  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

    This privatisation of Ch4, would include the stake in freeview that is part owned between BBC, ITV and CH4, another terrible idea, from our government of terrible ideas.

  • AlanToms14 They call me Arlan. (@AlanToms14) reported

    @Andrea25079843 Ditched Virgin a couple of weeks ago. Our freeview signal is poor but we haven't missed 'normal TV ' as we have Netflix Etc. Although I did miss watching Palace stuff the Gunners on Monday night. Also ditched phone line as we never use it except to recieve calls from scammers

  • muder1308 ModernTVGold (@muder1308) reported

    @Forces_TV @RadioTimes The time it debuted when W moved to the Freeview page on the 25-31 March 2022 issue. So it had to replace the defunct Fox channel on p5.

    @SherlocksSpring don't watch that crap, haven't since Wright did it. New name, same old bigoted **** from #ScourgeOfTheTvChannels who is no longer on my Freeview box. @gnomeicide

    @janmicham @RobertCooksley3 @lionelbarber It'll remain free to view but it'll be an emaciated stick figure showing 30 year old repeats of Countdown. Have a look down the Freeview TV guide for what this brave new world looks like.

  • StuartsVoices Stuart (@StuartsVoices) reported

    @jinxyjane1960 @BBCNews Incredibly naïve comment. I realise not everyone will see tough times, but this is going to cause all kinds of problems. Even me on my £8 mobile contract and Freeview. I don't see it as unpopular, I see it as something that has no idea what many will face.

  • murcanpolitics 'Murcan Politics (@murcanpolitics) reported

    @TheWestonMike @JohnJCrace @gordonrlove Ah, yeah you so need a license to watch Freesat or Freeview live. Not if you watch All4 though. That's a streaming service which you don't need a license for. My bad.

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @IsraelHands2 If the problem persists it might be worth speaking with Freeview advice line on 03456 505050 as there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to get us.

  • joonloons june lewins (@joonloons) reported

    @basestacking Check Freeview for the terrestrial channels in your area, and retune a couple of times to see if you get more stations. I use a Humax and smart tv so I can record TV programmes, but you should be able to just plug it into your tv. I find non-HD progs get a better signal.
