    @JamesTurner37 OK, having done this myself: yes you can access e g., BBC via a Firestick OR you can buy a smart TV that already has the terrestrial channels and Anazon etc installed. You may require an aerial for Freeview depending on the local signal. 1/

    @paramountco your @My5_tv service needs a lot of work doing on it it keeps freezing and not starting programs from the catch-up menu on Freeview play.

  • Starrygem4 DianeB ♀️ (@Starrygem4) reported

    @isamutlib @neilmorrison @virginmedia What broadband do you use? I have smart TV and firesticks on other tvs but still need broadband. I'm paying for just basic channels that I can get on freeview too and a phone line I never use 😕 Tempted to lose the phone line & tv and just keep basic broadband

  • ThisIsKateL Kate (@ThisIsKateL) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam please give your engineers better training. Twice in the last year they've disconnected my entire block of flats from the (freeview) aerial when connecting someone to Sky Q, it's taking me months and ££ to fix their mistakes.

  • Starrygem4 DianeB ♀️ (@Starrygem4) reported

    @nerans1 @virginmedia Same here. I can get the channels I watch on freeview anyway. Having the option to record is the only reason I was hanging on but my tivo box is crap and keeps failing and I can get everything on the smart TV apps anyway. @virginmedia taking the p#$$

  • Starrygem4 DianeB ♀️ (@Starrygem4) reported

    @AdamT_78 @virginmedia Yep. Just had the same email...mine is going up £12. I've only got basic TV package. I can get those channels on freeview. Its worse! From Apr 2024 because we know the rate is going up regularly at the same time every year by RPI +3.9% we won't have the 'right to cancel' 😡

  • bellerby1963 Nigel Cox (@bellerby1963) reported

    @virginmedia @AdamT_78 Excellent value for money ! I am a loyal customer (mug) of many years standing, about to pay £75/month for internet/phone/and a TV package with less channels than Freeview ! Expect a phone call off me to finally end the relationship.

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @PaperCowboys I’m afraid that’s almost impossible. But have you spoken to Freeview? @FreeviewTV can you help please?

  • Guy21Nerdy Joshua (@Guy21Nerdy) reported

    @niall_gooch 5 USA (Way down on freeview). Seems to be on as a double bill at weekends, so probably one to record.
