FabIPTV Review

by danm14

Was with FabIPTV as a reseller of Flawless IPTV for a month and found them excellent, but switched to Peace Country IPTV when they started their own service as I was sure it couldn't compare. Switched back a month later to see what it was like, and soon realised how wrong I was.

Their service has been perfect, I've had practically zero problems with anything, haven't even had any buffering on 1080p channels (as long as I'm not doing anything else online) despite my internet connection being under 10Mbps. I very rarely find non working channels, and they're always fixed very quickly once reported. I've never found any problems with EPG data or mislabelled channels.

The channel selection is absolutely second to none especially as a UK/Ireland ex-cardsharing user, this service gives me access to almost every subscription channel (except +1s, international and adult - none of which I need) in the same quality as a certain UK satellite provider - there are only 6 missing channels and 16 channels which are available in HD on satellite but only in SD on FabIPTV (yes, I counted). The 6 channels are relatively unimportant but it'd still be nice to have the full UK satellite package.

There's also plenty of the free-to-air channels, and also the Irish channels available although I use FTA satellite and terrestrial too so I'm not best placed to comment. There's a massive selection of US and Canadian channels which all seem to work well and most are in great HD quality, including the channels for 3pm matches. There's a growing VOD library, some 24/7 TV show channels and catch-up on many channels, although I've never used either of these properly they do seem to work great.

I would definitely recommend FabIPTV to anybody. 10/10.

VOD has been a downer for me with Fab. I think that's the only thing they don't do properly but as the OP mentioned, it's a growing library and they are adding new things constantly.

I do wish they could update new TV shoes daily once they air on the TV. Vader does that and having 720/1080p/5.1 TV episodes updated daily is one of the things Fab should do, especially now that they are increasing prices.

Have they fixed their NBA live channels? It was buffering like a crazy mofo when I tried it a few weeks ago. That is why I've unsubscribed from them.

i have fabiptv and they are just "ok." I originally went to them during the express iptv fiasco.Their channels are growing, but I've noticed the buffering has increased quite a lot in the past month and their guides are going down and quite a lot of audio not syncing with video issues. I've had to report frequently on their facebook channel reporting page. What is really good is their webclient access. I use that more than I should. I also have Express iptv and since they made their comeback, I think its better and outperforming fabiptv at the moment. Zero buffering, and overall better choices of local gta channels in my area.

Nope do not agree with the op,s review above.

Fab has been poor the last few weeks. They are over subscribed these days & cannot cope with the demand.

You complain & they just make excuses that it,s your setup that causes the problem.

The streams are fine most of the time, but does has a habit of stopping and having to restart on big events. No big deal once or twice but Champions league final on BT Sports HD was unwatchable.

Their customer service is mixed I have found. They have a Facebook page which they tend to prefer to fill with sycophants of their service. One or two of the guys who represent them on there are quite helpful, but there is this one asshole who seems to blame everyone who dares to raise an issue. A bit of a let down really.

AVOID FAB IPTV. I paid fab iptv and they blocked my streaming account while they took money from my paypal account and sent duplicate invoice. Their support is bunch of thin skinned, cry babies without education. Totally incompetent outfit. Bunch of amateurs working from an attic, copy other providers and complain about DDoS attack and every kind of excuses. UK high court blocked them for stealing Sky, BT and other streams. Every week Fab have new support personnel, who are lazy to look into customer issues and have deplorable attitude. Totally unprofessional/improper when an admin post former customers private email conversations on their forum to justify that the customer is wrong. It is ridiculous. Customers are paying for Fab consumer grade equipment and for Fab employees minimum wages. Their admin keep questioning why everybody expect so much for their charges while Fab provide so much!!. Wake up. Customers expect customer service you moron Fab!! There are dozen in a dime service providers like Fab IPTV. With better content, better rates and better customer service. Fab facebook and forum is down frequently. During live sports, most channels are unwatchable. VOD are outdated series, old movies without EPG. Many catchup channels don't have files to watch content. Their IT knowledge is low. Flawless, Ace, Epic don't need VPN to watch EPL and they are light years ahead of Fab technical ability and attitude. I'm glad I got rid of these clowns. Most of their positive reviews come from users who are on their payroll.

So is Fab tv still a reseller of Flawless or do they have their own servers now?

I'm a bit confused with FabIPTV.

Their shopping plans has "Hosting plans" Are you hosting anything?

Probably the best service I have used. True HD channels. Etc. I hope they keep quality up and I will never even look at another service as these guys have been 100% solid for me.

I just got Fab the other day, and Echo as well. My first go with IPTV service. SO far alright I guess my. Anyone have the multiroom package? How does that work?

Treehouse has not worked at all for me. Do they usually work and just bad timing for me, or they usually down?

Was watching Outdoor network yesterday and it would have buffering issues after a while. I find the locals channels either were not available or quality isn't as good as others. Many movie channels didn't work. Entertainment category seemed pretty good. Food channel USA wasn't working last night. Also find sometime the name on the guide is different. Few I found were local news channel instead. Will see how it goes tonight. Haven't even used Echo much just cuz I'm leaning toward Fab right now. Signup process was easy and straight froward. Bonus that you get all the info you need right away.

Did FABIPTV increase their price from 9.50 to 10.45 when I wasn't looking.......or did I just not see the email. (same as "not looking"!!)
