Devilstreamz Reseller, be cautious.

Just had an IPTV reseller take off with my money, bought a sub on the 11th of October for 1 year. Reseller he Goes by name of devilstreamz on twitter and telegram. He’s blocked me on every form of communication I had with him and he’s removed me from his panel. Learned the hard way. Bearing in mind, Everything was going well up until now. Don’t know if it was just me or others too. But just be cautious. Crap too coming up to Christmas with a lot of sports scheduled on tv.

Don't trust them

I tried Beast TV twice for 1 month periods. after the second I felt I hadn't given it a proper trial so paid $40 for 3 months. 4 days later I hadn't been activated and asked why. I was told my payment hadn't been received even though my Visa had been charged 4 days earlier. I was upset and said cancel the account and return my $40. They said it was cancelled. When I then asked where my $40 was they said I had used it, even though they just had said it had not been activated.

There's no way I can find to get to someone higher (not surprised).

Be careful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IPTV BEST review

I decided recently to start testing some obscure IPTV providers, one's I didn't know in the hope of finding gold. Now this is tough in the IPTV world as many providers are the same but with different names and this is probably one.


CHANNEL SELECTION


  • IPTV Best probably has the largest channel selection I've ever seen from a provider, not only that but a lot of the channels are streamed in really good smooth quality. However I suggest you don't stop reading here because I'll tell you why in the next section. It has pretty much every sport channel and Entertainment channel you can think off, I'm not sure if they're based in the Middle East but they have a ton of channels from that region which are in full HD. It does also come with a lot of VOD although again don't stop reading because I'll get onto that soon.

CHANNEL RELIABILITY


  • This is why I can not recommend this service, since receiving it, it feels like it's never working. I tried to watch Liverpool vs Brighton on it and after doing well for most of the match near the end suddenly all the major sport channels stopped working, this was the case throughout the AJ vs Ruiz fight too. I found it really disappointing because the channels are probably the best quality I've come across yet they can't stay on for more than an hour. Maybe it's because they have so many, I don't know why they need tens of thousands of channels as not only does that lead to unstable channels but also horrible UI. Out of 10 I'd give their channel reliability a 3, it was really poor. I was trying to use it with a VPN just to make sure it wasn't just my region and the same thing, so this is a problem on their end.

UI


  • I hinted at this in the previous section, they don't provide an app just a m3u and EPG url. The EPG only seemed to work on Kodi for me and it took way too long for all the content to load. The EPG also didn't tell me what was on either, so trying to find an event you want to watch is almost impossible, you have to use a website to find out what channels it's being shown on then search the channel and pray it works. I just find it more of a pain than it needs to be.

PRICE


  • I paid about £10 for it which is about $12 maybe? Overall would I recommend this service? No, not until they fix their channels constantly dropping. There's plenty of cheaper providers who offer reliable channels, until they do fix this issue their service is basically useless.

Anon Streams is awesome

I saw a post for a provider called Anon Streams in the reseller section and the thing that caught my eye was “we accept bitcoin only”. That’s exactly what I wanted to hear. With all the companies getting hacked lately the least amount of my personal info online the better. I’ve been using bitcoin for awhile now on a recommendation from a very wise and paranoid friend of mine I got a hardware wallet and have been loving it ever since. So I saw their review last night in the resellers section, not much fluff pretty boring actually but did mention bitcoin only. Went to their website and saw that they recommend getting a ProtonMail account. Way ahead of them. Looked around and took a sub for a month for $11 I figure I spend that on hookers and blow before 8am so what the hell jk. I went with the Alpha server and the streams are nice and solid so far. Has a nice selection of channels that every other service has. I don’t have any need for international channels so as long as they have the usual channels from UK/US/Can and 24/7 and they’re stable I’m more than happy. They have a Discord for announcements and in there the list for the PPV this weekend looks amazing. Anyways the long and short of it is I’m impressed so far but tonight’s UFC will be a true test. If their NFL works well tomorrow may have to up my connections next month. They offer up to 5, doubt I’ll need that many but a couple for the rest of the TVs in the house would be nice. They have another package in there called their Delta server and it says VOD. Looks to be like an add on service may check it out as well. www.anonstreams.com

Heix Unexpected Payment Warning

Everyone on Helix knows the issues, but just as a warning, i had a payment taken out of my account in the middle of the night on a bank account i haven't used for ages for a sub that i let expire months ago (i can tell this by the value taken)

it was a web transact payment, so people be vigilant, i presume this is exactly why you should use Bitcoin for payments.

8 Answers

Vue Media - AVOID

They are amateur and cannot handle any kind of load. Never seen an IPTV service so proud to have an NFL game with 10 viewers and no buffering. Apart from me, of course.

Any prime time event is lucky to even load and if it does, there's continual buffering and looping.

Many channels SD, quite a few HD 50/fps though.

Obfuscate their Kodi code with base64. Hiding something?

They do _not_ offer an m3u. You can find it here: vuemedia .tv/api?action=portal - base64 it

Support is decent but they generally come across as "It works for me" and that's it. Rarely helpful. Think they're big men.

Promised a refund, but never sent. Personal email spilt all over the Telegram group "proving" it was sent. Then kicked out the group. They don't appreciate being told the service doesn't work. Who am I to think a support chat was about getting support...

I would test for a day during something that's expected to draw in a lot of viewers to make up your own mind. Or don't. It's not worth wasting your time.

TeleDuNet Arabic IPTV Mixed Bag

So I used TeleDuNet for a year subscription in the past. It was like 30 euro, so no big deal. I recently signed up again, for their "lifetime" service for 2 connections (80 Euros) and while it took a week to get setup, service started off just fine then the xtreams thing happened and ever since then - the service goes in and out. I would say it has an uptime of 90%. 10% downtime is pretty significant... sometimes the service will only be out for a couple minutes or hours, other times for an entire day, then during good times, it will be up all week with no issues. However even when it's up, some channels are always down - they don't always update the channels with new working links, even channels that have direct free public streams.

This "lifetime" model that a lot of Arabic IPTV streaming services operate on makes no sense to me. For $100 I think I got two connections worth $50 each. It's not the best, but it works when it works.

I am able to reach them via whatsapp, they recently changed their number, luckily they published the new number on their website, but it may take some time for them to respond, sometimes 30 minutes, sometimes 6 hours.

I am writing this review so others will know what kind of service they are getting when/if they sign up.

Update 03/28/20: Service has been pretty great lately.

Siptveu Vs helix

2 providers review in the last 6 months , siptveu.com ( iptv provider not the iptv app siptv.eu ) and helix hosting

Helix was my main provider , used it on all devices , home/office/mobile ext.. there streams were stable there support was great , but there first big wrong mistake was removing credit cards payments from there site , this was a big NO for me but again they were the best in quality , but suddenly after the xtream codes issue they started to loose it . Bad streams , offline channels , never reply to support tickers , website offline , closed there twitter account ext... but recently i heard that they are getting better every day and recovering so i might wait few weeks and try them again ...

siptveu.com were my backup providers , good quality , good support , few channels offline , almost no lagging , but i always gave helix more credits , but after helix bad service siptveu became my main provider , and they were least effected by xtream codes problems , in the peak of the problems they stayed online with at least 40% running , other providers were 20% to 10% , now they are back to 90% , and the most important thing there customer support never stopped from being good . They are my main provider since xtream codes issues , they need to work better on there EPG but in general for me now they are one of the best

With helix recovering and siptveu.com is working good for me i might keep using these 2 providers for some time .. dunno till when iptv will be a good choice specially after the xtream codes take down and the info is blocking mag devices , but every penny i save today on cable is worth it .

CloudsPal hosting : i use 3 to 4 hours a days specially during games , stable streams , good quality , few minor issues but were solved by there support . they have a good customer service , and also have catchup . In general they are gr8 need to work better on some epg countries like india/cariban

gen tv : i use it 1 to 2 hours at the office , most streams are stable , during games it suffer some buffers but in general they are good , they need to work better on there customer support and get back channels that went offline around a month or 2

i think its worth trying these providers , am extending my SUB with cloudspal hosting , gen tv will stay for the office use for now , later i might switch and stay with 2 lines cloudspal

Ultratreamz review

I've been a victim of using a service and then having it snatched away

First it was Vader's. I had them for over a year and then poof....gone overnight.

A week ago, it was gearz so I've been on the hunt for something different.

People told me to try helix and I did - buffer city. Actually I tried a bunch and none were very good, so I just kind of gave up

Yesterday, I got a notification that someone posted about ultrastreamz. I saw some decent feedback, so replied and the owner (I think) , shot me a message and set me up with a day long trial

Short story - I'm sold. I found my new IPTV. full stop.

Long story - the channel line up is solid for what I need - mostly US channels and sports. Cable news , UFC and boxing are my hot buttons.

Things you might want to know

Setup - it was easy. He gives you instructions to download an app. I had it set up on my shield with a channel playing in under 5 minutes.

Price - I saw at least one person whine about the price. It's like $20 for 2 connections ( I believe).

My reaction to that is.....really? There are dozens of $5 and $10 IPTV subs, but most of us know that the quality and support for most of them isn't very good

I'll gladly pay $20 for HD quality , little buffering, good service , etc

Features...

EPG - this is the only thing I was a little disappointed with. The layout is organized neatly and channels are easy to find, but I prefer the Mayfair type of EPG . Its possible I'm missing something because I didn't tinker with settings at all.

Multi window - I didn't mess with it much but seemed to work like it should

Recording - again, I didn't mess with it much, but I selected a show to record, gave permission to access my storage and it seemed to work like it should

Catch-up - from what I could see most channels had 2 or 3 days of catch-up available, which worked flawlessly for me on the channels I tried

Sports - wide variety and the ones I tried not only worked , but were great quality.

Service - I sent probably 4 different messages with questions and each time was answered in 10 minutes. He told me I'd be set up right after 1 and I was

Payment - I still can't figure out how to easily but crypto like Bitcoin , so the fact he accepted cash app,venmo,PayPal and some other methods was a big plus for me

Bottom line - if you want to troll the review sub all day trying service after service, you can do that.

If you would prefer to just pay and then watch quality streams without hassle? This is a great choice.

Disclosure - I'm not a reseller trying to trick you into buying something. Before yesterday I didn't know the service existed and I have NO relationship with the provider personally or otherwise.

I give reviews for people who are like I was - new to the scene with little knowledge so they don't get scammed and taken for hundreds of dollars from scammers messaging them about their super duper deal and then disappearing or downloading app after app and paying $10 after $10 only to learn your buying the same crappy service from different resellers.

In going to provide a link to this review to the provider so that he can answer technical questions

I of course would be more than happy to answer questions about my experience with the service

EU Sports Perfection #1 - First Edition

The brilliant u/aybesea has been regularly updating his US Sports Perfection over the last few months, but I thought I'd have a go at replicating that for the EU. What's important to me is having multiple sources (or different channel options) for the non-US sports, so we're talking Soccer, Tennis, Golf, Cricket, Rugby, Motorsport, Darts, Snooker, Boxing. These need to be at the very least in HD and also easy to find (so that means well-named categories and great EPG). I now have a family to worry about, so catch-up on some of the main channels is important during the big events!

I have no interest in VOD and it's a real concern to me that lots of providers are sinking their time into providing VOD when that time could be spent improving their main service. That being said, a sports VOD is always welcomed.

Like u/aybesea, this isn't about finding the cheapest set-up, but instead is about finding a combination that allows me to sit down whenever I'm free and not have to worry about whether or not I'll be able to watch what I want.

I'd like this thread to become an ongoing discussion where you can share suggestions on how I can achieve EU Sports Perfection.

--- MY CURRENT SET-UP ---

Nvidia Shield

TiviMate Pro (I had previously used PerfectPlayer but TiviMate has really come on and is now my favorite app)

500mb Broadband that hasn't been subject to any blocks (yet!)

--- MY CURRENT MAIN PROVIDER MIX ---

Helix

This has been my longest running provider. I'm going through a reseller which seems to offer all channels for slightly cheaper than the main site. They mostly stayed up during "The Troubles" and have multiple sources for most sports channels. While I can't scientifically confirm this, they also seemed to be the provider that had the 50fps BT Sports streams available most often. Some criticisms of them is that their channel offering is so large that the channel list and EPG takes a while to update when opened and also the existence of "VIP" categories is a bit confusing. Are these better, more reliable streams? Very often they're the exact same source as the other categories!

Jarvis

I realise this is a Prime reseller, but I want to specifically call-out Jarvis because the support has been the best I've come across in the IPTV world. I originally brought Jarvis in as a back-up service but it has probably got the most use since things have stablised in the last few weeks. Their PPV/Events section is the biggest I've seen. I can sit down at any hour of the day and there's usually something live on! It may be sprint car racing on some dirt track, live streamed from an iPhone, but seriously, inject that shit into my veins! Their EPG works for all the ESPN+ channels, which is a massive timesaver as the ESPN+ 60fps streams look far better than the UK 25fps streams. My biggest criticism of the service is that the Sports channels are just lumped into the one category and the EPL is bundled into a much bigger group containing rugby and all other football passes, making it more difficult to find what you want.

--- THE BACKUPS ---

DarkMEDIA

Currently evaluating DarkMEDIA and don't have many complaints. They are UK/EU focused, so all the main channels are there and the EPG is structured in a way that makes sense. The streams are stable but it does seem to be lacking in the ultra-high quallity steams department, with a lot of the steams being 720p at 25fps, when I know there are 1080p @ 50fps streams available. Without knowing how this works behind the scenes, I can only assume that there's an added cost in providing these 50fps streams or they may not be as stable, so they aren't provided. They recently just announced they're not doing 6 or 12 month discounted subs any more. I can understand why, given the volatility of the IPTV industry now but when you're using mulitple subs, it's nice to know you're getting the best price.

STV

Honestly not sure if this is actual name of the service, or whether that's a reseller, but I recently just signed up to this. Channel list is structured similar to DarkMEDIA but there's not just a focus on sports so there's a lot more on offer. The Sky Sports channels are in a separate category, which I find to be a bit odd, but it's been stable so far. One nice thing is that they have a Sports Schedule channel that cycles through upcoming events and the channels they're on. A long way away from a match centre, but does at least save you having to either look up a website/app, or a Telegram channel to see what channel something is on.

--- THE PAST ---

Vaders/CoolasIce - I had subs to these at separate times but they were my happiest IPTV times when combined with Helix. I would just have their MatchCenter/Sports Centre categories visible as my main playlist and then have Helix as the second playlist in TiviMate. Everything I wanted to find could be easily done through the match centres, and if sources there were offline, I would go to Helix and find it. RIP!

Beast - Too US focused and had lots of buffering issues. You had to watch their Telegram group like a hawk to know what was going on.

Beams - Had two separate trials with these but both times I was getting horrendous buffering

SmoothStreams - The provider I really wanted to work! Best EPG in the business and everything covered. I was using this with SmoothProxy but was always running into buffering issues, regardless of what service I was connecting to. Account lost with them now but if anyone has an invite, I'd love to start up with them again.

--- PRICING ---

The current set-up is costing around €29 a month. I go for 6 month subs where available where there's discounts. Means I don't have to pay invoices every month and because I'm not relying on a single provider, if one disappears with my money, I may be out of pocket, but at least I still have some other provider running.

--- NOTES ---

Most providers now provide some kind of channel updates in their Telegram/Discord with a breakdown of the sport that's live over the weekend. This is at least something, but I just use http://sport-tv-guide.live to quickly find multiple channels.

The Holy Grail provider will provide a Match Centre i.e. a seperate category of regularly updating streams of what's live right now. Vaders did this best, with multiple streams per event and CoolasIce followed this quite well but only had one stream per event and that was often down!

One of my biggest struggles right now is that even after hiding the groups I don't need, it still looks messy with 4 playlists loaded. I have a sub to Xeev, but consolidating and merging here is giving me mixed results. Especially because Xeev only refreshes once a day! Does anyone else consolidate multiple subs into an easy to understand way?

As a rule of thumb, I don't do 24/48 hr trials. I take out a 1 month sub, integrate it into my system and then see how it performs as part of it, without necessarily going out of my way to use it. This means that things like EPG accuracy and well structured categories suddenly become far more important.

-- THE FUTURE --

If you know of any services that could help with coverage and a great EPG, let me know and I'll add it to my list.

Orion IPTV Review

I had been a using a service for awhile that was recently shut down this week due to ignorance, but that is here nor there. I never really looked into any other services because it had everything I needed.

I stumbled across a comment from a reddit user, suggesting Orionteam and its services. I was hesitant at first, because I had been stuck with one brand for awhile. While mixing in the noobness of myself, when i became frazzled of trying to figure out what was what, I reached out to the user orionteam1.

Very polite person, helped me with all my questions, even the really bad ones.
Starting off, privacy is great. Average price for service, depending on what you are looking for, from 10-20 dollars. Also offers a trial period. 100% crypto, which I prefer, no being lazy with paypal. Site is discrete, and simple. Once I paid for my services (no more than a 15-20 minute wait for the blockchain) I began setting up services. Emails where not complicated, and gives you several options to choose from. Even if you are a noob, it tells you the best apps to use with the product. TV streaming is smooth, and really loved the option of being able to pick US only. Quality is supreme, no buffering.

I decided to also upgrade to the addon package for movies. Has everything out, and some. Great 4k selection, has everything I was looking for, from new releases, to classic war movies. If you have any specific questions, please feel free to reach out, and I will answer what I can, but orionteam1 is the user to talk to for assistance. Overall outstanding service, and customer service. I dont know if I am allowed to post the website, but its orionteam.net

Review of One Vision

Had this service about 8/9 months now. It's been awsome so far. All the normal channels, it also includes around 600 24/7 channels, 600 (including some old classics to help me relive my youth lol)

The support available is great, super quick answers to any questions on there.

What was really impressive was the regular updates after the XC raid. I know from seing on here that some services didn't keep people in the loop with what was happening. This one was consistently telling everyone what was going on and what stage they were at when switching panels ect. Service is (and has been for a little while now) completely back to normal.

Busy times are the same as any other times quality-wise. Very very occasionally buffers, but we are talking very minimal, and also - find me a service that doesn't! 3pm games always on and are also very easy to find. Club channels too for pre season friendlies ect.

Prices are very reasonable, especially compared to some other providers, cheaper if you buy longer ect ect. Overall I would highly recommend. I had a back up service to begin with but cancelled with them a few months in as I never needed to use them.

Content: 10/10

Price: 10/10

Stability: 9/10 (as good as it gets for IPTV)

Support: 10/10

Video Quality: 9/10 (as good as it gets for IPTV)

Had service for about 1 year and some change. Here what I have to say.

Going to break this review into a couple of parts. First I'll talk about service, connection and buffering. The next will be quality of channels. and finally my conclusion.

Service/Buffers

So being with this IPTV service for more than a year I've deal with smooth and quick transactions. The people were immediate in response when it came to any questions regarding my connections or issues. In the beginning of the year of subscribing I've had some issues with buffering but that was due to them being new and setting up their infrastructure. It has long been gone since seeing any buffers. Last buffer I had was watching the last UFC fight over the weekend and it was very minimal. Only happened once.

Quality/Channels

After running through many different services and dealing with shit quality I've finally found this one that's been true quality. All USA and Canada channels were HD, crystal clear, and the other channels around the world were to be expected. Some good, some bad, but I rarely even used those channels. Pricing for the service isn't cheap compared to others but honestly the service has saved me money. I bought the 6 months plan with multiple connections for $200. Was skeptical at first about price but they haven't let me down.

Conclusion

I've been a happy camper since I got it and don't think ill ever look back or look for another provider. I've use so many others that just don't even compare. I'll leave it at that.

I tried out SubscribeTV tonight. The guide for the US channels was not working so I emailed for support. The guy gave me the standard and clear your data and cache response. I did so and it still didn't work. I responded with a screenshot of the guide showing no data.

I was ignored so I posted a short review on IPTV. The guy responded calling me a troll and cursing at me. I don't understand why he was so angry but that's the response that I got. Needless to say I would suggest avoiding SubscribeTV.
