Absolute rubbish. I enter a selection of favourite channels, they may be there for say 24 hours and then disappear. Any planned recordings are also prone to disappear. The box is part of a package... See more

Persuaded to "upgrade" by Talktalk. What a mistake. No record facility built in, only via USB and then can't watch one while recording another channel. Previous box had built in record and could watch... See more

Don’t waste your money

Don’t waste your money. My free trail ended in a day. Hardly no channels. Most of them are freeview channels. I expected more when I signed up

Great value TV box

Great box does exactly what I want especially given Premier sports and can use Britbox , which my TV doesn't support. You do need subscriptions to other services, but it's great how it shows them in recommendations.

I can not say I would recommend this…

I can not say I would recommend this service in all the time I had it when I went to use it it was an intermittent service that kept shutting down
Then from out of the blue got contacted to say my payments were in arrears so I cancelled the service and asked for a returns label as agreed after some persistance I eventually got them to agree the returns now not in a months time
I paid the bill I felt I never owed them got an email saying that I needed to return every thing which is fine TIL I read they even wanted the orginal box and after 9 months who has that
So looks like as the they state I’m gonna get a charge now for that too
Sorry but not the service I expected or was promised

Thank you for your reply unfortunately I have repeatedly contacted you through your chat and you still have not resolved the issues
The payment you took was on the 17 of the month then ever month after on the 8 th do yes you have taken an extra payment because I’ve already food you for 17 of this month TIL the next but you also required a card payment for it too so I think you really need to look into your accounting side

Hi Sharon, Thanks for your feedback. our dedicated helpdesk team would have looked into the issue for you and offered a replacement if there was an issue with the device. Since payment for the month is due in lieu, when customers cancel, we let them continue to enjoy the service for the period they have paid before the returns slip is sent out. Please contact us on www.netgem.co.uk and we can look into this further for you.

Not very good

To be honest it's crap, the apps like Amazon prime will just stop working and close by itself or just stop and all you will see is a blank screen, sometimes I'll click on an app and it won't even load up then it will just take you back to the Freeview screen. No netflix on it, it's cheap for a reason and I'll definitely will be cancelling,

Hi Leo, sorry to hear you are not getting any freeview channels, You would need to connect your device to an aerial to receive Freeview channels. You can either use an external aerial or an indoor one. Please contact our helpdesk on www,netgem.co.uk if you require further support or assistance.
