There are times when you would like TV on your computer.
The add -
Watch Over 2000
TV Channels From Anywhere in the World - On YOUR PC!
Throw away your
satellite and cable subscription service!
"Watch TV On Your PC" will work on practically ANY
desktop computer or laptop. So long as you're running ANY version of Microsoft
Windows, you're ready to go!
The name of the service - watchtvonyourpc
The rip off -
You can only watch the TV stations they provide, which if you wanted to do so
you could do by going to the web site of your choice and download the TV and use
any media player installed on your computer!
I am going to travel soon and decided that it would be nice to keep up with
the NASA space program while on the road. Some hotels and motels don't have all
the TV stations, just what they provide but a lot of them now provide wireless or
Wi-Fi for free.
I did a search and found three programs that said 'Watch TV on your
computer!' and over 2000 channels! Yup they were right in those two respects.
The program I am writing about is a scam. They only provide free TV channels.
They 'say' you can add your own channels by entering the url of the channel
provider.
It does not work. After a week of back and forth with 'Tech support' about
one channel BBC in the UK I decided I wanted my money back.
Not only they would not refund my money they blocked my request from Pay Pal
to receive my $14.95 back.
So don't waste your money on the watchtvonyourpc.net.
How I rate this service:
I give this service a rating of 0.
All the channels they advertise are free. None of the channels provide any
Prime Time programming. Most of the channels are either local government
channels of the 25 I checked it was just a logo of the channel.
When I tried to add NASA and the UK BBC channels to the program it came back
with URL not found.
After emailing the company's tech support for a week (having to wait at over
24 hours for a response (two were over 48 hours) and trying to determine what
the person was trying to tell me I asked for a refund. No response.
To get a refund I lodged a complaint against the company through Pay Pal.
They blocked my refund by escalating the complaint to my credit card company. I
will have to wait 75 days for a response from my CC.
Buyer beware!
Note: After the 75 day wait I have still not received my
money back!
There are two other services I may try in the near future.
