    @Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

  • DamienAshton Damien Ashton-Wellman (@DamienAshton) reported from Birmingham, England

    Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

    @DaveMcleanComms That is your choice. But many people rely on the BBC as a free to air public broadcasting service. Its a bit like paying your National Insurance & choosing to pay medical insurance to go private instead of using the NHS. Also, you get to watch all the freeview channels as well.

    @SteffApCennydd @shearersbuddy @Inandoutagain But the BBC set up britbox a subscription service easy enough. The other Freeview channels can stay where they are free of charge.

    @JBainsworthy @darrengrimes_ @cue_bono It's going on Freeview and Freesat. Money doesn't appear to be an issue.

  • stellastar12 stella (@stellastar12) reported

    @danwootton I know I will be hated but £159 a yr not so bad in my book. I pay for no other tv. No sky, Netflix or any other that some say you can't live without. I have 5 terrestrial channels plus freeview more than enough channels

  • FlissKitson Fliss Kitson (@FlissKitson) reported

    @alexreid1964 @_williamdoyle Yeah NOW TV 7 day free trial, cancel it right after setting it up.. bobs yer uncle. It’ll be on freeview Sky Arts channel again but probably at a ridiculous hour in the morning

  • lewysstacey Andrew Harris (@lewysstacey) reported

    @SteffApCennydd What you talking about, freeview could still continue for all the other channels all the BBC would need to do is make a sub service for its existing service as the BBC, they already have the iPlayer set up it's relatively easy to change that to a sub service.

  • SteffApCennydd SteffApCennydd (@SteffApCennydd) reported

    @lewysstacey A streaming vod service is relatively easy to set up. But changing Freeview's architecture isn't as simple as a block on BBC channels. It all gets switched to subs or not at all. It would mean forcing a lot of people to buy new gear to watch something they're already paying for.

    @BBCNews the price isn't a dealbreaker, although if they stopped aggressively bullying those who own a tv but don't watch freeview, they would save a shitload of money and could afford to bring the license fee down, which would be nice

    I literally never watch Freeview. I made the mistake of switching it on and remembered how much I hate being bombarded with betting and gambling ads.
