    The #5g nonsense is awful. People setting fire to masts serving critical communications is madness. The frequency used in 5g has been redeployed from tv / freeview but still considerably lower power. 5g’s only side effect is faster & lower latency mobile internet #5gconspiracy

    Hadn't realised rural Freeview was still so terrible compared to in metropolitan areas. I get 80 Freeview channels in Dudley nr Birmingham, Dad gets 21 in South Shropshire! And doesn't even get Sky News which I assumed was on Freeview everywhere.

    @virginmedia tried to upgrade to one of ur TV packages but hopeless customer service and penalised for being an existing customer. £57 for basically what is freeview TV is a shameful price when it's on offer from £29 to new customers. I'll stick with my @amazonfiretv

    @RupertLowe10 Why a subscription service? All the channels on Freeview manage.

    @FreeviewAdvice Film 4 is not showing information in device channel guide. Looking on Freeview website, film 4 guide is also blank. Same issue next Friday (17th Feb) from 1.30am. What is the issue?

  • birthofthetrue Maria S / @birthofthetrue@kolektiva.social (@birthofthetrue) reported

    @CymraegDoctor @S4C It wd be good if could choose subtitles in Welsh on S4C on iplayer, wd help lots to be able to read along, but doesn't seem to be an option as viewer in England? (Used to pick up s4c on old terrestrial telly, but not now on digital/freeview)

  • Mide Midé (@Mide) reported

    Hold on...is it me or have they made Non-HD channels terrible on purpose? Is it supposed to upsell everybody to get smart TVs and Freeview?

  • uncriticalsimon Simon 🤖 (@uncriticalsimon) reported from Newport, Wales

    Why is the BBC World Service so hard to obtain EXCEPT in the one area which is explicitly not the target audience? In the UK the World Service is available 24/7 on DAB and I think Freeview and Freesat/Sky.

    @_DanielRyan My Samsung TV displays ITVX under Freeview button but when you click on it it tries to connect you to ITV hub and then tells you your device doesn't support ITVX 🙄
