How to run a fair UK comparison
- Request trials from two or three providers for the same evening.
- Use the same device and connection — ideally a Fire TV Stick 4K Max on Ethernet.
- Open the same five channels on each, including a live sports channel.
- Note zapping speed, freezes, the guide and the picture.
- Send each support team the same question and time the replies.
Red flags in the UK market
- “Fully loaded” boxes sold with the service — a legal and security risk.
- “Forever” deals for a tiny price — services like that rarely last.
- No trial and no refund policy.
- Payment only by bank transfer to a personal account or gift cards.
