Last week it became evident that a new crackdown against IPTV providers based in the UK and Southern Ireland was underway.youtube.com In the first wave of action, a 41-year-old man and a 30-year-old woman were arrested in Bursledon, Hampshire, and detained under suspicion of offenses under the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 and money laundering.youtube.com The pair were accused of illegally offering content from companies including Sky and BT Sport. Soon after, four more arrests were announced in Southern Ireland. Two men, aged 42 and 45, and two women, aged 37 and 40, were detained following house searches in Crumlin, Dublin and Ashbourne, Co Dublin.
The law enforcement agency also noted that a warrant had been executed in Scotland but provided no additional detail. A statement just published on the official website of FAB IPTV, an IPTV provider known to operate from addresses in Scotland, appears to fill in the blanks. "On the morning of Tuesday September 11th a co-operation raid took place on one of the administrators homes whilst on holiday led by EUROPOL/Police Scotland and members from SKY/BT/Virgin/Possibly HBO and other Film/TV organizations. A number of devices were seized," the statement reads. "It is on that note we will no longer be operational and will come to a COMPLETE close.
FAB IPTV was incorporated in Scotland under the name FAB Hosting Ltd on February 22, 2017. A notice for compulsory strike-off was published on May 15, 2018. On July 30, 2018, the company was dissolved after filing no accounts. The service continued to operate but during August its operators advised customers that it would eventually shut down. "Unfortunately we are no longer accepting new subscriptions or renewals of current subscriptions due to closure. Any active subs will be honored until expiry," the announcement noted. With some of FAB’s customers having purchased subscriptions that are yet to expire, many are going to be out of pocket following the closure announcement.
Equally, resellers of FAB’s service, who will have invested much greater sums, will also find themselves in the red. However, FAB indicates that funds could be reclaimed. "I/We would advise that anyone whom would like a refund and are within 180 days as per PayPal limitations you should raise a dispute as we have zero access to any financial accounts associated with FAB," the statement reads. Whether former subscribers and resellers will choose to elevate their heads above the parapet will remain to be seen, but given what FAB has to say next, the option to cut their losses might be easiest for most.
"I/We highly suggest taking precautions if you have used your REAL information with us or any IPTV service as this is only the beginning of what is a huge fight against illicit services.youtube.com More information will come in due course no doubt on EUROPOL’s website and other IPTV related media sites.youtube.com Thank you for being loyal to FAB and stay safe," the announcement concludes. While it’s simplicity itself to fill in fake details when signing up to a service like FAB, many people use their real identities. However, the operator of a similar service previously told TF that they never check if names and addresses are real, meaning that people can fill anything in with no consequences. Finally, it’s worth noting that at least as far as TF’s previous investigations revealed, FAB IPTV and its administrators were extremely easy to track down and identify. Quite why such services operate with such a low level of security and privacy isn’t immediately clear but now the perhaps inevitable costs will have to be counted.
One of the highlight of this service is that you get a single IPTV package for 5 different devices at the same time. While most IPTV provider on our list will only allow to use the IPTV service for only 1 device for simultaneous use. 125 for 5 devices, with full access to live TV and VOD content. The channels on the Live TV was good with a good range of English and International channels, from Philippines, Middle East, Scandinavia, and everything. The VOD section has a whopping 2500 movies with over 300 TV serials. You also get the famous match center that has curated list of sports channels for every sporting event.
Also, we found the similar catch-up on the US channels that is available for the last 3 days to watch shows, which you have missed during the day. Again, we didn’t find any channels from the Canadian region, specially the French ones. We tried on the package, and we loved the quality of stream provided. Most of the streams were high quality, with great UI and EPG section. But, reliability is a big stream on the Vaders. Most of the channels we were watching kept going down multiple times, and this made it quite un-watchable during peak timings. The channels were quite snappy to load with bare minimum streaming. The sporting section was the highlight, where you get to view a complete new and upgraded section for every sport lover.
We got an update that Vader is working on their hardware to ensure that the streaming does not fail in future. For now, reliability-wise Vaders has failed. Feature-wise Vaders is a great IPTV service provider. They have been in this industry for over a decade now, and have been quite active in the industry. You can opt for the Vaders subscription through the IP2Box service. This is the only IPTV provider on our list of [https://happyiptv.com/iptv/ Best IPTV Subscription] Providers Canada that allows simultaneous streaming of content on any 2 devices. It mainly provides service to European region, hence you will get most of the channels, including English ones from the Europe region. Sadly, you get limited amount of channels from the USA and Canada regions. You do not get any Canada-French channels.
The channel collection again is complete with mostly concentrated to the European region. One thing that we loved is the VOD library that was massive, with latest movies and TV serials to choose from. The list is constantly updated with renewed content. The quality of channels were great and the service was quite reliable, all thanks to the offshore servers and advance load balancing features. We loved the streams, specially the HD channels, which were quick to load and stream with less amount of buffering. The channel switching to was just like the cable subscription, fast and smooth. The EPG setting as quite accurate and in-line with the actual settings.

We found IPGuys one of the most costliest IPTV provider on our list Best IPTV Subscription Providers Canada. 3 USD for a one day service. IPGuys has a huge collection of North America channels, so you will get a good collection of USA and Canada channels.
However, what we didn’t like is the quality of channels. Most of the channels were completely downsized at standard definition. The quality of every channel was simple sub-par. We didn’t find a single HD channel here. What we liked was that the streaming was quite stable and very reliable. The service was smooth with descent video and audio output on the apk app or using the STB feature. Though you get limited amount of channels, plus the pricey IPTV subscription, you can still try to IPGuys service through IPRocket. Again the website is quite confusing with the web hosting setup, and you do not get any information about channels, guides or any updates. You will have to try out the support too, which we found was quite disappointing, and they feel every customer is a reseller. Set TV is no longer available and has pulled its service down.
Set TV is the poster boy in IPTV service provider with most YouTube influencer supporting the service. The UI of the Set TV is the main USP of the service, and the brand itself makes a great impression for any person that is trying out the IPTV service. The website of Set TV is very modern and robust, and contains most of the required information, like, channels, account information, payment, etc. with superior live and 24 x 7 support, just like an international brand. The main focus of the company is driving customers to their portal to satisfy their content needs. US channels with good quality. The streaming quality was quite good, while it lasted.
The reliability of the SET TV was completely a joke. The channels were frequently going down, while the customer support was a bit of pain, filled with abuses and no empathy towards customers. They were running a business to onboard customers, but cared less for customers. You could access the SET TV through the app or through the browser. 20 USD, where you can connect more than 2 device for simultaneous connection, providing quality US content. You also get Adult channels on the Set TV. After SetTV, Gears TV is the new craze that has evolved in the USA and has grown as the most popular streaming service provider. USA, with a few local and regional channels to choose from. This service provider has a thin collection of streams from the UK and Canada.
So we advice to view the above list, in case you looking for channels from Canada or UK, and avoid Gears TV for now. If you enjoy watching USA channels and you are a sporting person, then Gears TV is the service you ought to buy. You get exclusive access to various sports channels like NFL, MLB, NHL, NBA, and other channels to watch various sport league games. Coming to the picture quality, we can say that most channels have an average stream quality. Most channels we found were in the HD quality, with a few popular channels in the SD variant quality. One thing that Gears TV is famous for its stream stability.
We can again assure you that the picture and sound are completely watchable, rather than spendind a bomb of dollars for the same service on your cable TV. Gears TV performs really well in reliability, and we did not face any downtime or server crash on their service. We also did not feel any sort of buffering on the IPTV service, even while watching popular PPVs like UFC. The streams have always been stable and clear. One of the another feature of Gears TV is that it is dependent on a third-party provider for the electronic program guide. Yes, Mayfair Pro is the name of the service that offers complete and accurate EPG service for a premium cost.
But, if you opt for the IPTV service on Gears TV, then you get the access on Mayfair Pro for free. Mayfair Pro is one of the best EPG feature for any IPTV provider in the market today. Our Gears TV apk loaded quite quiskly, and we didn’t face any issue while scrolling or accessing the program guide. The UI of the app was completely pleasant on the eye and was user friendly. All thanks to the adavnced EPG fetaure, our experience with the Gears IPTV program was very useful and conveninent on our Android TV box. With the Mayfair EPG guide, makes the Gears TV setup a deadly combo. 17.50 per month, which we feel is a very generous amount for a premium IPTV service that gives you a relaible service, with an accurate programming guide. The setup was completely easy. We preferred the install via the Android app, rather than using Kodi, since the APK file gives you a better performance. The installation was similar to any other android app. After the installation, you just need to add the Gears TV username and Password, as well the user details for the Mayfair Guide. This should set everything for you, and you should be ready to watch your streams. One of the disappointment with Gears TV is that you don’t get any VOD content. There’s no media content for any on-demand media.

IPTV offers users the ability to stream continuously and they can start playing any content instantly. It is a process referred to as streaming media. It is however important to note that IPTV is not limited to internet streaming only; it is also deployed in telecommunication networks that are subscriber based via set-top boxes for end users. It is also used to deliver media in private and corporate networks. IPTV subscription offers viewers the advantage of being in control of programs they want to watch ay whatever time they want to watch.
They are not obligated to watch live TV being aired as they can select programs randomly and this is something that is impossible with other TV media platforms.

With IPTV, there is no worrying that you will be late to catch up with your favorite show as you can replay it as soon as you get home at your convenience. It also offers various options to users.
