    @whatuptkhere The "freeview" apps now all require a sign in to watch the free to air streams. It's not enough to just sit through ads any more, they have to capture your personal data too.

    FreeView is the most pointless load of crap ever.

  • DallasStarsUK UK Dallas Stars Fanatics (@DallasStarsUK) reported

    @soph_letitia It’s on FreeSports not Premier, you can watch it online or on FreeView if you can get it on your TV down there

  • dcfc_jr JR🐏 (@dcfc_jr) reported

    @isaacjs29 Bet you wish he’d saved your ears instead, I bet you get freeview on them bad boys

  • BobbyLow_ BOBBY ⚒ (@BobbyLow_) reported

    @Chris29Cunningh Are you watching it on freeview?. Yeah it’s bad, but ok on sky or the app.

  • jbarshall JamieB (@jbarshall) reported

    @BBCiPlayerForum I don’t understand why iPlayer has stopped using a grid channel and programme finder for everything that is showing on all the iPlayer channels? It’s a huge omission, makes no sense… I have to use the Freeview app on my phone to see what’s on. BBC pl fix!!

    @houseoflabrys My game plan when I moved in was to find someone who would install a satellite dish for me (via BT, kind of expensive to do independently), then once that contract was up go to freeview box £70. Internet / phoneline (I never use) by Plusnet. They're fine? <£30p/m

  • SkyNews Sky News (@SkyNews) reported

    Boris Johnson is being urged to use PMQs today as a "golden opportunity" to issue an apology over his claim that Sir Keir Starmer failed to prosecute Jimmy Savile. Health Minister Ed Argar joins #KayBurley to discuss. 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

  • 100voicess Lauren Towers (@100voicess) reported

    @virginmedia All checked no issues that I can find...far worse if I'm trying to watch channels not on freeview

    @NYorksPolice This is obviously a hang over from the Bilsdale transmitter problems. As far as I am aware, Harrogate has good Freeview coverage now. If not from Bilsdale, then from one of two temporary relays set up by Arqiva.
