@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!

@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.

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…

@FreeviewAdvice Thank you, but this still doesn't answer my question. My question was does Freeview itself (i.e. the management of Freeview) not have the authority to remove certain TV channels if they think another broadcaster could provide a better service for both Freeview and the public?

@adam_markson Channel 100 provide viewers with information regarding Freeview and our phone number so if there are any issues with their service they can phone us to try and resolve them. This has been proven to be very useful for people. Thanks, Dylan

Horror channel no longer on Freeview and replaced by Legend channel.. I knew this was going to happen after RT News got the boot. I just can imagine the christofascists taking over the media saying it was demonic and **** … reality has become the horror channel

@lilfatkitten @virginmedia @harminderd82 It’s not easy is it. Customer service was so condescending too, fella I spoke too, just wow! Also told me I could not use the freeview that’s built into the tv, which I now know is utter rubbish. They need training
