James Pepperd (@2013jamiepep) reported from St Helens, EnglandI don't have an ariel or freeview I rely on your piece of shit @virginmedia #VirginMedia

Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England@jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

decryption (@decryption) reportedNow none of the catch-up apps work. Like the option to load them via Freeview just isn’t there despite the option for HbbTV turned on. Did another factory reset and still not there??? Piece of ****. Gonna buy a 4K Apple TV and use that.
-
Bobby Low 🇬🇧 (@BobbyLo24733369) reported@DawnieR2 @GBNEWS Can you get the App, or sky tv?. The freeview is pretty bad.
-
EB B260 (@B260Eb) reported@AnnSkelly3 Don't go for Virgin, it's awful. The woman I work for was with sky and paying a fortune. One of the other staff recommended virgin, think it was because she got £50 for recommending it. All freeview channels are now gone. So called Free virgin channels are terrible
-
Alan Royston (@pagechord) reported@simonnread I've struck lucky today, normally Talking Pics pixelates. Will record and watch later. Ever since they tinkered with Freeview the signal has been appalling. Laurel & Hardy still funny to this day.
-
oh no (@CMACYT) reported@JimityBlack @matharu_gaurav @kieraneverson Well true but whatever freeview package i saw it on didn’t have an hd version of gb news available and it looked horrible
-
Rexy (@Rexymorgano) reported@jimwaterson Dont forget shutting down. Their sky and freeview slots are worth money. I give it until end of August.
-
blow 2021 (@hexodecimal) reported@afneil @GBNEWS The channel is too much of the same for my liking. Good to see you on TV again but your signal isn't strong enough for me to get it on Freeview

DJ Midarezaki, Esq. 🇬🇧🇭🇰➡️ #LivesMatter (@DJMidarezaki) reportedHi @news_ntd Not sure what has happened to your streaming server but it now stalls so often to be unwatchable, and your feed to Channelbox (Freeview 271) is of ridiculously low resolution the picture looks so blurry.
