What is the Future of UK British Television 
on the Spanish Costa del Sol? Now that it looks like the New Astra 2E satellite will possibly leave thousands without BBC1, ITV or BBC2 as new satellite

"DO NOT PANIC & DO NOT END UP WITH A CHEAP QUICK FIX"

With many advertisements and promotions taking place along the Spanish Costa del Sol and many new start up Businesses popping up in the local Newspapers  many British Families have been tempted by "cheap" offers of FREE UK TV that later leave them feeling conned and cheated as the sellers are often trading off a mobile phone that will soon be thrown away and swapped for a new number and a new Company name.

Take Diane & Terry from San Pedro that responded to an advert seen in a local free paper that advertised "All the Sports, All the Movies BBC + ITV & More" Terry explained to us that after reading several News reports that everyone should get ready for THE BIG SWITCH OFF that he now thinking back stupidly handed over hard earned cash to a man in a English plated Mercedes in a car- park in Marbella only to find that what he had purchased was a cheap imported android box that had not been programed to allow access to anything other than some Russian content. 

After contacting the owners of this Blog in order to warn other of his experience Terry was pleasently suprised when we organised one of our tech savvy engineers to delete everything off of this box that he had been sold and then loaded XBMC that allows him to watch Filmon although in hindsight they could have done that with their PC so really it was €250 down the drain.

With Xmas almost upon us and with Terry's Family coming to stay with them over the Festive season Terry had seen the advertisement and agreed to purchase a IPTV box and remote control that turned out to be useless for watching British TV and to add insult to injury the remote control was not even compatible with the unit supplied by the supplier.


Terry told us that "I trusted this person to supply me with what we had agreed on" as with most purchases in Spain you need to be vigilant and always insist on a receipt and always make sure that the Company is SL registered or at least get an NIE number if it is a one man band.

It has been 3 weeks since Terry parted with his money and despite numerous calls and text messages so far all he has been told is that the person he dealt with has returned to the UK and that they know nothing about it, when Terry asked for the Company name they put the telephone down, he then approached the Newspaper where the advert was placed and it turns out the advert was paid for in cash and that a Lady from Benalmadena had placed the advert so Terry decided to place a denouncia against this Lady to get his money back, it now appears that the NIE number and the name are fictitious. 

Due to legal resons we are unable to name the persons responsible until the Police have investigate the matter although Terry says "I am not holding my breath"

NEVER HAND OVER CASH IN A CAR-PARK or MOTORWAY SERVICES

When looking at purchasing an IPTV box in Spain, we would recommend that you follow the following steps to GUARANTEE that you do not have any issue with your new IPTV BOX. 

1. GET A RECEIPT OR A FACTURA

2. MAKE SURE THE COMPANY IS SL REGISTERED

3. ALWAYS "INSIST" THAT THE IPTV BOX IS INSTALLED

4. NEVER PAY UPFRONT

5. ASK FOR A LOCAL RECOMMENDATION

6. ASK FOR A DEMO

7. ASK WHAT CHANNELS YOU WILL RECEIVE

8. ASK TO BE E-MAILED ALL OF THE INFORMATION

By insisting on a receipt or a factura you have proof of your purchase, and by using a SL registered Company you are able to insist on a CIF number that acts as both a Company registration number and the Companies VAT number (IVA) this proof of purchase not only acts as proof that you purchased your IPTV box from this supplier but also acts as Guarantee as all goods sold within the EU are now subject to a 24 months Manufacturers warranty by Law.

OK so lets assume that you turned on your TV and no longer have BBC1 or ITV and you have decided that you want to purchase an IPTV box what should you do? Well the first thing to insist on is that any Company that you approach should be able to offer not only a full installation of the IPTV box but also spend 10-15 minutes showing you how the box works as often some IPTV boxes are not as straight forward as using a SKY+HD box for example. When contacting an IPTV supplier NEVER agree to making any upfront payments and never handover any credit card details or make any type of payment until the IPTV box has been installed and you are totally satisfied with what you have been supplied and have checked that all of the channels that are important to you are working and that the picture is OK. 

It is no secret that many start up here today

and gone tomorrow traders are looking to cash in on the situation and will be looking to pull every trick in the book so make sure you insist on seeing everything working in your home. You are entitled to ask any supplier for a couple of local recommendations of satisfied and happy existing customers so ask, if you are told that this is not possible try another supplier. Always make sure you know who you are dealing with, can the supplier e-mail you everything they just said over the telephone by e-mail so that everything is in writing? This is a great way of protecting yourself further as it is another piece of evidence that in addition to your proof of purchase also confirms what the purpose of the product is and confirms what the products features and capabilities are, this is particularly handy when you run in to issues and the product becomes "unfit for purpose" as the product cannot provided the services and or channels that where originally offered by the supplier. 

Be specific with the supplier and ask exactly what channels you will receive and who will you be receiving the channels from as some boxes really on streams that are provided by private individuals and or Companies that upload the content for FREE and then can close down without warning. 

With many different options available and many different types of IPTV solutions available on the Market it can be confusing although if you follow our guide you are afforded some extra protection and will ensure that you are getting what you need instead of what they want to sell you.
