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!!

@KarmaUnc @GMB @joshwiddicombe Yes, but the BBC is a significant contributor to Arquiva who own the masts. They also support Freeview and Freesat.

@LemSip27 No some idiot left an item at the station so it had to be checked and it wasn't suspicious. Freeview has been having problems for months with various transmitters or relays going down throughout the UK

@pde62 @Bazza315 @AvonandsomerRob "I think charities should have the power to take away people's TV packages on pain of starvation, while the government - instead of them proper support - installs Freeview. Because my brain is mush and assume they don't have this already, but I want to punish the poor further"

@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'.

@Yekki_1 Use Freeview box with antenna where you can get a convenient signal and check the remote will work at that distance, then hdmi wireless extender to your TV. Not elegant though.

@StevieClaridge @ichoosemag Dave Hills Dave kills where funny fringed guitarist hunts down comedians who have appeared on the freeview channel. Not suitable for family viewing.

@PurplejelloS @itvnews I was watching terrestrial TV via an aerial on #Freeview before #ThisMorning went off air and the TV signal kept going, I lost all channels so I'm not sure it was down to TV centre....

@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
