@Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

@mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

Dear @Channel4 please can you add live streaming to your 4OD service. My Freeview signal is shocking and I'm missing Bake off and this is very distressing

@FreeviewAdvice My Freeview channels were broken up so I tried to retune, and only South TV channels came up & only BBC1, BBC2, BBC4 and the children's BBC channels. So I tried retuning again and I can find not ONE single channel. Please help me. Thanks

Any ideas why MiL’s @HisenseUK @Roku TV sometimes puts itself onto the Freeview Play page whilst watching her Sky Q box? Even did it to me as I was navigation TV settings. Maybe TV or remote control issues? Hopefully unplugging/replugging will simply be enough to fix it…

@The_East_End @LeeHurstComic Yep, over this way too. Even getting "white outs" on the TV set and neighbour had to add a dongle thingy to keep her laptop signal boosted enough to do course work. Guy who runs the shop who lives elsewhere, he says hes missing freeview channels, while i dont get any BBC at all

@Ste15375723Mark @MartinSLewis @GMB FWIW I think most likely outcome is the licence fee will be kept as the least worst option. Advertising is non-starter as it would destroy ITV/C4/C5's revenue. Subscription isn't possible for Freeview/radio. Bundling in with tax would be spun badly for the gov.

@sallythomsett Hahaha ! Cutting it a bit fine- typical ! Hope he has resolved the problem. There's a brill new drama about the Mitford sisters on right now, on freeview 20- it's called "Outrageous." xxx

@crusaders1898 @andrewhdonohoe @Saraita101 No because it's called Saorview here, uses slightly different technology and doesn't carry BBC channels, only RTÉ and a few other domestic channels. Freeview, the UK system, is available in border areas where the signal leaks over the border, impossible to change.

@Adam373032869 I like it sometimes but the picture quality on freeview is very poor for some reason, almost like its underpowered.

@liampdwyer Thanks for getting back to us, Liam. This service can be accessed on freeview on channel 236, or if you're watching on the app. If it's hardly working, it'll be best to reset your TV box, and possibly your broadband.
