    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

  • richard__webb Richard Webb (@richard__webb) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @GBNEWS i was so looking forward to it. But… on freeview the picture quality is really poor, sound is out of sync, and just feels like the sets are dark and badly lit. Took my focus away from listening to whats being projected. #GBNews

    @UncleStanBoslom Not to my knowledge - we did have some intermittent problems on the FM transmitter in the week before but nothing we were aware of on the day. Was she listening FM, DAB or Freeview?

    @LuckyLu31582986 @virginmedia Switched over to freeview and having no problems at all. I was thinking it was @virginmedia problems

  • RDiz82 Dizzle🇳🇱 (@RDiz82) reported

    So @virginmedia, do you think it acceptable to have us, a loyal 9 year customer, who asked to downgrade, removing Sky Sports/Movies from the package to now having basic Freeview channels, but now charging us £75 PER MONTH for the so called privilege??

  • TheTalkUK The Talk (@TheTalkUK) reported

    Should the Government cut up to 91,000 civil service jobs to save money? Watch The Talk from 9pm tonight: 📺 Sky 526 | Virgin Media 627 | Freeview 237 | Freesat 217

  • DoubleMackem Steve Ruffell (@DoubleMackem) reported

    @AlStewartOBE Freeview v cable or satellite TV. Mobile phone v smart phone. Holiday abroad v stay at home. Big brand clothes v supermarket brand. Putting more clothes on v keeping heat on. All choices we have to make to 'make ends meet'. Reasonable to check with those seeking support.

    @FreeviewAdvice After watching All4 on Freeview, we switch back to live TV, but the sound is missing. We have to turn everything off at the mains then on again, to make the sound return. Can you advise a better way /how to avoid this problem ?

  • TheMagnusShaw Magnus Shaw (@TheMagnusShaw) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hello. Unfortunately our normally excellent Freeview signal has fallen to pieces over the last few days. Picture freezes, pixels everywhere and so on. Often dies altogether and says 'Low or no signal received'. Can you help, please. PC: S410FB

    @jonesy_nb I liked Norway's. I was watching it on Freeview but I've lost the signal so watching it on iplayer as well
