    @bigpapablu @itvfootball I don’t have a sky or freeview box! I stream everything and have very good internet so it’s never an issue haha

    @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.

    I hope I'll still have a tv service to watch once I'm with BT as I think they assume I have freeview when in fact I get tv from freesat through a satellite dish and current broadband provider I swear to god I spoke to someone today who wasn't sure what's in my new order with bt

    @TheCMReed @Potato_Fi @TurtleBeach Nope, no change 😫 POV1 is “stuck” in freeview mode so I can’t do things like select the throttle in training mode. I’m guessing this isn’t an issue on yours then which gives me hope for a fix from TB

    @JamesTurner37 @timalmond So what if the person could only afford the TV subscription? Sounds like virgin media are holding customers to ransom in your complex and could be forcing other customers into debt especially with COL crisis at present. Try an indoor aerial and signal booster for freeview tv.

    @LGUKCare Hi, I've an LG smart TV. I've been trying to use channelbox on freeview 271. My hbbtv setting is on, but it still doesn't work. Google seems to suggest this is an LG problem. Can you advise please?

    @em_cooper Read your book backlog instead. Pretend you're on holiday with a crap aerial and freeview, the only choices being Bargain Hunt or a repeat of A Home In The Sun.

    @TalkingPicsTV hi, We have a brand new TV, Internet and freeview but we get as far as pressing OK to watch something then a blank screen, with the red button service. Are we not doing something obvious maybe?
