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…

@dedado6 @GBNEWS No, Freeview and Freesat are different. Freeview is a digital terrestrial service and is received via a TV aerial. Freesat is a satellite service and is received via a satellite dish. The channels are largely the same but there are differences.

@Philips It's buggered! Freeview Play and all its associated Apps have all stopped, producing error FVP-300 and FVP-400. Even the @RakutenTV app has stopped. Can you do an urgent fix, please? This is caused from your recent update and many people are affected.

@Mikalisyid My contract with Sky ended last month & I never renewed. 17 years a customer & I finally had enough. We have Amazon Prime, Netflix, Freeview & so far we’ve literally not noticed it gone as a family. I had the full Sky Q package for £65 so did have a good deal but glad it’s gone.

@Joeby52 We have Netflix,Amazon Prime as well as the numerous Freeview channels. Why would anyone be as thick as to watch that Woke crap. Anyway,Lammy and Henry said they don’t want white peoples money so I’m just obeying their instructions

@FreeviewTV Hi, I’ve had problems with my freeview feed for about a year in the Medway area. It was pixelated for a while and had only channels from no.12 onwards, then no signal again. Later worked for a few days, now no programmes for ages now and retuning doesn’t work.

Has anyone else got the Apple TV. Connection for their TV? It’s a nightmare and the worst possible way to watch TV. EE have given up their excellent system so I has no choice. Talk about long winded routes to watch. Mostly we have gone back to Freeview in the TV.

@TaraGrace_ I live in the north (in a city) and can’t even get many UK freeview channels because My service comes through a relay transmitter!
