    @Complyorcry @Back_Two_Mee To @TalkTalk they are okay but the broadband is not a good as VM but it's okay; it cut the monthly bill in half. I have since dropped their tv service and bought a freeview recorder. Monthly bill for broadband/phone £38

    @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.

    @TheWarLlama Why does it feel like three seasons is Netflix’s hard limit for new content, while having billions of seasons of unwatchable crap available on Freeview?

  • jimmongomery Not a Country to grow old in (@jimmongomery) reported

    @27476b54549e462 WATCH GB NEWS FREEVIEW 236. YOU WILL NEVER WATCH ANY OTHER NEWS CHANNEL. COVERS EVERYTHING THE OTHER ESTABLISHMENT CONTROLLED NEWS CHANNELS IGNORE ,BUT ARE PRIORITIES FOR THE PUBLIC.

  • salfordsmith61 Smith (@salfordsmith61) reported

    Big Trouble in Little China has just started on the paramount channel on freeview!

  • Shaunaskins121 Shaun askins (@Shaunaskins121) reported

    @itvnews Thank **** for bad reception on freeview won't have to watch this shower of shite

  • judith17554 judith WOKE 💙 (@judith17554) reported

    @WolfgangDikface No. I only have Freeview, so no option, but I don't think it's my cup of tea. I've not got much patience with fantasy or sci-fi type films/programmes. I have enough trouble with real life.

  • seaghanMK Seaghán🥊🎭 (@seaghanMK) reported

    @a516digital @BBC Thanks done all this. As I have exactly the same issues with BBC FOUR HD on a freesat box (itv/bbc type) which runs off a different dish and on a different tv I really don’t think on this occasion it’s me or my equipment. SD fine. Freeview HD also fine. All other channels ok.

  • Matth9999 Matthew (@Matth9999) reported

    @JuliaLopezMP I was going to gripe about the iniquity of Jury service, where those who hate the idea are press ganged into it on pain of a £1000 fine, but on seeing your position.... Freeview has an expiry date, the 2038 Linux bug - specifying as UNSIGNED format would solve

  • RyanDaniel3 Ryan Daniel (@RyanDaniel3) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice I live in cardiff but receiving gloucester and Bristol channels on my freeview I've retuned many times. How can I fix this?

  • enajydoom Jane (@enajydoom) reported

    @jackiepatie @BertrandRustles I only have freeview and Netflix. No sky, no Disney, no Amazon. I’ve never seen the thing people are talking about.

  • Johnjac86130202 John jackson (@Johnjac86130202) reported

    @MerielMyers I don't buy any streaming. I sometimes look at programme listings and see it's 99% utter dross . Freeview and standard TV channels provide enough crap without paying for more.
