    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

  • richard__webb Richard Webb (@richard__webb) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @GBNEWS i was so looking forward to it. But… on freeview the picture quality is really poor, sound is out of sync, and just feels like the sets are dark and badly lit. Took my focus away from listening to whats being projected. #GBNews

    @Channel4, you guys aware that on Virgin cable, @PackedLunchC4 has a black line at top of image (like image has been moved down). Doesn't effect adverts or other C4 channels. Also seems fine on Freeview!

  • back_the_BBC Back the BBC 📺📻📡📱 (@back_the_BBC) reported

    @MrJohnNicolson @CommonsDCMS How would a subscription model for Channel 4 even work? It's delivered free, over the air. Its only value is its freeview slot, which has to be funded by advertising or sponsorship. It could develop a subscription service, but anyone could do that now without buying Channel 4.

    Woeful service from @skytv Time to change to freeview. You call customer services before 9. But no one wants to talk. So you get cut off 4 times. Poor CS.

    @OrdinaryGamers C'mon, I saw this **** advertised on TV all the time when I still had Freeview.

  • TheDailySledge William (@TheDailySledge) reported

    @dilusionalworld @glenpen60 @SkyNewsAust I have never watched it, we use the the station block of so I don't have to deal with tabloid TV BS, the station was a failure on pay-per-view so had to move to Freeview to get anyone to watch the biased BS their shock-jocks waffle on about, watching it can give you brain damage

    @soniasodha @SkyNews @anitabboateng There's no magic money tree. You'll never get on GB News (freeview 236) unless you can comment practically on these issues.

  • UKurbanite UK Urbanite (@UKurbanite) reported

    @DefundBBC The problem with a subscription service, it that it needs subscription hardware. When Freeview first appeared, receivers often included a card slot, allowing encrypted channels to be decoded. If similar functionality still exists, I've seen no sign of it.

  • andythelodge andy (@andythelodge) reported from Clifton, England

    @333peterobinson I've had nothing but problems viewing @RacingTV since they made me have @amazon Firestick due to no longer available on freeview

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @WASPCommander Sadly we don't control your signal strength, you need to speak with your service provider, who should be able to advise you/help you. Is its Freeview? Freeview advice line on 03456 505050.
