    @LuckyCedarlane @BBCAMERICA @ITV @itv2 @Channel4 @channel5_tv C5 is awful. All this is freeview too!

  • 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.

    @c25zbb24f6 @netblocks I can't even get normal TV apart from freeview, I'm in Premier inn, paid £5 for ultimate WiFi and can't even connect to the Internet never mind streaming.

    @virginmedia no broadband since 0730 on Tuesday - no engineer until Tuesday 11 April. Tv playing up too. What a Happy Easter treat. I am about to plug in my old rooftop aerial on Freeview for the weekend 😫

    @AmazonHelp Yes it's a known fault. I've spoken to the Toshiba UK support team a month ago and they told me there is an issue with your software causing issues with Freeview HD channels. They told me Amazon need to update the software. The TV has the latest software and has been returned.

    Prime Minister Liz Truss has announced domestic energy bills will be capped at £2,500 for two years from the start of 1 October as part of a support bill to ease cost of living. 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

    @TalkTV High people at Talktv Are you aware that you've been taken down on Amazon Prime, Amazon Fire Stick, internet, and YouTube. Don't know who you've upset, but the only TalkTV channel that's currently working is 522 on SKY, and Freeview. You need to sort this out guys.

    @SpeedStar_76 @BBCNews 'You can cancel your licence if you no longer: watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat) watch live on streaming services (e.g. ITVX, All 4, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Now, Sky Go) use BBC iPlayer*.'

    @_yowwwww Reminds me of my freeview recorder which, due to my bad signal, refuses to record a bunch of stuff

  • wpoel William Poel (@wpoel) reported

    @karlypants1 @UKTVPlayHelp One problem is that the Freeview platform involves too many cooks but no chef that will take overall responsibility for sorting this type of problem. Maybe a campaign for refunding the TV licence fee would get some attention?
