    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

    @JeremyVineOn5 The BBC is a fantastic organization. The problem with finding a future funding model is that there aren't many other ways to fund it. For example You can't do subscription because freeview and radio don't have conditional access technology on them

  • johnmfitzp John Fitzpatrick (@johnmfitzp) reported

    @scottygb It’s 2 weeks of the year, plus everyone has IPlayer and numerous other channels on Freeview/Freesat and Virgin etc etc. They need to get a grip. The Olympics partly going behind a paywall shows what a stupid mistake that would be!

    @ClarksonsFarm1 Quite simply, it's a subscription that you pay to use your freeview service. However, unlike other paid TV services, it is still possible to access those services even if you don't pay.

  • ShoyebJeeva Shoyeb Jeeva (@ShoyebJeeva) reported

    I'm the only one here on X who seems to be experiencing issues with #freeview, they said that there were engineering works taking place at the Tower so the TV would keep going black or buffering.
