Crossy Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 OK, after some confusion, largely initiated by myself (sorry), here's a new thread to discuss the issues with 365Sport and ExpatPremium TV . Original (now closed) thread is here for background. You may quote from the original thread but please let's keep to discussion of 365Sport and its potential replacements (yes we know about Kodi).

Phuketshrew Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 OK - So now we can get Expat TV (albeit with a few channels missing from the original lineup), which is really nothing more than the freeview channels one would view in the UK ... and we are being charged 8400 baht per year for the 'service'. So what about ExpatPremium TV? This has also disappeared into the ether and the web site was registered to the same server as 365Sport so this would seem to indicate that it was run by the same outfit. A few days ago it was mentioned that ThaiVisa were following up with Expat TV for an explanation so why has there been no response from these guys here on the forum? It seems to me that the whole business was being run with a business model of not paying out for any services (Sports, Movies etc.) yet charging unwitting subscribers for these services. A nice little earner while it lasted but always destined to go t!ts up at the expense of subscribers. Anyone else feeling like they have been conned?

Crossy Posted May 16, 2017 Author Share Posted May 16, 2017 700 Baht a month for ThaiExpatTV is rather less than you would be paying TrueVisions for significantly less content. Reasonable value for maintaining my sanity. I never subscribed to either of the premium packages having no interest in the channels, but I fully side with those who did and feel hard done by. As yet we don't actually know what has happened or whether the service will be back, but it's not looking good. Ethical businessmen would provide (at least partial) refunds. We shall have to wait and see I'm afraid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst no catchup or EPG the couple of streams I tried (SkySports) seem to work reasonably well (on my phone). And it's easy to drive. I wonder how it will do during the EPL matches when the authorities are (allegedly) killing off streams as fast as they appear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jai Dee Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 If you have an Android device (which one of my neighbours has) try NetLiveTV. He uses it to access all the Australian FTA TV channels as well as the UK streams. I haven't tried it personally as I use Kodi, but he swears by it. And it's free... /Edit: here is a link if you want to try it out. I don't know if it's the latest version though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalchromakey Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 So with 365Sport now apparently permanently t...s up (3 months outstanding subscription 'lost' for me), where/how in Thailand can I get Sky F1 HD with a decent catch up/on demand service (72 hours minimum, as 24 hours is not enough for me personally)? btw, I am not interested in getting True, as their service is now utterly useless, representing a massive rip off for what is a truly lousy service, plus I really don't enjoy Fox's F1 'studio team' at all.

PulseTV carry it, and all the Sky Channels plus C4 which has some F1. But catch-up is only 24 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During EPL games Mobdro sports are not accessible in the UK, as I can read on the private Kodi groups, but outside UK no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from the limitations of my own internet speed I've never had any problems. Only Fox Sports doesn't load but all the Sky movie, sports channels are ok plus BT Sports, ESPN etc. Advertisers pay for Mobdro plus there is an option for paid subscription to remove the adverts, which are few and far between anyway, much better than FilmonTV which I believe is ending free subscriptions anyway. As for KODI you now need at least andoid 5 to run the latest 17.1 version. I bought a Beelink GT1 box via Lazada and works just great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From their website, it looks like 5,100 for one month plus a set top box, then 833 pcm (10,000 THB) with a twelve month renewal. Don't really want to waste money on yet another set top box, do they have a standalone PC version? Can't see their free trial on the website either.
