@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.

@FreeviewAdvice Freeview TV reception has been awful in Portsmouth for months. It's getting worse. Please do something about it, your service is a joke.

@GoonerWaffle @LauraKirk12 Just a quick pointer from an Icelandic native, you can get the Freeview channels here if you get your internet service through a company called Kapalvæðing.

@DanielFooksArt Twitter's a bit like flicking through Freeview channels. Most of it is crap, some of it is harmful but occasionally it's educational or even uplifting. It's also the top venue to make a **** of yourself after 1 too many shandies.

@Buzzjunkie29 @andalg1 I know I've been banging on about this for ages, a cup final in Scotland on Sunday and nothing on the Freeview network yet tonight the choice of two English cup matches, it's ******* awful.

@space_librarian @libmichelle We never went above BBC Four on Freeview, unless it’s a hop to Cbeeies - thank god that worked. Our home-made internet was actually better than the BT provider, but our booster aerials were in the church spire and the pub… which made Teams calls weird in lockdown

@AboutEG Might be worth following @DowndetectorUK. You will get alerts for things you don't care about, but it was a great early warning for today's Twitter problems, and that recent Freeview outage - answers the "is it just me?" question.

Absolutely stupid that Amazon has made watching Parcs and Recreation now almost unbearable to watch because even though you still have prime you still have to watch it through their Freeview service so there's no way to get rid of the ads...
