  • minxsterev helen kirk (@minxsterev) reported from Crewe, England

    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

  • m7leicauser Andy Barton (@m7leicauser) reported from Comberbach, England

    @FreeviewTV Thanks to Dan at Freeview, the aerial-out retune x2 seems to have cured the problem. 👍

  • Crewedaddy Richard Seamon (@Crewedaddy) reported from Crewe, England

    @james_blue_cat Can't afford any streaming service or the hardware upgrade to accommodate one. Freeview and iPlayer is enough. Didn't switch telly on Xmas day and Bob and Paul going fishing was my highlight.

    @scott_peac There are no plans to end Freeview and we are always looking to improve the service and and add services like Freeview Play. Christne

  • scott_peac Scott Peacock (@scott_peac) reported

    @Ozcan1945 @karl1953howman Unfortunely there is no more capacity left on freeview for this channel to return. The reason for the closure of Forces tv, were down to cost, Arqiva who owns the transmitters, need to encourage broadcasters to switchover from DVB T to DVB T 2 and bring cost down.

  • oliver_shergold Acid 🇺🇦 Mouse (@oliver_shergold) reported

    @Sparkypatrick Yes I saw that, Talk Talk the cheapest, never looked at Plusnet, just walked up to the precinct and set up new account, new contract, fed up with Freeview content so now at least got all the Sky channels plus catch up and record.

  • lookoutwales2 Gareth Joy (@lookoutwales2) reported

    @eljonesuk *faints* P.S. Sorry to see FreeSports close on Freeview (even though they always cut out your stuff on the rugby league replays!)

  • Clivemerritt clive merritt (@Clivemerritt) reported

    @westywaldo @btsport That's kinda my point then, everything is better when it's free lol, if not freeview though then i'm glad it's not sky, Sky lock you in, it's extremely expensive and their flexibility with their apps for watching other than on TV are crap, same as their multi room.

  • DarrenCarleyLFC Darren ⚽️ (@DarrenCarleyLFC) reported

    Never knew retuning your Freeview TV or set top box would be so much of an hassle sometimes I just can't be bothered doing it..

  • HybridProphecy Jack° 🎗 (@HybridProphecy) reported

    @anee1a Probably 50% of the foreign films I've seen I saw for the first time on Film4, a Freeview channel lol As long as you're able to read subtitles easily, it shouldn't be a problem. I'm certainly not "cultured", I've just never been put off by subtitles.
