    @DooHopper Pick will be an interesting case, no hd an awful picture on Freeview, good slot number but not much heft from Sky to push it.

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    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)

  • DaveBStDW Dave Bowden (@DaveBStDW) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    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

  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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.

  • Ronagig Ro "there are four lights" (@Ronagig) reported

    @K_Flynny369 Can't get it tuned in on Freeview, signal not good enough 🙄 Enjoy it for me

  • bha4p Andy⁴p⚪️💙 🚯 (@bha4p) reported

    FFS, given up on @virginmedia to get a decent picture of the match on BBC1 HD. Terrible signal, reset the box and everything. such a pity. I guess they can't handle the demand or maybe someone near me extended their cable themselves this afternoon. Freeview for the match it is

  • dcastrogiovanni 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Dan Castrogiovanni 🇮🇹 (@dcastrogiovanni) reported

    Tech folk... How can it be that Freesat is ahead of Freeview? Do I just have a really crap Freeview TV?

  • benjcsutton ʙᴇɴᴊᴀᴍɪɴ ꜱᴜᴛᴛᴏɴ (@benjcsutton) reported

    I don't want to pile on, but I think that anyone setting up an independent freeview channel about anything in an age where linear TV is on the decline is pretty ******* stupid tbh.

  • Mark_Ma77 Mark 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@Mark_Ma77) reported

    @MSwift94 Honestly think a better solution to get people into cricket (I presume this is what it's for) would be to just put more normal cricket and more t20 cricket on freeview telly.

  • Page_888 Matthew H (@Page_888) reported

    @russty_russ Hugely disappointing as they on concentrated on Teletext Holidays, a digital service on Freeview at the time.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital And I've just checked up, what a surprise vision + is no longer available. I think there was 40 paid for channels. Can,t remember exactly because I never used it. Due to the problems with freeview.

  • SexodusUK Scott Exodus (@SexodusUK) reported

    @sophielouisecc HD on freeview, the current SD quality is crap.

  • Rexymorgano Rexy (@Rexymorgano) reported

    @jimwaterson Dont forget shutting down. Their sky and freeview slots are worth money. I give it until end of August.
