    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.

    @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…

    @smoothfuego1 Bro I grew up poor MTV base ? BET on freeview was the first time I saw black people on tv since they cancelled 6:30pm fresh Prince

    If you want factual news watch Aljaazeera news on Freeview 285. If you want the Tory news watch BBC all about Jousting and lambs being born, a distraction from the real issues happening at home around the world. Your choice as an intelligent society.

  • ZH956 TTNeb (@ZH956) reported

    Sat down with my tea to watch #Unforgotten Freeview box let me down. Recording failed 😭 Now have choice to watch on phone via @ITVX as can't link it to tv or wait for laptop to be repaired & watch it on that in a few days. #Gutted

    @jock_savage @ruskin147 This licence lets you use and install receiving equipment at the licensed place. watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat) watch live on streaming services (e.g. ITVX, All 4, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Now, Sky Go)

  • johnkcrouch John Crouch - Pro EU (@johnkcrouch) reported

    @virginmedia I distanced myself from your so-called service years ago, @virginmedia Sick of constant loss of broadband, unexplained loss of TV signal and dreadful customer support I switched to Freeview and Vodafone. I save enough each month to pay for a good night out and I am stress free.

    @cutex24 Hello. Thanks for letting us know. It is possible that it is temporary due to weather conditions. Where are you watching from (and via which service, Freeview etc)?

  • SebbieJ Seb (@SebbieJ) reported

    How is it in 2023 @BBCNews still can't show local news in HD on @FreeviewTV. What exactly are we paying for again? Every other paid TV service (netflix, prime, etc) is delivering in 4k and we're still getting most Freeview channels in 480p it's 1992.
