Re: Filmon no longer free!!
Is this a joke ? I switched on at 5pm Cyprus time and have been watching Filmon with no problem .
Re: Filmon no longer free!!
Don't use it myself as I use a streaming device, but Filmon did switch off after a few minutes saying my trial period is over...
This has happened a few times in the past, FilmOn did sort it out.

Great while it lasted, but its not the end of the World, for a few pound a month, well worth it.
Re: Filmon no longer free!!
15 euros a month, to be precise.

Re: Filmon no longer free!!
Its the main TV entertainment for expats here, no one likes to pay, but a night out in the cinema will cost more.
Re: Filmon no longer free!!
It works out about the same as the license fee!

Hi All
Try this http://fmovies.org/
Most things on live TV are on here 24 hours later - just type your requirement in the search bar and see what happens - Its also good for new release films normally on here before release in the UK and Mountains of old stuff - But make sure you get Fmovies.org as there are other sites with very similar addresses that do not work.

Re: Filmon no longer free!!
It is not affecting my two Mags, so far trouble free, may as well go for a Mag Hudswell, just as illegal as all the other streaming TVs on Cy.
As I posted FilmOn have tried this before, they gave up when they lost thousands of users, time will tell of course.

I wasn't aware that the laws of the land in the UK were voluntary if you didn't approve of where the funds went.

I give £145 to charities instead..where I know the money is better spent than lining the pockets of the fat-cat managers and the useless "snowflake" journos who inhabit Al Beeb.

I know no-one who bothers to pay this tax in UK these days..it's a joke!..stop paying it...see what happens! Write to Mustafa Sheikup-Al Beebi.com if you object to the tax.
The UK has one of the lowest tv licence evasion rates in Europe at between 5%-6%. So in fact 95% DO pay....

Re: Filmon no longer free!!
They are so hot on that I doubt anyone could evade. We paid ours the day we moved into this house but because it had been empty for a few weeks and no one had responded to a letter issued apparently after the previous tenants had advised of their new address we got a threatening letter advising us we were being investigated!!
Re: Filmon no longer free!!
I know alot of people back in the UK who have stopped paying, when someone comes round,( the BBC uses firms on commission to knock on your door), to collect the unpaid fee, just tell them to get lost..They have no right to enter your house..You tube will show you many such cases. a couple of friends haven't payed for years,
