DON’T buy a TopUp TV branded digibox…
I warn you, it’s a real mistake unless you plan to subscribe. We made the mistake of buying one without meaning to subscribe, and the programme guide just got smaller because there’s a new channel “TopUp Showcase” that is ALWAYS on screen. It makes me annoyed enough to want to destroy the box…
Worse, the software update has broken the recording library (which was never very good anyway). And the annoying adverts are driving me insane.
So I called them. And guess what? It’s in the terms and conditions of the box. Probably not strictly legal, as you can’t agree to them without opening the box, and you can’t open the box without buying…
Basically, they may be cheap – but they’re cheap for a reason. My advice? Dont’ go there.
