    @Emmalouisajones @SkyNews Poor retro-protest. You can't cancel Sky News. It's on Freeview.

  • NeelyFanForever ☘️NeelyFanTerry ☘️ (@NeelyFanForever) reported from Garforth, England

    @MaddFan1 Same thing happened to me a few years ago, I was quite happy watching @AJEnglish on Freeview and then suddenly it went on to freeview HD, which my box wasn't. My problem was finally solved when they started broadcasting live on Youtube.

  • SLCollindridge Sean Collindridge (@SLCollindridge) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @AmazonHelp I bought a Freeview PVR on my new Argos but have since decided I don't want it. It's still ready for collection at the Huddersfield store. What can I do to cancel this and have my card refunded

  • NEFamilyFun Sam Rickelton | North East Family Fun (@NEFamilyFun) reported from Leeds, England

    @Sharon43068108 Very annoying! They are now showing the same match on BBC 1 AND 2. We are in a hotel room son only have Freeview. Going to watch Bridget Jones Diary on itv2 - I have my fingers crossed it's not too rude for the kids 🤣 (from what I remember, I think it's ok)

    @BotFinderUK Let them pay for it then - and exempt the others from a compulsory licence fee to watch tv even if you never watch the BBC. No one is forced to pay to watch Sky or GB News - they are free on freeview. They are forced to pay for the BBC if they want to watch any live tv.

    @Sargon_of_Akkad I've been thinking about this. If Sky is funded from subscriptions why is the awful Sky News on Freeview? It should be banned from Freeview because it's using it subscription revenue stream to distort the free to air market.

    @BenInRushcliffe @GBNEWS So they should be moved from the 'News' section of the Freeview schedule. Give them a channel number similar to the Food Network or QVC.
