Why is the BBC World Service so hard to obtain EXCEPT in the one area which is explicitly not the target audience? In the UK the World Service is available 24/7 on DAB and I think Freeview and Freesat/Sky.

.@Freeview question - how come the PSB muxes aren’t treated equally? The BBC one and the HD one seem to have a much better signal from Wenvoe than the “normal” ITV one. (I can get Mendip off a random bit of metal.)

@bt_uk Hi Aaron, I am in complete disbelief as to how long this takes to resolve. I don’t care who resolves it & not my problem he’s not in. I’m paying full price for freeview! I demand compensation and a quick resolve as this is just embarrassing for @bt_uk

Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

@bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

@richhawk73 @rebekkarnold I'll never pay Dazn a penny again after their supposed freeview coverage of this WCC. The ads couldn't be more intrusive.

@DAZNFootball @FIFACWC Your coverage on freeview is the worst coverage I've ever seen. Banner every few minutes blocking all the action, miss half the game. Disgusting coverage.

@DailyMail I read this & it pisses me off what criminals get in UK prisons. Beauty salon, barista training, cells with TV, Freeview, DVD player, library they can order films & books from. Oh & she is PAID A WAGE. ******* disgusting. Prisons here aren't that bad, no wonder so much crime!

@GBNEWS Why is there always sound problems on GB news on Freeview? I like the channel, but I’m put off with the slight dubbing problem.

@snoddy114 @LauraJade877 @Freeview I don't know if anyone else is complaining. It's not been mentioned much anywhere in the news as much. Surely other Freeview viewers must be experiencing the same issue.

Also, every time there is a rescan demanded by Freeview, there’s always a problem with the signal & reception causing the aerial to be moved. Terrible service!!!!! @Ofcom sort this s**t out!!!

@DiscussingFilm It’s looks awful. Naturally he had to be married to a black woman and the show host has to be black. Tick those boxes paramount. I’ll watch in 5 years when it’s on Freeview channel 36 or some ****
