  • StuN_UK StuN UK (@StuN_UK) reported from Sheffield, England

    @bowlestrek Get your facts straight. Johnson is not in favour of ditching the license fee, as he knows it’s a massive vote loser. Plus they’ve now realised, they can’t go to subscription fee system, as the freeview boxes that the majority of UK households use, don’t support it.

    @Alexand85266011 @femme_uk @GBNEWS Freeview isn't very reliable for me either. I'm only 10 miles [as the crow flies] from the South Yorkshire Transmitter, yet I can only receive 6 of the 15 HD channels available. BBC1, BBC2, ITV1, Channel 4, Channel 5 and CBBC. The signal quality/strength is on average 80%.

    @BuddClair As of this point, it looks as though there's no way we'll ever subscribe to a paid T.V. service like Sky or Virgin ever again. I'm happy to pay the licence fee as it stands, but Freeview's more than adequate, alongside Netflix and Spamazon.

  • a_shipl12 Anne Shipley (@a_shipl12) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice issues persist with Freeview inspite of retuning numerous times over past few days. Please enable messaging to customer services

    @M1KE_HARRIS Is your TV freeview, or freesat etc? How do you receive your signal? #All4

  • squat_betty Richard Sandling (@squat_betty) reported

    You think social media is bad for doom scrolling, try watching any Freeview TV ad break. Jesus Christ...

  • allypabdn AllyP (@allypabdn) reported

    @UladhGael @ClarNiUigin Here, it's channel 9 on Freeview but 115 on Sky. BBC Scotland. That's probably no help whatsoever though.

  • Dr_Jon John Michael Leslie (@Dr_Jon) reported

    @Theking06810787 @CountBinface I don't get this, it's never gone away on Freeview, just press the Text button on your TV's remote while on BBC1, BBC2 or BBCNews and you're good to go: Page ideas: 101 = News headlines 302 = Football Headlines 360 = F1 Headlines 400 = Weather

  • iamdanrice Dan Rice 🦖 (@iamdanrice) reported

    @AlixSocial Yeah the first time I got anything close was when freeview was launched! Literally never lived in a house with Sky

  • lilastromech mischajaye (@lilastromech) reported

    Is Freeview down in Liverpool at the moment?

  • _designblogger designblogger (@_designblogger) reported

    @virginmedia The works are conducted, but they never resolve issues. We still use FreeView, 5 days after the storm. The wifi speed is low, and pages keep crushing on laptop and phones.

  • JohnPHealy John Healy (@JohnPHealy) reported

    @stroughtonsmith @stacktracepod Hi there. I’ve just stumbled across this tweet, and I think this satellite TV app is something I need in my life! I’m looking for a way to access my saorview and freeview channels from any Apple TV on my network. Is that what this is? If so, I would be super interested.
