    One bad thing about #Freeview TV is all the begging adverts. Ignore em all, ain't contributing towards inflated staff salaries. Plenty of local little charities.

  • RoboJ1M RoboJ1M (@RoboJ1M) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @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 🙁

    @Starrygem4 Web said page not available. Thanks anyway Diane. The annoying thing is, I already registered months ago, but recently sign in came up for every prog and its so frustrating. I don't get tv reception where I live, so can't watch on freeview. Why do we have to sign in at all?

  • bellerby1963 Nigel Cox (@bellerby1963) reported

    @virginmedia @AdamT_78 Excellent value for money ! I am a loyal customer (mug) of many years standing, about to pay £75/month for internet/phone/and a TV package with less channels than Freeview ! Expect a phone call off me to finally end the relationship.

  • BurningBridgett BurningBridgette94 (@BurningBridgett) reported

    @hoolatv Uh... hello? BBC News and CBBC have changed transponders on satellite, and Quest moved multiplexes on Freeview, why have you still not fixed the issues? I have a bad feeling when BBC One and BBC Two move transponders you won't have it fixed in time, which is problematic.

    @ITVXhelp @ITVX Whilst I can't comment on the above devices, I can comment on Freeview Play. The Device I baught a mere 28 days ago WILL NEVER work #ITVX even though ITV Hub is installed. Therefore, for you to state, "If your TV had ITV Hub it will automatically upgrade to ITVX." is incorrect.

    'The NHS is under huge pressure.' 📢 Sky News is hosting a TV debate asking: can our healthcare service survive? Join @annabotting live from 📍 University Hospital Coventry @nhsuhcw 📆 tonight at ⏰ 7pm. 👉 #NHSinCrisis 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

  • sjjarrettHR Stephen Jarrett (@sjjarrettHR) reported

    @IanRedman11 @BBCNews Even when set to london no local news just red screen for 4 mins every 30 mins - its a BBC issue not a settings issue - you watch via Freeview you get local news or via sky you can retune to local news but via app on all hdmi plug in devices no local news

  • spacewardash Ashley Shillabeer (@spacewardash) reported

    So I've migrated to @ITVX from BritBoxUK to get more value for money. However, the UI seems very buggy on my Freeview Play TV and is very slow/ unresponsive on other devices. I also miss the Skip Intro feature. At least the contents should be the same, right @ITVXhelp ?

  • robinstmtaolcom tim robinson (@robinstmtaolcom) reported

    So poor I khan only dream freeview 😳

  • DeniseFinkel Mrs. Deedy (@DeniseFinkel) reported

    @MGMRewards MGM+ been watching a freeview on sling. Looks good. Is it a new steaming service?

  • LondonKerry Kerry (@LondonKerry) reported

    @NoContextBrits rip us poor kids who only had freeview/terrestrial and had never heard of these games until today
