  • Robbo72uk Andy Roberts (@Robbo72uk) reported from Southport, England

    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

    "Freeview" now becomes "Everyone Television" Most people will still call it Freeview won't they? And like it or not we will be forced in time to receive TV(and yes radio)via a streaming service. As BT and the G'ment are phasing out landlines.

    @virginmedia i will give credit to your guy on the phone desperate to try and keep me as a customer, and you have nothing for 15yrs loyalty other than a tv package we call freeview elsewhere, slower speeds and a landline i haven't used in 10yrs.

    @smartin The version of C4 HD on Freesat and Freeview is the London ad region. This means C4 HD isn't eligible to move to 104 until the regional variants of C4 HD are added to Freesat, so it matches the current SD service.

    @Brekkietweets @FreeviewTV ITV2 HD not being on freeview is just damn annoying, having to watch through the HD stream via ITV X is a faff

  • stanyanfan49 Roy Kelly (@stanyanfan49) reported

    @lizwoodcraft @TalkingPicsTV Probably shown again. But also on Freeview 82 red button, if you have smart tv, on their catch up service.

    @ITSBIGTONE @FreeviewTV Thanks for the reply Tony. Freeview have been in touch to help me resolve the problem. So🤞.

  • IanRedman11 Ian Redman (@IanRedman11) reported

    @Brekkietweets @FreeviewTV Freeview is massively stuck in an SD slow lane, and by far the weakest of the TV platforms. Freesat is definitely the better of the two major free TV providers.
