    @mawju5 the worst era was before i had freeview. just 5 sad channels so ghetto😭 they would put on like 2 hrs of cbbc and that was it skjsjsnsns i sufferedd

  • DaveWales15 Dave Wales (@DaveWales15) reported

    @AndrewM2p4c @andymcgowan001 They have to pay to broadcast via transmitters. They pay for the BBC national dab multiplex. I can't imagine subtracting one station from it saves much. They have to pay freeview, sky and freesat too. Personally I never listen to it through my tv.

    @tjtex26 BBC1 was a bad example but Sky 1 isn't part of Freeview is it, as far as I can see if you want Sky Sports through sky and not now TV you need to have sky's contract for Sky 1 etc

    @katiephipps some people really don’t get it, netflix can cost nearly £16 a month whereas freeview costs nothing, getting rid of cbbc is just another kick in the teeth for low-income. i don’t think some people understand what it means to be poor it makes me so angry

  • Nigelh7n Nigel Hurneyman (@Nigelh7n) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice I've retuned my freeview decoder and got the 41/69 Horror/CBS justice swap. But I've also lost 64 Freesports and 77 Now 80s. I can't see that on your site anywhere. My postcode is HP13 and I'm on the Greater London signal.

  • RainbowChazer Music is my first love. And it will be my last. (@RainbowChazer) reported

    @stuffierescue Disconnect on Thursday, reconnect on Friday? We were without internet for weeks here, and Freeview too as the TV aerial was broken. Have I told human about the 6 month hassle to get £25 out of British Telecom because I was moving out of area although staying with them?

    Bad news - the family I'm babysitting for only have @FreeviewTV No offense to Freeview, but how am I going to watch the @ChampionsLeague now? Plan B is my @btsportfootball on my ipad, but need to find WIFI & password to facilitate that. Especially if it goes to ET & penalties
