    @Virgin how do I go about leaving Virgin because I'm paying roughly £63.50 a month for a phone that I never use only to ring you up when there's a problem.. most of my viewing is on Freeview now and I have Amazon HD fire stick and Netflix account

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

    internet’s been down for days and been trapped with my 4G and Freeview and all that’s been on the tv on repeat is ANCIENT ASTRONOUT SCIENTISTS BELIEVE

  • StaughtonMoore DJ Moo (@StaughtonMoore) reported

    @Channel4 terrible clicking noise on the England match Live on freeview. Seems to be on the 4od stream too

  • 1doublehandful ⓀⒶⓏ👷🏼‍♀️🇺🇦 (@1doublehandful) reported

    Not had use of @RacingTV for 10 days now. Their technical dept couldn’t help despite trying. All apps work fine bar RTV. I’m paying £25 a month to watch a black screen or frozen pixels. It’s Freeview all over again. Going to have to reluctantly cancel it. Frustrating!

    The fire knocked out TV, radio and other telecommunications services on 10th August 2021. It affected TV viewers in many parts of County Durham, Teesside and North Yorkshire. Households are being supplied Freeview TV signals through a network of temporary masts until next year.

    @Jonesta1 @virginmedia Cheers Jo - we're already sorted! I'm just aghast at their attitude towards an elderly customer with 30 yrs unbroken loyal custom. We've got him a new Freeview TV, new aerial and he's absolutely chuffed. VM are arrogant enough to think that no one will cancel🙄

  • PeterYorke7 Peter Yorke (@PeterYorke7) reported

    @NoContextBrits 'Videonet' was the first landline digital TV box I had, replaced by freeview and now a firestick, never had bsb sky virgin....

  • he1entweets Helen M (@he1entweets) reported

    @Mike_Fabricant Too busy slagging off @BorisJohnson to report real news . Thankfully we have Aljazeera News on freeview as we would never easily find out what is going on in the world and how it affects us here at home from BBC/SKY non news channels.

    @RastusMk2 I only have Freeview TV Never anything worthwhile to watch any day of the week

  • a516digital Mike (@a516digital) reported

    @isleofmanbbctv @hischeekiness But not (yet) from an Isle of Man transmitter. If you are *currently* receiving CBeebies HD on Freeview, you're picking up a signal from the UK, as COM7 does not broadcast on any of the island's transmitters. CBBC HD on the other hand does, it's on the PSB3 multiplex.
