    @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

    @BBC No, because we can't see anything! There have been so many Freeview outages, again today. We've had days & days of no service. Can't get terrestrial or other channels. The old TVs were far better in terms of reliability. Now, planes affect service, weather affects service, etc.

    @freesat_tv Both Sky and Virgin Media tomorrow's new channel Sky Sci-Fi time is 11:00 am. Unknown people like Freeview and Freesat number channel service.

  • scoutnick Grumpy but Informed (@scoutnick) reported

    @MartinSLewis Freeview only, so not even an issue.

  • Mathe_Musician MatheMusician (@Mathe_Musician) reported

    @SorrelMayWood We take up the offer of 30 days free from time to time. Nice while it lasts, but as we usually joke that the Amazon order will arrive at least 3 days before it says it will, it never seems worth paying. (We wouldn't use the other features - way too much to watch on freeview.)

  • MarkL00775 Mark L (@MarkL00775) reported

    @MartinSLewis Why pay for a service when there are so much free? Try Pluto tv (free) some great stuff on there if can't find anything to watch on freeview

  • tractor_girl99 🚜💙Anna💙🚜 #OFBF (@tractor_girl99) reported

    @itsnickelflysk3 @virginmedia Only problems we seem to have with Virgin is when lightning hits the signal box outside a causes a big outage Thankfully we still have Freeview otherwise will be doomed

  • BerniKennedy Bernardine Kennedy (Maxwell) (@BerniKennedy) reported

    I'm getting twitchy already... neighbours have scaffolding all around their house and its totally taken down our Sky signal. No TV. For at least four weeks. Even Freeview won't work. No Corrie. No Judge Judy. Nothing. #bereft #tvaddicted

    @ThatKerryHudson @Di__ers I’ve got food network on freeview/ freesat. Also would recommend Zen for internet. Good customer service ratings which is unusual in that industry.
