@Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

@Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

Pops has his TV back, and me turning Router off @ night, safety reasons, is the reason his box went wrong. It needs updating during night. Bloody stupid. My Freeview lets me know when I need to update. More electricity on, when not needed. Bills going up.

@FreeviewTV CA14 Workington, no freeview signal on both receivers. I visually checked my aerial, it's still pointing the same way as all the others. All my neighbours are at work so can't check with them.

@ceincein Deliberately watching the 10-minute freeview just praying to get caught by their maw. We're not on WhatsApp or anything but her and my auntie used to live together and we sometimes hang out at family things.

Dear @SkyNews. Please can you take over the HD channel of RT on Freeview? I’m sure @Ofcom can help make this happen quickly.

@k1482 @AvonandsomerRob The good lord commonsense. It's about budgets and budgeting. Freeview TV is .... free. So you can't deny it would help household finances, especially for those who are cash-strapped; whether they are employed by the state or not.
