    @MariaMichalis @All4 C4 is in talks to join Britbox... and you get surveillance on any streaming service, even ad funded. That’s how they can target the ads and tell you where your nearest car dealership is (new in All4). Only Freeview lets you keep anonymity

  • Philipbutcher1 Philip butcher (@Philipbutcher1) reported from Reading, England

    @GBNEWS Is anybody else having signal issues on Freeview channel 236? The signal is weaker than all the other news channels.

    @deedee10780561 Hehe. I have freeview only as I resented paying for 10000 channels I never watch 😂😂

    So here's a thing, would the argument, Freeview is advertised as free and never mentions the required TV Licence stand up in a Court? Afterall, it's out there enforcing the false statement, "It's FREE" #DefundTheBBC

    @ElaineKirk @another_jan @canadiancarol1 Yes, that is what I watch it on, if you have a smart TV there is possibly some way of doing it through Freeview or other catch up service? Unfortunately I don’t have a smart TV, just an old one that sat silently in a corner when I stopped watching tv in disgust years ago!

    I have tried a few times to get GB news on my television up here in Perth Scotland but been unable successful. I have freeview and I believe it is channel 236 I also have a smart TV and digital aerial so that shouldn't be an issue ,has anyone else been having the same issue ?

  • Geoff_NUFC GPM (@Geoff_NUFC) reported

    @JustCraggles @virginmedia @BlueYonder I had the same, went from paying £40 a month to nearly £70. Dropped the TV because its ****, I was on the basic TV which is pretty much freeview. Went to sky for TV and was going to take the sky broadband until they gave me a reduced price. Its worth complaining about.

    @FreeviewAdvice Why is HD on Freeview no where near as good a resolution as on cable?

  • thisisrjg Dr Jamiebear 🐻 (@thisisrjg) reported

    @merseytart @MrsSimonTemplar Broadband here at my mum’s went down earlier today. I have no idea at all how to navigate her complex system of Freeview tv with no aerial attached to Freeview+ recorder with aerial that appears to supply her tv with pictures. With her Roku stick and Echo down, I sat in silence.

    @NicGreenshields @afneil @GBNEWS You may need to retune your tv or box. You may simply have poor signal. But also- GB News is not available on freeview in all parts of the U.K. In which case- You will need to watch it on sky, freesat, or online.

  • Raxor1Robin Robin Taylor (At home 🏡) (@Raxor1Robin) reported

    Just got some co-axile connecters for my #freeview problem modern ones are not as wide, so they don't work, wish I still had that box of them I had in 1985 but they got lost when we moved house back then. #OhDear

  • aging_hacker JD (@aging_hacker) reported

    @GBNEWS .. Can you fix the sound levels on freesat and freeview please , your station is significantly quieter than others, after watching you, flipping to other channels blows my head off. Also studio sound like someone hasn't removed the plastic bag from around the new microphone 😡 .
