19 Facts About YouSee

YouSee is the largest quadruple play service provider in Denmark, and is a part of Nuuday which is a spun-off company from TDC Group, the largest telecommunications company in Denmark which was split into two separate companies.

YouSee was named Tele Danmark and was the parent company for the existing regional companies .

On 1 July 2016 the TDC consumer business was merged with YouSee, migrating the entire TDC customer base of IPTV, broadband and mobile consumers to YouSee.

YouSee was moved to the latter, which would focus on digital services and customer experiences.

Today YouSee continues to serve broadband to consumers either via coaxial cable, optical fiber or through the old copper telephone lines .

Also in 2016, YouSee started a nationwide upgrade of their broadband infrastructure in a partnership with Huawei.

On 15 September 2009 YouSee decided to unencrypt its digital TV distribution, under the marketing name YouSee Clear.

At the time YouSee distributed channels in both MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 but in April 2013, YouSee stopped this simulcasting to focus on MPEG-4 only.

The name YouSee Clear was used until 1 July 2014 when it was renamed YouSee Tv.

In early 2017, YouSee switched off their cable radio services, which had been used to redistribute several Danish and foreign FM radio stations.

YouSee had however continued to provide radio service via the DVB-C signal and via their set-top box - this was discontinued on 30 December 2020.

YouSee offers IPTV over coaxial cable, optical fiber and copper telephone cables.

In October 2013 YouSee did however launch a new service called “Extra channels” where consumers could buy channels separately if the consumer subscribes to at least the basic package, and buy at least 4 extra channels.

In March 2014 YouSee launched a new “pick-and-mix” service called “Bland-selv” where customers could subscribe to the medium or full package but replace the channels with ones of their own choosing.

In early 2020 YouSee announced their plans to scrap the long-lived medium and full packages in order to make the “pick-and-mix” service the standard, indicating that the Basic package will be scrapped in the future, giving the consumers complete control over which channels they pay for.

YouSee continues to offer fixed telephony services using IP as well as traditional landline.

YouSee now operates 43 stores around the country, after a re-branding of TDC stores to the YouSee brand began in March 2016.

YouSee Play was launched on 6 October 2014 as the future of cable tv.

Less than a year later, on 25 August 2015 YouSee Play was shut down, although the features was carried over to the existing main YouSee TV product.
