    Anyone else finding that their #Freeview signal has substantially weakened 🤔 Found recently that terrestrial channels are inexplicably disappearing from our smart TV. Not sure if they've weakened the signal to save energy. We're in South Birmingham.

  • NeilNeilasher Neil Asher (@NeilNeilasher) reported

    @SpoonWilsons @BBCNews No, not everyone. Anyone with Sky, Virgin, et al, would already have a box they could subscribe via. We all got STBs when the analogue signal was turned off, so we could get Freeview. How else can they police the, new, non-licence-fee era that starts in a few years time?

  • DBD365 Paul Day (@DBD365) reported

    How ******** am I watching Clive James interview Katherine Hepburn for an hour on a Freeview channel called 'That's TV Xmas'?

  • Stiggylou Sam (@Stiggylou) reported

    High tide and lost all my freeview channels. I probably need to get a fixed aerial at some point. First World problems.

  • sussexterrier Kevin Beaumont (@sussexterrier) reported

    Tried to watch "Putin - the road to War" on PBS America and PBS America + 1 - 84/87 on freeview. Unwatchable owing to "interference". Never any problems with this channel previously. I wonder....

    £50+ a month for @skytv so decided to buy a smart tv and get freeview & Netflix instead for 1/4 the price. 15+ yrs a sky customer and not one call to ask why, just a letter to tell me to reset up DD #terriblecustomerservice Adios

    @Mrs_Quickly I wouldn't even steal it on a hooky box literally worthless. No intrinsic value, yet idiots fork out anywhere from £20-£120 a month for the meritricious crap served up by murdoch and 90% plus of what they watch is on #freeview
