@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!

@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.

Hi @ArgosHelpers I bought a freeview box on 21/9/22 but it's faulty 2 months on. Keeps loosing signal then the whole thing has frozen not allowing channels to be changed or even switch off. How do I claim a refund?

My Youview box has packed up. No major problem, but it was convenient to have all my streaming apps (more or less) in one place with one controller. Am I better off buying an android box or a smart tv with all built in? I have an Amazon stick but no Freeview on it. Thoughts?

@CharlotteCGill The 20-somethings would not say that, they know UK's senior citizens who rely on a state pension, need pension credit, do not have Netflix, they have Freeview instead, never buy expensive coffees or food outside their home.

Why does Pop (Freeview 206) broadcast at night? Who'd be watching? Wouldn't it be better to run the signal on another channel for non-kid's TV at night?

@tarasutherland @felicitykate @rosered_nz My TV has a Freeview tuner built in. I had the antenna guy come and take the antenna down because birds we’re using it to **** on my deck. I can stream live TV from the TVNZ and Three apps on Apple TV if I want to subject myself to that.

Just a warning to folk - don't buy a @Manhattan_TV freeview box. The call centre staff are very rude, unhelpful and just talk over you. Their equipment is not fit for purpose!!

@LGUK is it true that my LG tv screen keeps going black because of an issue with HD freeview signal? Got told by your rep that I had to wait three weeks for a software update.

@taffjohnlloyd @skytv No, you can't record once you cancel... Though can still watch the Freeview channels, which is pointless as my telly has Freeview built-in.
