EpicStreams is bad now. My review.

by jmrd35

I subscribed to EpicStreams for 3 months through the tdshost reseller. I used the STBemu apk on an android box. The first three months were fine. A nice selection of HD channels and not too much buffering. So I subscribed for another 3 months. Since then the reseller has changed the portal URL 4 times. I have been having problems connecting to the portal. The channels are buffering much more now but worst of all: SKY AND BT SPORTS ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE! Apparently they might never be coming back. Considering I mainly watch sports that's a deal breaker for me.

If you are looking for a premium IPTV service look somewhere else.

I've been without EPIC now for a few days and no response from my reseller regarding this issue.
Won't be renewing.

Yeah I subscribed for 3 month and now I can’t access there portal and there community I cant access in Reddit it gives me a message that it’s either removed or set to private

Yeah, one of the best providers over the last year or so had been Epicstreams, but seems their days are numbered. They have lost sources for HBO, Sky Sports and BT Sports over the past month and the constant changes to their URLs tells me they are under heavy attack.

I still have an active sub for another couple of weeks, but I won't be renewing unless they stabilize.

I've been with them for a very long time. Subbed to Ultrabox over a year ago, maybe 2. The support from Mike on both FB group and on forum, since migration, is awesome. The selection and quality is awesome. I tested a dozen providers before them, and they were my choice number one.

But you're right. First, they had multiple server problems. Then, URL changes. Then, channels disappearing. And now BT Sport and Sky fiasco.

I still have active subscription until Dec and I'm sticking with them and waiting, but I already have purchased 2 backups, both working sooo much better on so many fronts (except customer support). I'm not mentioning names, so noone thinks I'm in any way associated but yeah. People that keep saying you need to have at least 2 subscription active at all time and switch between them, are 100% right.

Yup. now fireflytv who are my resellers are great. But the content is shit. kodi addon has crashed and wont start. Connection errors non stop on .apk and PerfectPlayer is all buffering and has been for a while. plus the 100 url changes. Was great now shit

Wow all the negative feedback here isn’t at all what my experience has been. Last time I checked two days ago HBO has returned to the channel lineup. For Sports I use Smooth Streams outside of the usual ESPN, NFL NETWORK and the like. With that being said, yes the URL changes were annoying however my reseller has communicated all of this very well. The downtime sucked, but even through all the changes this has still been the most stable IPTV service I’ve used aside from GEARS which has poor picture quality. Now that the finalized URLs are in place I haven’t one time had a buffer or down channel at least with what I watch. They have earned a loyal customer on my end. Hopefully I don’t wind up experiencing all of your issues. Just in case anyone is wondering my reseller is BP Hosting and the other services I have tried which are not as good as EPIC include Vader’s, TNT hosting which I still use for bedrooms(might change that though), GEARS, FAB(I enjoyed fab). Eternal. Epic IMO is the most solid service out of all.

Biggest problem is they've shut down the support forums. With how frequently they've been having problems, cutting off their customers like this is the worst thing they could have done. Where do we go now to report channel issues?

I just signed up for 6 months subs of ES via CryptoIPTV and Bam they have crashed and burned. No Sky Sport , ES are deleting my support tickets and $70 up the swanny - what a set of twats :0(

I started with out epicstreams from the exact same reseller. Worked fine for a couple weeks then the whole fiasco with changing servers ect... Didn't resub because of the whole fiasco and found out for what I was paying epicstreams I could get 2 solid iptvs for cheaper combined. In no way is my comment a shot at tdshost, the support he provided was good and always responded. I believe this is all due to the service 'epicstreams' shitting the bed and nothing to do with any reseller.

Sky and BT are going to come down hard on everyone, they are losing millions a month to this.

MRJSP

Was bad when I had it. Last month, didn't renew.

dkmfan

Just bought a package from them last night been 13 hours still no response from them

All good things come to an end.

What are the new URLs?

davebnly

I was on ES earlier this year and they were OK but i must have joined at the time when problems were starting. There was quite a lot of buffering then which was enough for me not to renew after a month and go hunting for better services. There truly is a raft of good services out there but you just have to go hunting for them if you want the reliable service with good support. The really good ones will stay quite under the radar and limit the number of subscribers. All of the really popular ones (ES, Vaders, etc.) are f***ed now.

Spewaged

That’s your opinion. I mean I like both. I only pay for the English channels on Epic. I prefer the picture quality and reliability of Epic over the other services that I’ve tried.

codold

Yup it's shit, I generally think it's all gone to shit now with Euros trying to close everyone down.

Never thought they'd win, but looks like they have.

dj_joeev

They redid all their servers and everything is working great with even better quality channels. I've been subscribed for almost a years through TDS . I mainly use it for sports and I'm never disappointed.

I just want to put it out there.....if you submit a ticket through your account...if you did not verify or use an email that is in the NO NO list (many email providers will block emails with URLs) our replies will not get back to you...and I really don't see how this is our fault...I deal with this issue on a daily basis...I work 15hrs a day in front of my computer to keep you people happy...can I do it all the time....no...things happen beyond my control...thats why its 14.00 a month...certain channels ( and I wont name them here) are back...ive also started caring 4 other services to give a broad range for different people.....so..before you bash...find out the facts first.

testunifi123456

so far test epic for few months look good. they are back and manage to find a reseller for epic. --> https://karlstream.blogspot.com/2017/06/karlstream-streaming-package.html

ask him for epic.

samditis

EpicStreams...sketchy service, thieves. Subscribed for 3 months, subscription suddenly expired after 1 month. Sent many emails, opened cases, sent copies of my receipt, no response. Nothing. Lesson learned. Been weeks now....moves on.

I was thinking of EPicStreams after having tried two other services. We want stable Canadian content especially sports and would love that to have LeafTV. Since your not happy with Epic and having read some of your other reviews where have you gone from Epic.
