Swindon, but used to be Manila
Not so much a smart TV as a Fire stick plus internet (faster the better). I'm with Swindonseagull and on my third year. Did have problems but the supplier (who you have to trust having given them £70) has never let me or my mate down. Every FA Cup game was live over the weekend.
Thousands and thousands of users worldwide. Check website, discord, telegram if you wish to verify
Will stick with who I know and trust thanks.

I used Necro IPTV for a couple of years but they ditched their telegram group and went to a ticket based support system which made it bloody useless when it broke. They were really responsive to fixing issues on the Telegram group but responding to a ticket that a channel had gone down was no good a day later when the game had finished.

Moved from them to IPTV Rockers who have been ok but they told me when I signed up I could use the subscription over multiple devices which turned out not to be the case and it is locked to a single device.

Currently trialing Perfect PPV who appears to be quite stable and does support multiple devices if you pay a little bit more but a lot of the channels that claim to be full HD aren't. Fine when watching on the phone but not a 55in screen.

So if anyone can point me in the direction of a decent provider with HD channels that supports multiple devices (don't mind paying a bit more for that support) I'd be grateful.

I'm on the same as @swindonseagull and I suspect quite a few others with team "Gwi?"

I have 2 firesticks, one is Wi-Fi linked in the bedroom TV, the other is Ethernet wired in the lounge TV. The lounge one also has IPGhost installed should I need VPN but with Gwi IPTV Smarters this is rarely necessary. The only stipulation is that I'm only logged on with one Firestick at any one time. With the Wi-Fi one, it's easy to take with me somewhere else [friends / family] and tap into their Wi-Fi and watch the footie.

So I get to watch every Albion game, either on my 55" lounge TV or, if the missus is watching something in the lounge, I'll be banished to the 40" bedroom option.

I've found over the 3 years that the service is generally reliable, I'd guesstimate at about 95% problem-free. Occasionally I've had to contact the provider with a problem and these have been dealt with promptly in the main. I did miss one match where Gwi advised the server needed rebooting but he was out and it didn't become available for a few hours, but once in three years is about what happened when my Sky dish lost signal in heavy snow once.

Anyone else in team Gwi? Believe Bens Grandad [RIP] was.

If it's true that more subscribers dilute the service with overload I'd have to ask @swindonseagull to stop sharing his source .... you can all go and find an Arabic stream somewhere else ...

Here is a simple guide for adding IPTV to a firestick.
You will still need a subscription that is added at the end....( I can point you in the right direction)

Log into your firestick through your Amazon account
Go to settings > fire device > developer options > switch applications from unknown sources ON
Go to search (magnifying glass) along the top > Search for downloader > Click install
Once installed open it and insert the following url
http://bm5.co/smarters
Or
https://troypoint.com/smarters
Once that’s downloaded
Open.
Scroll down Accept.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Now you need to pay subs xxxxxxxxxxxxx

How good is the service? The ones I've had in the past always buffer and difficult to navigate. Do you need to keep Sky subscription as a back up?

Don't forget to add how to add the 'Developer Options' button if it doesn't appear automatically.

Quite straight forward, so I've been told.
