  • NinjaTHaii chameleon (@NinjaTHaii) reported

    @PropertyBrother I’ve watched your programme sitting in England since it was shown on freeview. I’ve noticed you never seem to make design choices which need to be rectified. Do you ever choose stuff wrong?

  • ITVXhelp ITVX Help (@ITVXhelp) reported

    @aitchstone Hi 👋 We upgraded our tech to offer more content and improve our overall app experience. A big part involved updating our content protection to keep our shows copyright-safe. This tech is not supported by some Freeview devices and is no longer compatible to support the ITVX app.

    @brianwinteruk Hi, Brian. Sorry to hear that you're having problems receiving Freeview. If you can DM us your postcode along with house number or name, we can check for any known issues and advise from there. Fraser

  • mike32277328 Mike Hammerswitch (@mike32277328) reported

    @nicky20 @piersmorgan Go to Freeview and keep scrolling down past Dave Ja Vue and the shopping channels, past GB News and Jim Davidson's channel & it's somewhere there

  • SS401 Paul Rogers 🇺🇦 🜃 (@SS401) reported

    Our Freeview has completely crashed - no signal on any channel. Is it just us? @AboutEG

  • lysandrenation Augustine (lucien lachance my beloved) (@lysandrenation) reported

    @LORDCANTl i loved watching it as a kid on TV ive only ever had freeview and it aired on like 1 channel and then one day it stopped worst day of my life as a 7 year old

  • CharlotteDeak Charlotte Deakin (@CharlotteDeak) reported

    @NPHockeyPuck Yep got it down to 32 and then I decided I only wanted freeview and internet so cancelled it altogether. Keep going with it everytime they offer say no .

  • mcarbl ьеи (@mcarbl) reported

    @virginmedia I have the basic of basic packages. Volt included, whatever that means, as I’m on O2 as well. A 22.5% increase is ridiculous for what is essentially Freeview with broadband. More ridiculous is your blanket removal of our right to cancel because of such imposed future increases

  • a11who Gary Percival (@a11who) reported

    @TPTVEncore Hi folks. This may be a silly question but does the red button service work on a Freeview TV that isn't connected to wi-fi? My brother lives in north Wales and can get @TalkingPicsTV but has no wi-fi or even a landline. Should he be able to use the red button still?
