    @vistaextra @Callumizatt @virginmedia Definitely a Virgin problem... all channels not just those. I've switched to freeview and it's fine.

  • JAQKpanda ♦♠JAQK♥♣🐼Vtuber! (@JAQKpanda) reported

    @KatiKnitt That really sucks. We have the TV license here in the UK, but if you don't actually consume "live TV" (BBC, freeview, live sports, etc.) then you don't actually have to pay for it; in my case, all I use is YT, Twitch & stream subs. Shocking and aggravating that you're forced to!

  • jimswanstonlive Jimmy Swanston (@jimswanstonlive) reported

    @virginmedia @amelieroseeee It was sky having same issues so not just @virginmedia try watching freeview

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @WASPCommander Sadly we don't control your signal strength, you need to speak with your service provider, who should be able to advise you/help you. Is its Freeview? Freeview advice line on 03456 505050.

    Anyone having problems with broadband & TV from @virginmedia in London? Getting error codes CS3300, CS2004. TV picture starts flickering & either wifi drops or runs very slowly! Freeview is fine. Not getting the service we paid for!

    freeview has been largely unwatchable for months since they took off the 5G bands for mobile networks... let alone with atmospheric issue today.. only channel which seems reasonable at the moment is @horror_channel

  • TheTalkUK The Talk (@TheTalkUK) reported

    Should the Government cut up to 91,000 civil service jobs to save money? Watch The Talk from 9pm tonight: 📺 Sky 526 | Virgin Media 627 | Freeview 237 | Freesat 217

    Woeful service from @skytv Time to change to freeview. You call customer services before 9. But no one wants to talk. So you get cut off 4 times. Poor CS.

  • Stephen_Neal Stephen Neal (@Stephen_Neal) reported

    @nigelwUK @MatthewMarks42 @bobdvb Odd. It must be doing a 5.1->2.0 PCM fold-down rather than a 5.1 PCM output I guess. There is no stereo on Freeview HD when 5.1 is being broadcast. (On satellite there is a parallel stereo audio description feed)
