BBC Worldwide LimitedReviews of britbox.com

One of my daughters gave me Britbox today and I was a bit disappointed by the content but the main thing was that it sticks on my android box. I can’t use the letters A-Z to search for programs so would have to know the name of the program I wish to watch. Browsing is limited because of this problem.

Have subscribed to Britbox fairly consistently over the last several years (mostly through standalone, but also by Amazon and Roku). Initially it was a small streaming platform in the US that finally offered us the ability to see some of the good shows from the UK. Although choices were a bit limited they did send out periodic surveys regarding content and asking for input. Fast forward a few years and they have tons of content, but most of it is garbage. Few newer shows, tons of reality shows and stuff from the 1980s, lots of old garbage I can't imagine people would want to watch. I have been so disappointed that I now now only renew my membership to continue viewing new seasons of Shetland and Vera. I have found that PBS Passport is far superior in cost and has a huge variety of shows offered not just from the US and the UK but from countries across the globe.

Britbox har et domæne der hedder britbox .com/dk/ og det må betyde at det er streaming målrettet danske kunder. Har skrevet til dem om man kan være sikker på danske undertekster på al streaming. De svarer at det kan man ikke. Det synes jeg er er et rigtigt dårligt udgangspunkt for at gå på det danske marked & har i første omgang valgt ikke at blive kunde.

I signed on for a trial with Britbox and cancelled my subscription before the trial ended, Britbox admit that this was done. But for the last four months they have been taking subscriptions from my account. After a lengthy correspondence they have announced that I shall have to sort it out with the bank!

Now there’s clear technical competition to review how streaming should be, BBC is simply by far the worst offering. Netflix, Prime, ITV Hub, Four, Now, Rakuten, YouTube all work with minimal technical hitches. I watch BBC with bated breath wondering how long until the spinning circle and then “Something went wrong....”. I’ve no bandwidth issues. Everything works except BBC. Dire.

I paid the annual fee for Britbox because it has all the old British comedies and murder mystery programs I enjoy. 5 weeks in, I suddenly can't get any programs working. Ridiculous. I bet they won't give me my money back now they have it either

I received an email with a special offer of 40% off...I checked box where indicated and sent. I could not get the channel so emailed them. They responded saying I was not listed anywhere in their system yet I had been receiving emails from them. They said no email address in system and Questioned if I had correct Email address. After numerous times of telling them my address was same as emails they had been sending me I decided to end my multiple correspondence to them.

Watched episodes of Vera two nights running. On both occasions the programme froze with about 4 minutes left, just before the final scenes. No it’s not me, my broadband or my TV, it’s rubbish technology and I for one have had enough.
