  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @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…

  • 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.

    @LBC Traded in the equivalent of an all singing & dancing satellite tv service with films and sport plus Netflix thrown in for Freeview with a dodgy signal with half the stations but it does have a little British flag in the corner

  • wiganshale john shale (@wiganshale) reported

    @virginmedia @Ofcom just to let you know that tivo is still freezing up, whilst my wife is watching it and that your only solution is to turn it off and on is not an appropriate response. take the tivo away and deduct from my bundle and I'll get a Freeview box.

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • HJMovingFarAway HJHeadingFarAway (@HJMovingFarAway) reported

    Progress so far: washer is on, I'm working my way through a box of biscuits, finding all the concerts on Sky Arts Freeview & have loaded up instructions for my Miops that came 2 weeks ago (according to Amazon). Gonna be a slow-burner, but I'm getting there. Staying up till 8am.

  • StoneGringo Gringo Rolling Stone - Wear a feckin mask! (@StoneGringo) reported

    @SandraRolston Mine never mastered Freeview. It was 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 and that was yer lot.

  • TonyMoretta Tony Moretta (@TonyMoretta) reported

    @Deano230 @AlStewartOBE It could have developed with FTA broadcasters as Freeview later did. Other problem is it never recovered financially from Sky switching to free box offer.

    @cheesedoff3 Ha Ha They are trying to force folk to subscribe the SKY etc But they are being Discriminatory They don't realise how many poor families, older folk or Single people who can't afford to Subscribe Whoever does the programing for Freeview MUST be getting a backhander. REPEATS

    @Carti_Mandua @MontyGeoff You should cancel your licence, everything on freeview is available by on demand. Save yourself £156 a year 🙃

  • JasCB2 Jas C-B (@JasCB2) reported

    @SpammyFritter My initial thought was how very tacky.... But ive never been one for crackers at the table. Got me back on side with the freeview, that was a nice festive touch.

  • ArthurPalmer1 Arthur Palmer (@ArthurPalmer1) reported

    Television over Christmas, has been 'complete' rubbish! I refer to the endless annual repeats on many channels. Strange that on 'Freeview' there is a Christmas channel 51 Sony Movies. They have the all the Christmas movies, to their credit. Shame on all the others for garbage!
