a good swap for sky ?

I have been using IPTV with a firestick for about 5 years now to watch Portuguese and UK channels, costs me 35 euros a year for the full package or just 20 euros if you just want one country! I have sent a stick to my sister, my dad, my cousin.... 🙄🙄🙄

I run a Plex server and even found a way to convert the IPTV channels into a LiveTV/DVR so then I can just use one App to view it all, on my smart TV without the need for the Firestick!

I find that the Portuguese channels work 100% all the time, the UK is hit and miss, there is another IPTV service for around £60 a year that my mate uses that UK channels work just fine 😉 (I can provide details via PM if you need it, not happy sharing this info on UKAPS public)

One caveat is that some UK ISP's block IPTV Streams so a VPN is a must if you want your streams available all the time, I use a VPN company that offers deals via third parties for £40 lifetime subscription! Again, I have been using this VPN company for around 6-7 years!

I got rid of Sky last February! I was paying £50 a month for what is essentially junk.

I don't even watch TV so there was definitely no point.

I don't miss it at all.

We did the same about 3 years ago - killed the £65 a month Sky subscription, and now watch everything via apps (Netflix, Amazon Prime, BBC iPlayer etc). Even the wife manages to get her Home and Away fix (Yeah, I know! 🙄) via the MyFive app. The writing has got to be on the wall for Sky in the new digital streaming age!

I haven't wacthed live TV for over 10 years (only for sporting events if that), use catch up services or download the stuff I want to watch when I want to watch it 😉
