  • Davidp1103 David-19 (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @TalkTalk It would be nice if you could reduce or remove a £40 charge for an engineer who called but made no inspection of equipment, explained that Freeview channels had been altered; a fact that your customer services were not aware of, but should have known.

  • cycleoptic cycleoptic💙💚 (@cycleoptic) reported from Islington, England

    @jock_savage @ruskin147 This licence lets you use and install receiving equipment at the licensed place. watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat) watch live on streaming services (e.g. ITVX, All 4, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Now, Sky Go)

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • Hamishmczzz Margot (Maddie & Hamish, dogs, sadly 🌈) 🇬🇧 (@Hamishmczzz) reported

    @MartinSLewis @itvMLshow Could you help long standing customers get better treated? I've stayed with my broadband cable service since 1997 and am now paying £94 per month at 80 to virginmedia. I don't want to change as I can't get Freeview here and they are still better than the opposition for repairs.

  • tomgliv_tom Tom Gould (@tomgliv_tom) reported

    @SmoothDsNuts @NoContextBrits Benny Hill is on every night on That's TV (Channel 65 on Freeview). Watched a few episodes, I had forgotten how totally awful it was, definitely the lowest of low comedy!

  • philirelandlfc Philireland (@philirelandlfc) reported

    @BoltDogg @LGUK @LGUKCare Honestly all tvs r made in the same factory bar from a few, Sony make there own tvs so they make them right, friend got a LG and we put the freeview on and it was terrible quality TV, I got myself a Sony for a few pound more and in so glad I did, best TV I have ever owned.

    Horrible luck, tomorrow's showing of Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999) starring Hayden Christensen as Roger Rabbit has been cancelled due to Professor Dumbledore shitting on all the cats he could find. #freeview

    @wonderlust484 If you have freeview itv4 HD is not avaliable.. so it looks.. terrible. Freesat, Sky and Virgin have the ITV4 HD channel I believe.

  • DougMcfarlane59 Douglas Mcfarlane (@DougMcfarlane59) reported

    @WilliamNB @tvlicensing We had loads of them letters when we lost our regional TV transmitter and every single person with just Freeview service cancelled their direct debits. It was over a million households for Teesside and little further away. They then targeted OAP's with letters 1/2
