    @ben_quick With Sky Glass, if you cancel the subscription there's a freeview tuner so it'll work... But yeah, understand the hesitancy there

  • Kimisgloves Argyle Jack (@Kimisgloves) reported

    @always_argyle12 @only1argyle Cause ArgyleTV is a joke and Radio Devon never put us on freeview

  • LaurenceBraith1 Laurence Braithwaite (@LaurenceBraith1) reported

    Anyone else finding that their #Freeview signal has substantially weakened 🤔 Found recently that terrestrial channels are inexplicably disappearing from our smart TV. Not sure if they've weakened the signal to save energy. We're in South Birmingham.

    @MrKennethClarke I never watch Question time because I am always asleep at that time but I leave the TV on but on any other channel except the BBC on Freeview. @MrKennethClarke

    @elonmusk I am not paying. I never subscribe to tv that requests monthly installments. They always go up. I go for freeview. Likewise with twitter I want freeview of it or I shall stick with Gab.

  • Gers89_ Greegsy's Gloves (@Gers89_) reported

    @tattoo_stew69 Their box is like one of those freeview boxes from about 10-15 years ago. No apps on it or anything. Poor selection of channels, reception was terrible and kept cutting out. They were bastards about trying to move back to Sky (even though they have a 14 day cooling off period)

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie 🇺🇦 (@Brekkietweets) reported

    Frankly Freeview has been run like our train network with us now still predominantly stuck in SD and closing HD muxes whilst the rest of the world is moving on to 4K.

    @RacingFlamingo Heard it for years about Channel 4. Heard it for years about ITV since they took over. Mute and just watch the races. The day racing isn’t on freeview tv it’ll do big damage. The producer and team call the “shots”. It’s entertainment not a stand alone racing channel specific.

    @RestoreTVHelp I’ll post your response into the Facebook Group in question. There are about 6 people reporting recent problems with Freeview through an aerial in Llantwit Major. I’ve put a generic postcode for the town into your checker and it’s an area which should have received your postcards

  • FiredupOnline We Are Firedup.Online (@FiredupOnline) reported

    £50+ a month for @skytv so decided to buy a smart tv and get freeview & Netflix instead for 1/4 the price. 15+ yrs a sky customer and not one call to ask why, just a letter to tell me to reset up DD #terriblecustomerservice Adios
