    @gsouthy @ingl Not had @SkyUK or @Virgin TV for years.. Enough crap and repeats on terrestrial TV without paying for even more from companies like these.. Freeview and @NetflixUK gives us enough entertainment, and for less..

    @LeafNetSco @cordbusters Hi Blake, Freeview and Freesat fall under the same Umbrella, however we operate as two entities as there is slight differences with equipment, signal delivery and channel location from Freeview to Freesat. Freeview currently do not offer Spotlight TV.

    @LindaC29022195 Hi, Linda. I can't speak for every box but generally, you should be able to watch recordings on a box when there's no Freeview signal. Fraser

    @BBCiPlayerForum anyone help with solutions for how I can get iPlayer working again on my freeview TV? Not fire stick or Roku apps etc. get error 02056 (think it’s that number). I’ve logged out and back on, removed and reinstalled but still no luck. TIA

    @LeadTestInclude We canned Virgin to go with Freeview plus Now Entertainment package. Still fairly cheap I guess. Just about enough programming that isn’t covered elsewhere. The NowTV box we have is rubbish. Awful interface (but it works - no channel numbers for freeview channels)

  • oldwarrenpoint Brian McCalmont (@oldwarrenpoint) reported

    @wilsondan @VodafoneUK @GeorgeMonbiot To be honest its actually the best network here (but not by much) Next choice from locals I have previously had conversations with is 3. We are in a "geographically challenged" area. We still only get basic Freeview telly for example - but we do get RTE so I dunno....

    @MrAbelMagwitch A lot of University students also have access to "Box of Broadcasts" an online catchup service which can show tv programs from all the main freeview channels... they can stream BBC content on without needing a TV license.

  • Bobbiburnss bubbles (@Bobbiburnss) reported

    I’m ditching Virgin - I’m being fed repeats & Bullshit TV….much of which is on Freeview & Free-sat etc., what is going on? Terminated my contract over a yr ago in writing and they ignored me? No landline 4 over a yr. WTF? And the Legalities? I’m going Commando!

  • phil_thy_bstard Phil'thy B'stard (@phil_thy_bstard) reported

    @furbabygirl Things are going to be so bad for me this winter that I am going to have to forsake my upgrade to a Crapple iPhone 15 pro plus and watch Freeview instead of HULU, paramount +, Netflix and SKY Sport. I don't think I will survive past Grimbletide!

    @AlexKane221b You will be pleased to learn that the Freeview Christmas movie season starts really early on 8th September, probably channel 52. 95% will be pretty awful but there will always be a few gems.
