Skylink Tv Antenna - It is a SCAM!
I ordered 2 of the Skylink antennas and installed per directions. When I did a channel search, I did not receive even 1 channel.
I tried a different room. Still no luck. I e-mailed Skylink and they said I was doing it wrong and to try a certain method. That was the exact method I tried, but I did try it again.
STill no luck. So I asked to send them back and get a refund. They quit answering me. Since I had used PayPal to buy them, I contacted PayPal with my complaint.
Soon after that I heard back from Skylink. TRy one more time. I did and nothing happened, again. I told them I wanted my money back.
This time they said the antennas must have been defective and they would refund my money to PayPal, which they did. They didn't even ask for the antennas back.
At least I got my money back. But you can tell it is a scam.
Reason of review: Bad quality.
Preferred solution: Quit selling fake antennas!.

According to Skylink TV Antenna refund policy you will get full refund of your purchase if your antenna is damaged. However, in the Skylink TV Antenna return policy there is no information on how you can send the defective product back. In this case they advice to contact the Skylink TV Antenna customer service department by email support@skylinktvantenna.com, by phone (800) 351-4939.
Over 30 years of USNavy Avionics engineering experience tells me to tell everyone DO NOT BUY these antennas, regardless of who they are made by and what the hype says! They don't work any better than a metal clothes hanger! Don't waste your time and money.
People, don't let ANY of these so called antenna companies set you back even one cent! They don't work.
You're better off sticking a metal clothes hanger in your antenna port! I've spent 30 years in the USNavy as an Avionics engineer and pilot.
Trust me. Don't waste your time and money.
Thanks for the advice about TV antennas are worthless. What _would_ be an alternative other than cable then?
Go to Best Buy and purchase a REAL TV antenna.
LMAO.. just because you have no idea how technology works, it's a scam? lol, okie dokie there buddie.
You sir are full of ordure
What they send you is a cheap piece of plastic with a piece of metal and a cord attached. Instant disappointment, you can tell it won't work before you try hooking it up. I was fortunate and got a refund.
The Government needs to protect the consumers.
Do not buy ,It is a scam , I hooked it up ,switched to antenna and ran a channel scan only got 3 channels did it 3 x's still only 3 channels . Don't make the mistake I did
I bought 2 of these items and again the same problem. They do not work.
I have contacted them several times and all they suggest is that I try again. have demanded a refund so now awaiting their reply.
beware of this scam,antenna is now been sold under a different name. FIX TV ANTENNA
yes I have also have been caught up in this scam, these a antennas are junk,a piece of plastic with a wire attached
I have experienced the same thing. Contacted them on the 14/1/2019 and told I was not connecting correctly.
I had connected correctly. They are not replying, so I too will contact PayPal.
Save your money. This company is making a lot of money off of wire and plastic. It simply does not work.
Exact same thing happened to me. Skylink product is mediocre at best and customer service absolutely sucks.
Nothing comes up when I put in zip? don't trust them!
Have listened to what has been said and have not brought. Many hanks all you have saved me my money.
Many thanks saved my money
I also bought two, one for myself and one for my son, Neither of them work
