    @Sonic_Sinclair @bbcmicrobot Technically it is, there's support for it in DVB. There's several channels on DVB satellite that uses it, not sure there's any on freeview. Certainly all the original services shutdown or moved to MHEG. The BBC mheg service was incredible but that's shutdown now too 🙁

    I got my current TV 2 years ago and having no Internet this morning I've just had to learn how to navigate the regular TV side of it instead of streaming. The selection of stuff on offer is shockingly bad on Freeview. 😱 At least I can still listen to @KerrangRadio! 🤘

  • swansonian Graeme Swanson (@swansonian) reported

    I’ve tried to set up my mum’s new Freeview box and it’s not working. I suspect it’s me not the box. Everything online about it brushes over it in a way that suggests only the very stupid wouldn’t know how to do it.

  • VikShah Vik (yeah, that one) 💙 (@VikShah) reported

    @timglanfield Very much depends on the price of the service and whether there's anything else on the channel to justify it. If it was included with Prime or Netflix then yes, but maybe not if it's on something naff like BritBox. I'd rather it went to a Freeview channel such as E4.

    @FreeviewTV My freeview down all day. Just went off at 9sm this morning and still off. Have tried retuning etc no success! York area. What is the problem?

  • iMcWarner Jay (@iMcWarner) reported

    @virginmedia @SkyUK Virgin media up your game, 20 minutes queuing to speak to customer service about a price improvement, offered another 18 month contract with less services than I have for £60pm and most of the TV is on freesat/freeview. Sky do more for £45pm, You can do better

  • rowec1 Chris (@rowec1) reported

    @kronosarm @Steveonstradey @fesshole English regions HD need to be on Freeview, FreeSat and Sky. Plus backups. Plus switching at network junction points. Plus upgrading regional studios to HD (cameras, edit, play out). Massive expense for 28 mins at 6:30 and 3 x 6 min bulletins. That, or quality content?

  • BameWiltshire BAME in Wiltshire (@BameWiltshire) reported

    @NHSuk @bbchealth People should not have to 'Search, better health NHS' on Freeview. The BBC should provide a 24 hour channel especially for people with poor access to the Internet & who work long hours. The UK could have uniform, consistent, upto date, World standard information

  • CouchCommunique Real name goes here (@CouchCommunique) reported

    @wheeplumb @bbcpress @BBC Well apart from the many millions of freeview users, are you saying there is no public service value to BBC television at all? Regional news for instance, which is often the most watched item of the day? Building up new British talent? No value to that?

  • PostDocHV Dr Michael Fanner (@PostDocHV) reported

    @Philips I bought a 50PUS7556/12 50inch 4K UHD LED SMART TV WiFi Dolby Atmos Freeview HD in December (registered it with you) & since the beginning, the TV does not do anything when pressing the remote (but the red light flashes per push) for up to 3/4 minutes. Please can u help?

  • DarrylTypeR Darryl (@DarrylTypeR) reported

    @virginmedia hey, quick question, if i cancel my contract do i still get to keep the virgin box? And would i still be able to watch freeview channels through it? Thanks.
