@bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

@bt_uk Hi Aaron, I am in complete disbelief as to how long this takes to resolve. I don’t care who resolves it & not my problem he’s not in. I’m paying full price for freeview! I demand compensation and a quick resolve as this is just embarrassing for @bt_uk

.@Freeview question - how come the PSB muxes aren’t treated equally? The BBC one and the HD one seem to have a much better signal from Wenvoe than the “normal” ITV one. (I can get Mendip off a random bit of metal.)

Just 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)

@ColinSkinner17 @Dinosaur1177 @MartinDaubney The BBC is a pay TV station so like other pay TV stations they shouldn't be on Freeview and their signal should be scrambled on other platforms. If people without a license good on them

@TheVikingDane @GayTory You only need a TV License if you watch/record live television on any service (e.g. BBC1/C4/Freeview, Sky,Virgin) or if you use iPlayer. BBCs goons rely on self incrimination so don't ever let them in unless they have a warrant and police/official present.

@FreeviewAdvice Have been having trouble with my freeview since 8th March 2023. Before that the reception on all channels was perfect. Suddenly the picture is cracking up and going slow. It is not very bad but it is not as perfect as it was. The sound is a bit affected too.

@o_sheilagh @albundysdad No one is forcing you to cancel your sky, Freeview etc. Just watch on demand.
