    @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.

  • 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. 👍

  • 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.

    @IanRedman11 @FreeviewTV Exactly - and it didn't need to be that way - there could have been a plan from the moment the first HD service launched in 2010. Best option now might be a hard switchover (like France did) where Freeview SD basically closes one day and is replaced by a HD equivalent the next.

    @hoolatv Uh... hello? BBC News and CBBC have changed transponders on satellite, and Quest moved multiplexes on Freeview, why have you still not fixed the issues? I have a bad feeling when BBC One and BBC Two move transponders you won't have it fixed in time, which is problematic.

    So I've migrated to @ITVX from BritBoxUK to get more value for money. However, the UI seems very buggy on my Freeview Play TV and is very slow/ unresponsive on other devices. I also miss the Skip Intro feature. At least the contents should be the same, right @ITVXhelp ?

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    @adamhale_ @IanRedman11 @FreeviewTV The issue is though that HD space is only limited due to inaction by Freeview. Even with losing that extra capacity to 5G had a long term plan been put in place when COM7/8 were launched we should have a platform now with space for around 30 HD channels and the rest in SD.

    @Brekkietweets @FreeviewTV ITV2 HD not being on freeview is just damn annoying, having to watch through the HD stream via ITV X is a faff

  • 3_monk Monkenstien. (@3_monk) reported

    @virginmedia i will give credit to your guy on the phone desperate to try and keep me as a customer, and you have nothing for 15yrs loyalty other than a tv package we call freeview elsewhere, slower speeds and a landline i haven't used in 10yrs.

    @smartin The version of C4 HD on Freesat and Freeview is the London ad region. This means C4 HD isn't eligible to move to 104 until the regional variants of C4 HD are added to Freesat, so it matches the current SD service.
