This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

This company sold a tv adapter promising the telecast of International channels (Sports and Asian Channels specifically) through internet streaming. They informed that what they were doing is absolutely legal.
Since 4 days of my purchase of this product, none of the channels are showing up as promised.
They said that they have a return policy of 2 weeks, and I called up the agent who sold me and the customer care. Customer care says that they don't take it back and refund my money, and needs to be returned to the agent. Agent says the Customer care is bluffing and he cannot take the product back.
Also, for channels not streaming they inform that they or their product is not accountable.
I feel ripped off by this company's product. Their product cost is $250 (One time charge).
Need government to take some quick action against these crooks as they are fooling a larger crowd by selling this product.

I just returned mine to the agent today and told him it's a scam to his face. He only gave me 230 USD for it and I paid him 260 the day before! Scammers! Your agent is lying - just take a cop to his store and he will gladly return your money like mine did.

I completely agree, Jadoo TV is a complete rip off, with "no audio" quality of subsriptions channels such as Star Plus, worst of all there is "no Zee Tv" to be found nor a WMV weblink to be found, and my family for the most part, love Zee Tv...Buyers, please be aware, don't purchase the Jadoo Box, it's a complete wastage of time and resource, instead one can go for Dish Network, Dish Network IPTV, or Direct Tv...

This is an illegal product that allows to stream channels for free.
I urge the government to take action against these kind of products.
This should be banned as soon as possible.
Please consider my comment as an awarness to the govenment.

jadoo tv 3 is a fail product because the owners are greedy and sending big files of ads what makeing streaming box proceessor slow and causing freezing or not streaming you notic, as soon you change channel, an ad always play on your screens but no tv, because it is Jdoo tv greedy owners and staff who fill up the box with ads and no place for streaming.

I think someone needs to take action, they need to obey the law of the land and leave the dishonest practices of
Asia back in Asia. Per FCC even the old product Jadoo 1 and 2 should still be functional but they are not. If people stop buying, they will automatically will go out of business.

They purposely disabled utube search and On demand selections on Jadoo 2 box just because Jodoo tV wants you to buy Jadoo 3 box and disabled utube and On Demand on Jadoo 2 the old version of box.
I hope the Owners will die and rot in Hell for ever. playing trickes with consumers shame on them.

Jadoo is stupid, you can get an HDMI cable and connect it to your laptop or computer and get free channels instead of paying for their stupid channels.

Jadoo 3 is also a rip off.. it buffered all the time and completely stopped working after few weeks.Called customer care and no one picks up the call and finally found four jadoo employees were arrested for illegal transmission of satellite channels http://zeenews.india.com/news/nation/gang-involved-in-satellite-signal-theft-busted-4-arrested_943837.html and no one ready to give my $300 back.. its just a paper weight for the past 1 week

From ZEE News India, I came to know that JadooTV was illegally broadcasting Indian TV channels inlcluding IndiaTV. Now they are busted in Hyderabad, I feel that JadooTV also involved me in fraud activity as I was watching illegally transmitted streaming. I am planning to sue, JadooTV. Has anyone any idea how to proceed with it?

Listen you are getting jadoo as you cannot afford dish network indian services. Possible buffering is your internet speed. I never had problem with jadoo channels unless the channels were down, it is like saying internet is down. What you are still going to complain you got ripped off. You are getting jadoo cause you are cheap like me. So shut up and stop complaining. MOve back where the hell you came from.

Jadoo Tv 4.
This is totally wast of money, almost $200.00. Jadoo Tv has few channel which no one want to watch. Some of them if you want to watch you need pay subscription fee, means not free. XBMC 14.2 is there but old version and you cannot update it. Right now XBMC 16 available for you. That means what ever Jadoo Tv comes with box that's it. No further millage for you. Jadoo Tv is a big time liar. One thing is for sure this box is good for Pakistan people. Because they have many working channels. But other people get big ZERO out of this box. Basically this is just Android Box. There is no point to spend $200.00 for this, anybody can get any Android box as little as $50 to $100 and it comes XBMC install with latest version. If you like later on you can update too. Jadoo Tv 4 completely a android box. Some how they just mastering the name to Jadoo Tv with all restrictions. On my opinion do not bye this or don't get trapped of there false advertisement.

This is the worst ever technology i have ever purchased, most channels are not being played as was promised by the company and most of the time the device keeps on buffering. I suggest other viewers, not to purchase this device and lose your valuable money as i did

Jadoo tv is indeed a rip off. I paid $279 for jadoo 2 and their programs worked only of off Youtube and Dailymotion. Once YouTube blocked content (probably because it wasn't legal), you could not watch any Indian programs on Jadoo. Now Jadoo 2 does not work at all. Called customer service and they say Jadoo 2 is not supported any more and they were trying to rip me off again asking for addition $149 to upgrade to Jadoo 4. What for? They don't have any content and are liars. Do not waste your money.

It's fixable using the uart pin headers when you rip open the jadoo. its simply a linux distro loading preconfigured server details. Yes they pushed an update so you'd go out an buy their latest device but did you honestly believe what they were selling you was going to be free for lifetime? wake up people. nothing is free.
