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)

@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.

@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

@AmeliaRocket1 The test signal for the station is on freeview already though 😬

That's relevant to viewers who have compatibility issues with these channels. HbbTV is mandated for all Freeview Play devices, whereas MHEG is now hit-and-miss.

@Lauraleanne1982 @Ezzer_man @WilliamMcGinn11 **** that, it's ok for say Football or movies but not great for live TV. I'd dump our Sky and just buy a freeview or Freesat recordable box but the wife likes it. We literally only watch stuff on freeview these days.

@Stop_The_Panic It would usually say on the deal you'd have bought the TV. Maybe a sticker. Check your TV remote and see if it has a button that says Freeview? Depends how old your TV is also. But the problem you have is that, you want to be able to record it - I don't think you'll be able to.

@Stop_The_Panic @Icky_84 Hi, The best way to find out is it may have the Freeview logo on the back of the TV. Otherwise, you can google your make and model number of the TV or contact the manufacturer for further support. Thanks, Dev.

@apprentice_hw @GBNEWS Freeview Channel 236 (auto retune may be required). Please cancel Sky, its a race baiting rip-off. xx

@JolyonMaugham I must set up a favourites list on Freeview so that channel 236 never gets offered here.
