    @BoostTorbay @AndrewBrazier1 Never used the first two options. Very much old school. None of the fancy pants Sky or Virgin Media either. Just plain old Freeview for me

    @a516digital After freeview sent harry hill round to sort out my reception issue, I'm not going into again, I spent best part of £250 on an aerial to try and get proper local reception which doesnt work.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital When I tried the TV, nothing, it was worst than before, when freeview contacted me, I told them its worst than before, and wanted to know who contacted them. They hung up. I know about the issues, I have a contractor who lives opposite,

    Anyone else getting weird audio problems with @BBCLookNorth on BBC1 Freeview from Emley Moor transmitter?

  • MsDJ1780 Ms DJ (@MsDJ1780) reported

    @piersmorgan Sounds like my Uncle!! Took him to get a ‘new tv’ (with freeview, etc built in). With purchase he got 6 free months of one plus 12 months of another. I set it all up straight away (inc. the freebies). Yet, he’s never even tried them - he’d rather moan that there’s nothing on TV!

    @GBNEWS @thecoastguy No doubt a stupid question but do you have to have a Freeview TV & if you don't what is the device I need to get?

  • Rolo_Tamasi Rolo Tamasi (@Rolo_Tamasi) reported

    @GMB Should we stop giving bad news media Freeview space?

  • DobbieAline AlineRoseDobbie (@DobbieAline) reported

    @dish I would like to see The News Pack as a Free channel preview. It never has been in Freeview before.

    @LGUKCare Bought a 2020 LG TV a few weeks ago and I've just realised that Freeview Play and All4 apps are missing and cannot be downloaded. Can you help me to rectify this? Is a software update required?
