@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.

You need to have a webpage showing realtime Freeview problems. It's a huge waste of time trying to guess if Freeview is working in tropo affected parts of the country. @FreeviewAdvice @Ofcom

@aitchstone Hi 👋 We upgraded our tech to offer more content and improve our overall app experience. A big part involved updating our content protection to keep our shows copyright-safe. This tech is not supported by some Freeview devices and is no longer compatible to support the ITVX app.

@virginmedia Last I looked, inflation was at 10%, not over 30%. ‘Excellent value for money’ is a claim only customers can make, not you. We mostly watch the BBC and Netflix, so why pay 4 x what Netflix charge when there’s Freeview and iPlayer for a hundred channels that never get watched?

Our Freeview has completely crashed - no signal on any channel. Is it just us? @AboutEG

@NMBCo @hardistymark Pretty sure East Midlands Today is a standard definition signal slapped into an HD channel. Just got freeview to save money, back to the ol’ ‘High Def not available in your area’ message. If we want to see our news broadcasters in high def, we have to see them down the pub.

No freeview signal again. So annoying because we can watch online but you have to know which channel you want to go onto.
