    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

    @alexbloor RT isn't closed down. It may have been removed on freesat, freeview but it still seems to be on the interweb

  • damo_war
    damo_war (@damo_war) reported

    @NiceEtoile @RadioTimes It's truly dreadful now. Unusable. The channels don't align with the listings, no way to click out of expanded details, 'internal error' if you select freesat/freeview listings etc. There never was a problem with load times, or 'accidental hover'.

  • MickeyMcCartney

    @StevenFlavell1 I've lost that channel the last time I did a retune of Freeview, signal is always very weak Oop North. BAH!

  • SnapeHugh
    hugbilly (@SnapeHugh) reported

    @RadioTimes Thanks for the reply and I understand the intention. What is slightly more annoying is that the site no longer allows one to set a default service provider (i.e. Sky or Freesat.) I use Freeview and it used to be that once I'd selected that service as the provider the page would

    Pops has his TV back, and me turning Router off @ night, safety reasons, is the reason his box went wrong. It needs updating during night. Bloody stupid. My Freeview lets me know when I need to update. More electricity on, when not needed. Bills going up.

    Jay Hill (@triplemeister) reported from Downham Market, England

    @R59V8 I don't know what we pay, so I don't know how good a deal we get. But at least with Freeview you are close enough to the big mast to get no issues. Up here it is terrible - The slightest tropo and it's unwatchable

    WhatNow (@SonnerSounds) reported

    The @RadioTimes website used to be great, now it's terrible. Used to be able to hover over a programme and get a summary, now have to click through. Doesn't remember if you are Freeview or whatever.

    @Fibutton Which TV service do you use? Really is available on Freeview 17, Freesat 160, Sky 142, Virgin 129 and discovery+ UK.

    Watching a jaw-droppingly saccharine krimi on some freeview channel featuring crime-busting nun #SisterBonniface clearing up the phenomenally high murder rates in a twee 50s English village that makes #Midsomer look like 70s New York. Hypnotically horrible.

    @k1482 @AvonandsomerRob The good lord commonsense. It's about budgets and budgeting. Freeview TV is .... free. So you can't deny it would help household finances, especially for those who are cash-strapped; whether they are employed by the state or not.
