    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.

    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

    @itv please fix the glitch that’s making our picture jump. Happening across all Sky channels, normal freeview, but not on freeview HD. Also goes away during ad breaks

    @VAS6323 Speaking as someone with ONLY terrestrial TV I find I spend most of my life watching Freeview repeats, weekends are the WORST and as for this fffg football on all channels ALL DAY................

    @AdamP1242 I don't understand how they couldn't just switch the channel? I'm struggling to work out what the problem was. It's literally just a freeview menu.

    Channel 728, Heart, has been added to COM5 (was unlisted [Service 0x5880]) #Freeview

    @joeb_EY Analog TV has, I think, now been switched off everywhere, so you'll need to access Freeview. Check with your neighbours whether they get a Freeview signal - mountains can be pesky (bad enough where I am with gentle hills!). I solved it by getting a Roku Express to convert...

    @TheDaiLlew It took me so long to get out of being a Virgin customer. I eventually got out of the grind by getting a satellite dish installed via BT (as a new customer for the a year) then buying a Freeview box. Now I just have to get the Internet from somewhere and can shop around. Pob lwc!

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi! I bought a new jvc TV and tuned my freeview but there are no channels before 12. It says scanning complete. I have another tv in another room and my freeview channels start from 1. Hope you can help. Thanks!
