Britbox

This has a very large catalogue of British TV programs and movies, they've created their own content and you're able to find unaired episodes and content available nowhere else. I use this app way more than I use Netflix. I do have concerns about security since I my password was hacked, I now have someone watching my account in Kent and the only way to get rid of them is by totally deleting my account along with active subscription, watch lists and user profiles. Currently Britbox does not require additional password checks if you change the password, nor can they delete the other person using your account, so if this hacker decides to share the account with 5 other people I would effectively booted out of my own subscription, they can also delete my entire account or change it to their own email and password and there is nothing I could do but unsubscribe. Britbox have been totally unhelpful in this.

I contacted Britbox to tell them I can't view Grace on their network. I have a Samsung tv.
This occurred five weeks ago. They are aware of the problem and are still unable to fix this.

While it would be nice to see britbox succeed, their lack of service, untrained help desk, inabilities to accept credit card changes in the Canadian market and general ineptitude make them not worth your time or money.
Empty promises of call back and general attitude of "oh well" and " you have to understand" by VERY apparently abandoned and so, unconcerned people on the help desk show lack of managerial leadership and general dysfunction within the organization. Other reviews are bearing this out as well Looks like BritBox can't even be bothered to read their reviews. Too bad for them Don't use this frustrating and uncaring product from an organization that is disengaged.

Their service is awful. Programs, if you can get them, are great, but their streaming is awful. We have paid for Britbox for over a year. We cannot get it directly but finally figured out we could go through Apple TV. Now they won't allow it. Anything we try comes up with a request for us to try it free and follows with "unfortunately Britbox is only available in the US and Canada". We live in California and as far as I am aware we are a part of the US. IT is so frustrating I strongly advise against anyone paying for their non-service

I live in the states and really like to watch British TV. Of course it was great. New programs to me but quickly realized that new or newer programs are few and far between, says just added, but there's nothing new for weeks or mths. Is there a certain time of the mth that they actually add new programs? Adding very old programs is BS... its not worth the money

Got this with the 30 day free trial, which I thought was an extremely generous trial - now I know why. Simply cannot get it to work on either of my Samsung TV's, despite them being under 2 years old. I've got the app on one of them however it directs you to the site to input a code but there is absolutely nowhere on the site to input it and I've spent around an hour looking.

Works on my phone and tablet but the sound quality is so poor I have to run it through my speaker. I'll keep it for the trial but never would I pay for this, it is absolutely dire.

BritBox has a few glitches.
The first is that the streaming spends a lot of time buffering.
If you stop watching a show in the middle, the bird box will not take you back to the last show that you were viewing so you have to put everything on your watchlist
It would be great if viewers were allowed to leave reviews on individual shows. They have a lot of good content, but they also have an equal amount of stuff that I don't ever want to watch.

When I saw the list of BBC programs presented, I signed up with cautious enthusiasm. Too many unfulfilled promises. When I sign in, I get the same as any net surfer. I have to dig and dig to get back to any of my programs. No record kept of viewing. Then, on a number of good shows with many seasons, they have maybe one season or two. And many of the BBC shows I was hoping were buried somewhere in the jumble of snippets were never even mentioned. Only a very small part of the BBC library is offered. I'll cancel after 3 months and try Acorn. They seem a bit more forthcoming with what they have.

As someone else said the content is good, but the navigation is atrocious. I wish I had read the reviews before paying for a year... there is no refund. It doesn't caste, it doesn't show which shows you've watched, etc. sure hope it improves before my subscription is over.
