Jonathan (@jonnyhern) reported from Pontypool, Wales@Thomoli @PhilipsCare_UK Iโve been waiting 8 weeks for same issue not worked for me since I bought my TV. I dont have an aeriel tho just satellite cable connected & internet but no catch up aps work or freeview

Simon ๐ค (@uncriticalsimon) reported from Newport, WalesWhy is the BBC World Service so hard to obtain EXCEPT in the one area which is explicitly not the target audience? In the UK the World Service is available 24/7 on DAB and I think Freeview and Freesat/Sky.

Simon ๐ฅ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ (@uncriticalsimon) reported from Newport, Wales.@Freeview question - how come the PSB muxes arenโt treated equally? The BBC one and the HD one seem to have a much better signal from Wenvoe than the โnormalโ ITV one. (I can get Mendip off a random bit of metal.)
-
Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, WalesJust an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

LDH Marketing (@LDHMarketing) reported@BENEFITS_NEWS It also eats up a lot of your broadband. No problem if you're on an unlimited package, but for people on cheaper, restricted usage packages, that will cost. Freely is good where reception is poor, but Freeview is still needed.

Daryl Millar ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟโฝ๏ธ (@daryl_millar) reported@syncronicity100 Thanks. Briefly thought it was high pressure taking down the Freeview signal in my area again, but it was just a few seconds. Dunno if it was the same on iPlayer.

Chrissyboy (@christo08801887) reported@DVDfever Wtf are you talking about? I'm watching on itv! My TV uses Freely not Freeview. Can't change that!

Tony Quintus ๐ฌ๐ง ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ (@MisterQuintus) reported@DanielJHannan Now explain how you make BROADCAST TELEVISION a subscription service without a technology change on the scale of the move to freeview.

marc (@mbutler2007) reported@DanielHussey2 Dont think it would be good having Down Fermanagh on RTE news channel. It has limited coverage in the north . It's not on Freeview or cable or satliight in the north and saorview is limited in Co Down due to morne mountain shadow. Not the promotion the Tailteann cup was promised

South Wales Pragmatist (@WalesPragmatist) reported@alunsays @EnglandRugby Not in HD on Freeview. For a premium match it's a poor effort from ITV, like watching TV in the 90s...

Kev Smith ๐ฎ๐ช (@KevSmithTyrone) reported@reece_dinsdale We never missed an episode growing up and still watch it now when it's on Freeview.

Judith Nicholson (@JudeNicho) reported@cyclingontnt When are the highlight programmes available on HBO Max? I see them on freeview on DMAX at 7pm, but never available on HBO Max other than a 10 min compilation?It's not possible to get the DMAX show on catch up so it's quite poor compared to before moving to HBO.

Tommy D (@TomDennison12) reported@FractalDoctor @DailyMail TV and radio is all that many elderly people have for comfort, especially living on their own with limited mobility, so yes, taking away Freeview is a bad idea. I doubt if too many 80 to 90 year olds have a fast broadband connection !

Carol Jane (@hebe_jane) reported@BigNGandBertie @sleafordmods I bought a Firestick for around ยฃ25. All the Freeview channels are available without Prime. The ITV app is incredibly slow and glitchy through my set top box/DVR, but works well on the Firestick.
