    @traceyfromrasen @Kavismate @SkySportsRacing @RacingTV My Freeview signal can be hopeless at best even connected to Wi-fi but the HDMI/laptop combo works well when the cat isn’t jumping on it !

    @lbc the bbc Is a good thing if it needs a new funding model it should be general taxation like every other public service. Subscription won't work because of freeview and also the radio networks can't go on subscription either

  • CEEGEE12 Carole Geddes (@CEEGEE12) reported

    @Oldbird19 We don't have the full service for freeview in my area so can't check with anyone locally

  • simonglynjones Simon G Jones (@simonglynjones) reported

    @bbceurovision getting really fed up with sound issues on #Freeview - every time Graham Norton comes in the volume drops out! Grrrr! #Eurovision2021

  • eugenespeed2 Barry Wilson (@eugenespeed2) reported

    Can you get battery powered freeview TVs? I don't mean rechargeable batteries, but ones where you stick a few AAs in? I had an analogue one but never seen a digital version. I'm not getting much luck with Google. All I'm finding is plug or rechargable powered.

  • BarbaraRowley7 Barbara Rowley (@BarbaraRowley7) reported

    @bagga2007 Oh no! Do you have devices for streaming and an internet connection that’ll support it? The Freeview channels all have free apps to watch their programs. They should tide you over until you replace the TV.

    @Omahuson @TVNZ We never use Freeview for TVNZ on demand..always the app on TV

  • CheritonWeather CheritonWeather CT19 (@CheritonWeather) reported

    @LBC @darrenadam I hope not.....It's sad that so many people are happy to pay for subscription services, but not a license fee for what is essentially a good service via Freeview and Freesat. I refuse to line the pockets of companies like Sky, Netflix, Amazon etc

  • DarrenHindle1 Darren Hindle (@DarrenHindle1) reported

    @virginmedia Really? I hadn't considered that. My issue isn't my services being cut its the fact you make Freeview unwatchable it's a shits trick and is nothing but spite it's not like it goes away after 5 minutes I have to record what I want to watch to avoid the bloody thing
