TERMS OF USE
These Terms of Use set out the agreement between you and PREMIER UKTV, so please take some time to read over them and understand them. By signing-up to PREMIER UKTV, you confirm that you are bound by these Terms of Use, including any changes to them or the PREMIER UKTV service in accordance with these Terms of Use.
WHAT IS PREMIER UKTV?
With PREMIER UKTV, you can subscribe to a MONTHLY PASS.
MONTHLY PASS
We may also refer to this as a ‘Subscription’ on our website and in our emails. This gives you access to our entire TV-on-demand, limited range of catch-up TV channels, movies-on-demand, TV-on-demand services for a monthly subscription fee.
HOW MUCH DOES EACH MONTHLY PASS COST?
There’s no sign-up fee. There’s a monthly subscription fee which you pay for each MONTHLY PASS when you sign up (unless we tell you otherwise), and then each month after that, until you cancel.
A BIT MORE DETAIL
Your debit/credit card will be debited on the day you sign up for any MONTHLY PASS, unless we tell you otherwise. You’ll get access to the relevant service straight away. You’ll continue to have access to your MONTHLY PASS, month after month, until you cancel the relevant pass. Unless we tell you otherwise, in most cases you’ll be charged on the same date every month for each pass.
Don’t worry, there’s no long-term commitment. You can cancel your MONTHLY PASS service at any time before your next month is due to start, and, when you cancel it, you’ll continue to have access to the relevant service until the end of the month you’ve paid for (i.e. your ‘usage month’) unless we tell you otherwise, but it won’t be automatically renewed after that. You can of course re-activate your MONTHLY PASS service on your account at a later point.
WHAT HAPPENS IF PREMIER UKTV CHANGES THE SERVICE?
From time to time we might make changes to the MONTHLY PASS service. We’ll try not to make changes without notifying you in advance, and we won’t make changes that materially disadvantage you during a usage month which you’ve already paid for (unless it’s for reasons beyond our control).
We’ll give you notice of changes which are likely to affect you during future usage months – we’ll aim to notify you at least 30 days before the start of the affected usage month, so you’ll have enough time to stop your MONTHLY PASS before the change takes place.
If you don’t stop your MONTHLY PASS after we’ve notified you and before the change takes place, and you continue to use the service, we’ll take that as your acceptance of the amended service.
WHAT HAPPENS IF PREMIER UKTV CHANGES THE SERVICE?
We might change some of or all of the service from time to time in accordance with these Terms of Use. If we change the services, we will give you notice on the PREMIER UKTV website.
WHO CAN SIGN UP TO PREMIER UKTV?
Anyone aged 18 or over living outside the UK can sign up to use PREMIER UKTV.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
There’s detailed pricing information is displayed on the PREMIER UKTV website.
GREAT, HOW DO I SIGN UP?
Signing-up is easy. Once you’re ready, simply go to www.premier-uktv.com to sign up and create a PREMIER UKTV account. Please read the rest of these Terms of Use before signing-up.
WHAT NETWORK CONNECTION DO I NEED TO WATCH PREMIER UKTV?
You need broadband Internet to stream content from PREMIER UKTV. You’ll need a fast enough line and an adequate broadband data allowance. To stream via broadband, we recommend a minimum 2.5Mbps connection – remember that your streaming rates depend on network load in the home and could be affected by other users using the broadband connection at the same time.
Obviously, you’ll be responsible for all costs charged by your broadband providers and your internet service provider. Remember that streaming audio-visual content can use up a lot of data, so if your broadband package doesn’t give you unlimited downloads you need to check that you have an adequate monthly data allowance.
WHICH DEVICES CAN I WATCH PREMIER UKTV ON?
From time to time we may publish a list of compatible devices on the PREMIER UKTV website. Certain services or content may not be available on all devices and we continually review device support and as new operating systems appear, we may stop supporting older versions. This means that to continue using the service you may need to update the software on your device from time to time. As detailed further in these Terms of Use you should ensure that any device you use to access the service is compatible with the service.
HOW DO I CANCEL/STOP GETTING A MONTHLY PASS SERVICE?
To stop the MONTHLY PASS service, you need to contact us. You can email us at [email protected]. Remember, once your access to the MONTHLY PASS service stops, you won’t be able to watch anything. If you stop the service, you can always re-activate it by contacting us at a later date, but we will charge you a small fee for doing so as published on our website.
Please see the ‘Your Rights to Cancel’ notice at the end of these Terms of Use for details on how to cancel your order in certain circumstances.
HOW DO I CONTACT PREMIER UKTV IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG?
You can contact us for any customer service reasons using the contact details set out on the PREMIER UKTV website. Or by email to [email protected]
HOW WILL PREMIER UKTV CONTACT ME?
If we need to contact you (including to give ‘notice’ as described in these Terms of Use), we’ll do so electronically, e.g. via email, via the PREMIER UKTV website, via a notification within the service or a notice ‘pushed’ to your device (or any other method we notify you of). Notifications will be deemed to have been delivered on the day they’re sent, provided we haven’t received a failed delivery notice (in which case we’ll send a notice via the PREMIER UKTV website (which you should check regularly) and they’ll be deemed sent the day after they appear on the PREMIER UKTV website). We’ll send notices to you using the contact details you’ve given us, so please make sure you’ve provided us with accurate contact details and keep us up to date if they change.
AM I RESPONSIBLE FOR IMPORT DUTIES AND TAXES?
If you order a Device from us, such as a PREMIER UKTV MINI RECEIVER, and we send this to you outside the European Union, you may be responsible for paying import duties and taxes in your own country. These fees will be payable by you direct to the importer or local tax authority. We cannot provide you with an estimate of how much this will cost you. And, if you cancel your order with us, we will not be responsible for refunding you any fees you have paid in relation to import duties and taxes.
CAN I USE MY PREMIER UKTV MINI RECEIVER WITH OTHER SERVICES?
The PREMIER UKTV MINI RECEIVER can only receive content provided by PREMIER UKTV. If you stop your monthly content pass, you will not be able to enjoy any content from any provider on your device.
A BIT MORE DETAIL
In these Terms of Use, and on the PREMIER UKTV website, “service(s)” means the services provided by PREMIER UKTV to its users which shall also include programme recommendations and newsletters “content” means the selection of on-demand content and linear channels that will be made available via the PREMIER UKTV services, and “device(s)” means compatible, registered device(s).
YOUR PERMISSION TO ACCESS THE SERVICES AND CONTENT
You may only access the content and some services while outside the UK. You may only use the services and content in the ways expressly permitted in these Terms of Use (as updated from time to time).
SOME EXAMPLES OF THINGS YOU MUST NOT DO:
Copy, rent, sell, reproduce, publish, republish, post, broadcast, frame, transmit the services or content (or any part of them), or make them available to the public, or authorise or assist anyone else to do so;
Make any direct or indirect charge for watching or using any part of the services or content;
Show any of the content or any part of the service in public to an audience, even if no direct or indirect charge is made;
Access or use the services or content for any improper or unlawful purpose or allow anyone else to do so.
CHANGES TO THE SERVICE AND CONTENT
The content will change regularly – that means on any given day, week or month, fresh and exciting movies, entertainment, channels etc. may become available (and other movies, entertainment shows, channels etc. will stop being available).
We may vary, replace or withdraw any service, feature or functionality or channel or content provided as part of a service at any time. We provide the services on an ongoing basis and we cannot foresee what may change in the future. This means we may make changes other than those set out in these Terms of Use.
It won’t be practical for us to notify you in advance of all content changes and instead you should keep checking the PREMIER UKTV website for details of what’s available.
We’ll try to avoid making any significant changes to the services which are likely to be to your material disadvantage, but, if we do so, we’ll aim to notify you in accordance with these Terms of Use.
Some of the content we provide is supplied by third parties. The availability of such content is outside our control and we may be unable to make certain programmes available via the service (including live channels) or we may be unable to show certain content on certain devices. We’ll use our reasonable efforts to notify you in advance (via the PREMIER UKTV website, within the electronic planner guide within the service or otherwise) about device restrictions and the unavailability of certain content. In addition, some features of the channels available via the PREMIER UKTV service may differ from the channels broadcast on other platforms. For example, features such as teletext and the red button may be unavailable.
In some cases, it might not be possible or practical to give you advance notice; for example, if an urgent change is required for security reasons, or due to a request or demand or threat of action from a regulatory authority or other third party, or the rate of tax changes, or for any other reason which is beyond our reasonable control. In such circumstances we will give you as much notice as we consider practical and we may, in our sole discretion, issue you with a refund or part refund for the remainder of the period which you’ve already paid for unless you continue to use the services or relevant part of the services.
DEVICES
You can only register one device to one Monthly Pass. You’ll be able to swap your registered devices a limited number of times (normally one device a month). See the PREMIER UKTV website for further details.
If you do not use a device provided by PREMIER UKTV and wish to use your own device, you must ensure that your devices meet the minimum hardware, systems and software requirements, as set out on the PREMIER UKTV website and updated by us from time to time. It’s important to note that you must not transfer content to any unauthorised devices or attempt to access the services or content via any media or device other than your compatible registered devices in the ways expressly permitted by these Terms of Use.
From time to time device manufacturers or the provider of the device operating system may impose changes that limit or restrict your use of PREMIER UKTV on that device. If this happens, we will try to notify you of these changes in advance, but as we have no control over these manufacturers and providers it may not always be possible to do so.
For security reasons and to protect the rights of our content partners PREMIER UKTV may not be supported on a device where limitations included within the device operating system have been removed or tampered with (this is sometimes called ‘jailbreaking’).
SECURITY
You’re responsible for the security and proper use of your log-in details and password. If you know or suspect that your username or password has been compromised, or you suspect or become aware of any other breach of security, you must tell us immediately, and you must also ensure that any such username and password is changed as soon as possible. If we believe that there’s been, or is likely to be, a breach of security we may suspend usernames or passwords and require that they’re changed, we may also restrict your use of all or any part of the service.

You will be charged €2 per month per device instead of the Monthly Pass, on the same day of the month. And this nominal fee will be taken from your nominated Card until such time as you terminate your Monthly Fee or ask us to un-freeze it.
