@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.)

Why 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.

@DooHopper Pick will be an interesting case, no hd an awful picture on Freeview, good slot number but not much heft from Sky to push it.

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

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)

@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.

Fellow neuroimagers! My RA has a Mac and I'm a PC user. On my end, freeview opens with no problems. On her end, she gets the message "Segmentation fault". IT has tried to help to no avail. Is there some Mac secret that y'all can share? Thank you! @FreeSurferMRI

@creag123 @goldchannel Absolutely agree, Gold would be a great addition, Sure it's not the same channel it used to be, But there could be a fix, Extend the gold brand to drama, Include gold comedy. And gold itself in its original form to Freeview, with the spin offs left with subscription TV

@markisawimp @garyb007 Signal should be the same as before (same frequency, same transmitter). Your TV may have added a weaker copy from a relay in the 800s. You'll probably have to do a full retune, that'll ensure you have all the latest Freeview channel updates.

@newt_kiters I guess when I get round to actually get sky, I won’t need a dish or a set-top box or anything. I’m assuming it will come straight through the TV through the Internet. The trouble is I don’t watch a lot of TV I’m usually listening to music or out walking. Only Freeview

@Mark_P0x0n @LucyMPowell But I might want to watch something on freeview that requires adverts & a properly costed budget to fund (not BBC) So why should I pay for the BBC when their model is at best a tax on live TV of any sort? This is where the BBC falls down in the modern era, it's simply outdated

How far do you expect this £150 disability cost of living payment to go? - #KayBurley says this one-off payment comes on top of other support for those with disabilities. 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube
