Does anyone know if either the BT or Talktalk Youview boxes fully work if you buy them used (say on eBay)? I'd like to buy one but want to be sure either or both would work. I have super fibre broadband so speed won't be an issue.

If you buy one second-hand without the relevant BT or TalkTalk subscription, then it will just act as a normal YouView box.If it sticks, force it.
If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.0 -
I bought a TalkTalk one off eBay. It works fine. Obviously I can't use the TalkTalk only features but I don't want to use them anyway. All the Youview stuff works.0

I had a bt you view box, but when i changed companies it would not work as just a youview and recording box.
My talk talk box works fine anywhere.0
