Absolute rubbish. I enter a selection of favourite channels, they may be there for say 24 hours and then disappear. Any planned recordings are also prone to disappear. The box is part of a package... See more

Persuaded to "upgrade" by Talktalk. What a mistake. No record facility built in, only via USB and then can't watch one while recording another channel. Previous box had built in record and could watch... See more

This is a great little box
This is a great little box. All the normal TV channels, but Amazon Video, YouTube, and loads of online channels. It even hooks up with my Plex server, so I've got my music there as well. The app on my phone works like a remote control as well. Very clever!

Hi M, Thanks very much for your feedback and review. Continue to enjoy Netgem TV.
Happy Customer
This 4k netgem tv box is just what been looking for, all my favourite channels and streaming in one box, with having a old 4k tv, this box has exceeded all expectations, brilliant 4k picture, I have a sound bar, so great sound too.
Easy setup, and have recorded my favourite programmes on a 32gb usb drive, if you are looking for a hassle free 4k freeview box, then look no further.
Also Netgem have a excellent customer service.

Hi Peter, Thanks for your review and feedback. Continue to enjoy Netgem TV.
Rubbish, waste of money.
Not overly happy with this, they go on about all the programs blah blah blah, it’s rubbish, I can’t even add apps like Netflix, I downgraded from sky and got this pants box from origin broadband, it’s not the easiest to navigate, and not having an Ariel we have to rely on WiFi based programs, if you don’t have an Ariel please don’t waste your time on this, even the Amazon fire stick is better, cheaper and at least you can add apps.
I have also found the box to freeze often, it’s very laggy and the remote is also laggy and slow.
I will be cancelling this ASAP, sadly thinking of going back to sky tv.

Hi I was given a c50fvp tv for Christmas. It took a while to set it up and watch properly. I've also found out netflix is a big no. Can I ask why....... Also the leaflets in the box do not show the actual remote for the tv. No bass or treble adjustments. And no way I can add apps. Can you help with any of this. Pete

Hi Peter, It looks like your review is about Cello Tv and Not Netgem TV, You would need to contact Cello TV customer services for further support. Very sorry we couldn't be of much help.

Got the sound box on a so called upgrade deal through Origin as I already have my broadband with them. I was completely miss sold the package and led to believe the tv package was much better than it actually is. (Made it sound like it was going to be more along the lines of virgin/sky for a fraction of the price).
I already had freeview and all the smart apps via my tv so I’ve basically just wasted money and signing up to a ridiculously long contract!
I want out this contract but according to the contact you only have 14 days!

DON’T BOTHER!!
DO NOT BOTHER!
Bought this as it seemed okay for freeview tv viewing. After around 4 months I got a new TV which already had freeview built in so cancelled the contract with Netgem and sent the box back to them as they requested with DPD tracking to prove it. Although I cancelled they have been apparently trying to bill me for a year (without notifying me and with no way to take money due to cancelling) and sent me a random threatening letter with almost a years worth of accumulated billing for a service I haven’t used. Tried calling numerous times to find out how the hell they have come to this conclusion. But each call has led to an indian call centre voicemail, so I cannot even pay it off just to get rid of the threat either. Do not bother ruining your credit rating for this piece of rubbish!!!

Brought a NetBox
Brought a NetBox and it works fine , but every now and then you have to unplug it from the mains because it becomes unresponsive , it isnt plain to see on screen , lots of hidden stuff that means you have to be so smart to just watch TV , mine is connected to my virgin hub (wifi) which is 200mbps so should be fine but still updates are slow , the website is ok , whats on only shows a few things and when you want to check availability for a box , amazon says unavailable ... so they links are not updating or live...seems like netgem are only interested in getting you to sign after that your on your own.
