    @itvnews I complained about that awful erectile disfunction advert that appears on some Freeview channels, sometimes in the day & at teatimes, when kids will be watching & they didn't do anything! They said it was fine. It's not nice when young grandkids ask what erectile disfunction is!

  • deb_the_dj Deborah Marshall 💙 (@deb_the_dj) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @ExmoorOn Never thought to ask to be honest. Luckily I can get Radio Northampton on Freeview so at least I can listen in.

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported

    The EU have managed to get RT off-air in the UK except for Freeview HD by removing the signal from the satellite uplink based in Luxembourg.

  • alistaircoleman Alistair Coleman (@alistaircoleman) reported

    Here's the situation: RT is OFF on Sky RT is ON Freeview in HD only (ch113) but off on SD (ch 234) Your mileage may vary depending on your service provider.

  • alistaircoleman Alistair Coleman (@alistaircoleman) reported

    RT is still on Freeview as its signal comes from elsewhere, but I really wouldn't bother. (thanks @tweetSP0RT)

  • Dav_Khobiar Dav.Khobiar (@Dav_Khobiar) reported

    The RT chanell just became unavailable on my freeview set. If it didn't come back on air I'll cancel my TV license.

  • mkalexroy641 Marc Alec (@mkalexroy641) reported

    @NadineDorries Not much of a restriction, it's still available on Freeview which most people have. Close it down completely.

  • JoeClitherow Joe Clitherow (@JoeClitherow) reported

    @Agar5588 @NadineDorries I think that's different to the satellite source being taken down. Sky or Freeview could have acted unilaterally to block broadcast, whereas satellite block removed the option

  • back_the_BBC Back the BBC 📺📻📡📱 (@back_the_BBC) reported

    @Jake_Kanter I look forward to @afneil explaining how that would work technically for all the tens of millions of homes that get all their TV through Freesat and Freeview. Spoiler - there is no solution that doesn't cost billions and a decade to implement

  • sedition3 Adrianne Sebastian-Scott (@sedition3) reported

    @FranS199 I sent a complaint to Freeview. I hope other people do too.

  • LorryLocket Lorrie (@LorryLocket) reported

    @virginmedia absolute joke, customer for 20+ yrs, informed services have had a price increase from £99 to £147, rang up to change services to reduce costs, best they can do is Freeview for £89?! Person I spoke to unhelpful and uninterested 🤯

  • JoeClitherow Joe Clitherow (@JoeClitherow) reported

    @Agar5588 @NadineDorries Isn't the Freeview a satellite relay broadcast though? I think RT is uploaded to satellite from Moscow, then downloaded to consumer satellite dishes and relay stations for terrestrial broadcast, e.g. via Freeview So removing from the satellite should also take down Freeview
