@itvnews I complained about that awful erectile disfunction advert that appears on some Freeview channels, sometimes in the day & at teatimes, when kids will be watching & they didn't do anything! They said it was fine. It's not nice when young grandkids ask what erectile disfunction is!

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.

@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…

@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.

15/ I withdrew my FREEVIEW content that never earned its keep, and essentially cost me a roof over my head. And yes I was bitter that one video accidentally went out for free, as it has cost me bricks that would have been something towards a deposit at least.

@TalkingPicsTV Question - I normally watch you via Virgin - where I know I can't access Encore (yet) but put my (Samsung) TV on Freeview last night and got a "TPTVEncore is not available on this device" message when I pressed red. Is it a Samsung issue?

If you bought your smart tv or Freeview/freesat receiver more than 4 or 5 years ago, and haven’t tried ITV Hub recently, check you can still get into it. If you can’t, chances are you won’t be able to get the new ITVX service.

First time watching live sport on @VMSportIE @VirginMediaIE and again the picture quality is beyond bad. How are we still in this place where basic HD on freeview isn't a thing? You can't see player numbers on the wide view. #IREvRSA #Rugby

I'll watch both MKR AU and Fair Go on TVNZ+ @agitopop @kstew70 because the Freeview signal is bad, so I'll watch it on Catch up, same goes for FBoy Island.

@IanSlaterPhoto1 @VixThatRuns I have a sizeable Samsung. Ditched Virgin Media, the plan was to have Freeview. The tv doesn’t support Freeview!
