@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.

@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.

@ShiregreenOwl @teresadg0 The online services are definitely a big contributor, I agree. But a dedicated 24 hr news service on Freeview is far more accessible for many, and that will have an impact

@JennALT_01angel Didn’t really used to watch Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! as an infant, since we had no cable. I was just a modern Freeview guy. But, we got our first cable company in 2010, Sky. It was amazing but the price was unbelievable. But, WHO GIVES A ****???

@FreeviewTV Why can’t Crystal Palace tower reach DA17? Ariel engineer put my aerial to Woolwich because of CP tower not providing a decent service. Yet your website says we should receive perfect Freeview. I am currently only getting clear picture & sound on 8 of 148 channels

@IanCornwell6 @GBNEWS I'm screwed. Don't have Sky or any other paid for service & only get limited freeview service due to our location. Looks like we won't be able to get @GBNEWS. To be honest though, I'm just glad it'll be there, hopefully challenging some of the ridiculous shite that's happening.

@virginmedia we contacted you yesterday to say our WiFi is down! You tell us you can’t get an engineer until Sat! It’s ridiculous! You owe us more then just money off our next bill! We have no tv as have no freeview and have to use our mobile data for that long is unacceptable!
