  • LJMPetDesigns Lee-Mc (@LJMPetDesigns) reported

    @virginmedia I just wish you would allow people to upgrade TV packages via the website, no issues with your other services, but can never get through to speak to someone, so spent the holidays with freeview, since I couldn’t upgrade via web

  • Neill_Peel NeillNeillOrangePeel (@Neill_Peel) reported

    @bt_uk I never use Freeview. It's the connection via sky boxes. No error code, just constant "you cannot watch TV at the moment due to a connection error" ( or something like that)... It's happened about 50 times since 5:30 this morning, tablet loses connection too.

    @JINTY1B Hi, Thanks for getting in touch. Freeview is a UK based service only, so unfortunately you would not be able to view Freeview in Spain. Dan.

    @BlckCatBlckSky Yeah, I forgot that’s what Americans call it. We definitely have it but people just call it tv. To be honest since the digital change over most people call it freeview which is the service.

    Hey @BBCOne please sort out the sound on your HD channel. It’s bloody awful. Have to put the volume twice what it is on a normal channel. Also: Transmit ALL your regional channels in HD too. Sick of having to find another channel on sky / freeview to watch 21st century content

    @gudger_adam Hi Adam, we're sorry you were having this audio issue while viewing #BigFatQuiz. Could you let us know if you were viewing online or live on your TV? If live, how do you receive your signal? (Sky/Virgin/Freeview etc.)

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

  • jonaspaul007 Jazz Jay (@jonaspaul007) reported

    @SkyNews why does sky news sound so bad on Freeview today? The presenter sounds like she is talking for a sock!
