    @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

    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!!

    @Hamnett_Time Hi Ben, Freeview Play won't be coming to our 2020 models as far as we're aware, but we are working with the broadcasters directly to support the individual UK catch-up apps. Our 2020 TVs already support BBC iPlayer, and... (1/3)

    @a516digital Ive reached the conclusion now, that reception in my location is poor, along with about 62 others. Dispite scripted advice from freeview. No it does not work. My parents live about a mile from me, they can get, oxford, sandy heath, crystal palace

    Freeview channel 53 crashed the smart tv. Google said unplug, and then said reflow the motherboard. Managed to solve it by pressing lots of buttons all at once whilst holding down the power button onto AV menu🍺

    Ministers are now using slow ultrafibre broadband rollout as reason to keep the licence fee until 2038! Rubbish! Without the live TV tax people could watch freeview. Meanwhile, it's on the rest of us to switch to on-demand and #DefundTheBBC by legally cancelling our TV licences.

  • cahillaudio Talanoatime (@cahillaudio) reported

    ... he was holding an old 4" battery b+w TV set with one channel and virtually unwatchable. He had lived that way for years.. Life hadn't been kind. It bugged me so I got online and ordered a sat dish and Freeview box that he could connect to a broken portable CD player he had...

    @LGUKCare @zhriszowen Same issue and I read the freeview issue was corrected? But nothing appears?!?!

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital As to freeview, better off talking to harry hill, they know absolute nothing about the problem i had. 4 times ive had this looked at now, because freeview passed my details on.
