  • DamienAshton Damien Ashton-Wellman (@DamienAshton) reported from Birmingham, England

    Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

    @piersmorgan It’s a Tory cut to a public service! Let’s not turn this into a BBC hate fest as Twitter seems to do at every opportunity. As a nation I believe we are willing to see an increase in the licence fee to subsidise those who are struggling, Freeview would still be most affordable TV.

    @Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

    @madaboutHolly @Lee_JM75 Who's watching this bad boy on Freeview channel 70 ,Horror, right now😁💩💩💩

  • TomPoole007 Tom Poole (@TomPoole007) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virtualash tell your boys your TV quality is poor on Freeview. Whale's head will not look fuzzy. This can't be allowed to happen.

  • ellrbrown Elliott Brown (@ellrbrown) reported from Birmingham, England

    @mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

    @MoneySavingExp Had Freeview for years. Haven't got time to watch everything we record so would never pay for even more channels.

  • AmyJonson12 Amy Jonson (@AmyJonson12) reported

    @MutzUk @GMB @BootstrapCook Just so you know im an unpaid carer. I dont have a car I dont drink or smoke Takeaways are a once a month treat I have a samsung A12 phone I dont have wifi only mobile data I dont have a computer I dont have sky just freeview My clothes are from Primark But yeah its a great life

  • _Hometech_ Hometech Solutions (@_Hometech_) reported

    @Nur_Jahan786 @SkyUK From what I tell it’s just a Samsung TV which means you could still plug a set top box into one of the HDMIs or use Freeview just like any other tv. I guess this just has the new Sky streaming service built in.

  • UselessLittleMe Lisa (@UselessLittleMe) reported

    @LQcontactus No problem. Thanks for replying to me. No she doesn't have satellite TV. She just has non satellite freeview, and according to them there are no problems on their end.

  • steeleyp_ PS (@steeleyp_) reported

    @anditsinthere_7 @TheEverydayMan_ @SkyUK You're left with a 48-month credit agreement for a TV tied to the Sky OS. You don't even get all Freeview channels or an aerial socket on the back. No satellite tuner so unless you LIVE for Sky and plan to NEVER cancel, it'd be a huge waste of money.

  • GarySyms Gary #NHSPay15 💙🌍🌈💖 (@GarySyms) reported

    @skindeep1956 @TheNorthernEcho Absolutely agree with you, I've phoned Freeview, TV Licence, even Arqiva, & just constantly getting fobbed off by people who don't have a clue. 8 weeks now with no TV services at all! Bilsdale mast fire caused by overloading a 52 year old transmitter & poor maintenance!

  • steeleyp_ PS (@steeleyp_) reported

    @AndrewGrill @skytv Only a game-changer if you never plan to cancel Sky. Freeview not included outside the PSBs, no aerial socket for DTT and forever locked into a Sky OS... great fun if you choose to cancel Sky TV. No third-party services/apps other than what Sky say you can have. No thanks.

  • pop_hill Pop (@pop_hill) reported

    @SkyNews Can I connect my BluRay player to it, and is there a Freeview tuner in case the internet goes down?

  • amysmummie villagelifesucks (@amysmummie) reported

    With fb etc down the bollocks known as goes wrong show is on BBC1. Ffs. How the actual **** does that shite get made? I don't have sky or netflix. I have "council" tv, freeview. A.k.a. free shite to view and having to pay tv licence for bollocks. Great stuff BBC.

  • carew_deborah Deborah Carew (@carew_deborah) reported
