Depends on if they have put your supplier on their blacklist tbh, those 2 are the most proactive in blocking.

Just a thought are there any benefits to a VPN if everything works ok as mine does?
I'd use one for anything like this just as good practice tbh. They aren't prohibitively expensive.
Not all IPTV suppliers are affected. It tends to be the bigger ones. I assume small time suppliers don't get noticed.
The problem with some VPNs is they also suffer peak time usage issues.
I had one that struggled with so many people using it around 3.pm. The buffering from both the IPTV and the VPN made it unusable.
Windscribe Pro has been flawless. It's easy to use and setup. Works with almost any device and the app is straight forward. I leave it on all the time on my Fire Cube as there is no impact even during peak times.

Again it depends on whether your IPTV supplier has been put on their blacklists. Mine has for Sky and Virgin and they spend the most money on stuff like this so there is always the chance your day will come. Personally I'd get one just to be safe as you just know the time it will get blocked is when City have a corner in the 80th minute at 1-1.

Better off having the stream blocked at that point, as we'd most likely concede from a fast break by the opponent.Again it depends on whether your IPTV supplier has been put on their blacklists.

Tried logging in and it said something about a password compromise and enabling 2 step authentication. So I tried to do that and it said not possible and wouldn't allow me to log back in under oldhamblueWhat happened to Oldhamblue1 ?

Hi guys, I'm looking for a good, reliable provider, ideally working on PC, Nvidia Shield and Amazon stick/TV. My current one is pretty good, but recently a little less reliable and my sub ends at the end of this month. I would like a reliable, decent cost ideally with VOD too, (doesn't need to be cheap, but not silly) could anyone please advise?

In the UK we are living in an age of corporation police putting more legwork into copyright infringement than real crime, people in the UK have to be careful.
How much are iptv providers generally?
I got a firestick, watched a YouTube video to jailbreak it, installed kodi, googled some good add ons and added a few, the crew,ghost,daddylive, etc watched another yt video and installed turks uk.
What extra would you get from an iptv provider?
And yes I use a vpn, also have real debrid.

Unfortunately my iptv provider does not do tv replays but I get fabulous movie and sport channels together with US film and entertainment. so have a lot to be pleased about.
Thanks G.
I get most of what I want to watch outside of IPTV via utube or Cinema HD

I pay 25 quid a year with one provider and 10 quid a month with another. Never not been able to find any channel, series or film I've wanted and if that did happen I can request via Whatsapp and it's put on for me, no matter what it is. Live TV is flawless every time.
