To avoid getting scammed, here are 5 tips to help you to choose the best satellite TV free online services. Please note that legitimate services will charge a fee, but usually will not charge a regular rebilling cycle.

1. Free or Paid?

There is nothing wrong with wanting to watch satellite TV free online. However, the problem is that free satellite TV website cannot always provide good quality TV channels.

Some free sites claim to have over 1000+ channels, but only a few work and there is not much difference of TV channels from one free TV online website to the others...and 1000 channels means nothing if they are all junk too, right?

Some free sites can only display a small image with no ability to increase to full screen. Some other websites offer pay per view TV online, but are very expensive.

Paid satellite TV free online software provides you with many TV channels as well as specialty channels free with a onetime flat fee of $49.99 to access over 5000 channels. Obviously, these are a better option in the long run and if you pick the right one, you'll get some great channel choices too.

2. Amount of channels available

Many of the free services (along with some of the paid ones) offer between 1000 and 3000 channels. However, if you look hard enough and are willing to invest around $50, you'll be able to find services that offer up to and beyond 4500 channels. Sure, many of them will be pretty poor, but having the choice is always a good thing isn't it?

3.What software is required?

If you want to watch TV free online, your PC should have at least a minimum Pentium 3 CPU, with processing speeds higher than 333 MHz.

For Free satellite TV online, you have no say of what type of software being installed and some may require you to install their software before you can watch TV online...which can be a pain and use up some space on your memory, but that's just part of the trade off to getting all this free tv I guess.

Paid services tend to come with more reliable, trustworthy software that are free from Spyware and Adware, so you'll remain protected. In fact, one such service even offers anti Spyware software as one of their bonuses, which is pretty reassuring.

You can watch satellite TV free online on most operating systems like Windows 95, 98, NT, ME, 2000, XP and Vista. That is practically all Windows Operating Systems.

4. Customer service and technical support

While most site selling satellite TV software and services promise a 24/7 technical support to tempt you to buy them, many are hardly around when you need them to help in technical support. Thankfully, there are a few reputable ones who can deliver an excellent level of after-sales service. It's hard to know until you've already handed over your cash, but usually you can test the water by sending an email to their support team and seeing how long it takes to get a response.

5. The strength of their refund policy

Many services that sell satellite free TV online software sites just want to make more money and sell more of their software. While most sites promise a 100% refund guaranteed policy within 30+ days, many sites will ignore your request for a refund.
