@Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

@Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

The best thing about having my phone contract and home internet with @ThreeUK is that when it goes down in my area I get to sit in the dark with a cold cup of tea and watch Freeview.

@soapachu The fact that they're hogging valuable bandwidth on Freeview will never not infuriate me. In a saner world they'd not exist and Talking Pictures would have the budget and spectrum space to go HD.

@FreeviewAdvice Thanks for all your help, no reply, no dm, no reply on Facebook and completely useless. Worst advice line, worst customer service, worst everything. @OmbudsmanUK can you help with why my street has no freeview and no help to answer why?

@CrabbyValiant @back_the_BBC That's starting to change: Anyone with a Sky Glass TV no longer needs to turn over, as the HD service is fully regionalised. Virgin Media and iPlayer users are up next for the upgrade. Sky, Freesat and Freeview due to be upgraded before the end of 2022.

@Hrawli @cowell64807 I got rid of cable/satellite TV few years back. Was ridiculous paying £30 extra a month for what you get for free with Freeview. Sky wanted to put a dish in part of the building that would look horrible. I pay £32 a month for internet & a phone line rental.
