    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

    If we're in lock down for another 3 weeks, I really feel the #sonyChristmasChannel should be put back on #freeview...Will keep people in the house ( okay, it'll easily keep me in the house🎅🤶🌲

    @TheDaiLlew It took me so long to get out of being a Virgin customer. I eventually got out of the grind by getting a satellite dish installed via BT (as a new customer for the a year) then buying a Freeview box. Now I just have to get the Internet from somewhere and can shop around. Pob lwc!

    @AJ_Gay_Gardener @JonDev6 @MTennismad Never seen The Crown because I've never been tempted by Netflix. Too much Freeview and Prime as it is!

  • johnsouthwales johnsouthwales (@johnsouthwales) reported

    @AprilPreston_ You underestimate him. He's never recovered from the introduction of Freeview to British Society.

  • joyembra Joy Embradura (@joyembra) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi! I bought a new jvc TV and tuned my freeview but there are no channels before 12. It says scanning complete. I have another tv in another room and my freeview channels start from 1. Hope you can help. Thanks!

  • Ucan_Call_Me_Al Alex White (@Ucan_Call_Me_Al) reported

    @LGUK is it true that my LG tv screen keeps going black because of an issue with HD freeview signal? Got told by your rep that I had to wait three weeks for a software update.

  • MikeRuddick Mike Ruddick (@MikeRuddick) reported

    @itv please fix the glitch that’s making our picture jump. Happening across all Sky channels, normal freeview, but not on freeview HD. Also goes away during ad breaks

  • helpasmallbus1 help a small business and a family (@helpasmallbus1) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam can you tell me what exactly your admin fee of £20 is and why I have to pay this every time I renew my sky q package, as a long time customer I’m seriously considering keeping my £20 and just using freeview and Netflix

  • efesinterests Efe (@efesinterests) reported
