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…

You don’t realise how awful freeview is until your waiting for the sky man to come to your house 🥴

Part 2 of #TheLabourFiles now! Freeview 235 Al Jazeera. It’s painful watching footage of @jeremycorbyn being bullied & mobbed again. But @andrewfeinstein is great, condemning REAL,vile antisemitism & showing the dishonesty of labelling mere support for Palestinians as that.

@Page_888 @russty_russ When there's a cheaper alterative for a quarter of the price, and there's a cost of living crisis - it's an easy cutback. If I was Radio Times King, I'd make print edition Freeview channels only and try and get price down to £2. Would mean a lot of changes to get there.

@twodoorgeorge @SkyNews Are actually saying we're not being forced to pay this? If you have sky, virgin, bt, freeview or freesat you are forced to pay it. **** labour I hope they are never elected.

@StapletonAileen Channel 4 is down online, via the app and on Freeview. I don't think it's got anything to do with @virginhelp

@Stephen87495131 @SkyNews They will. So pay tv needs to go Nothing wrong with freeview. Don't buy or take contracts out on the dearest ipads. The Government help for utilities should have been means tested and increased. 100% increase is unaffordable. Food prices are rising especially essential foods.

@SatonmyButt @freesat_tv I pay 2.49 a month to remove ITV adverts. My Tv signal doesn’t work well enough for freeview anymore. It’s well worth it! Plus there is UKTV app with drama yesterday and Dave freeview channels (free but adverts)

@victoria_racing I had a weird one from a service group but to do with Kogan lack of service. Can't see Optus in this unless someone is listening. Or reading..all I want is an app fix. Not paying for fixing freeview

@FreeviewAdvice I was watching Challenge TV on Thursday evening on my TV with built-in Freeview. When I went to watch the same channel yesterday, a message “service is not running” appeared. Why has it been withdrawn without notice?

@ushasundaram @zombie_nun Don't stop watching just them. Never watch anything on the first page of the Freeview guide. It's a minor hassle but skipping down to The Smithsonian of PSB is worth it.
