    @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.

    @Yorkshire_Pics @arqiva Worst service provider I've ever come across. They can't prove basic software solutions to smets2 smart meters and on top of that they they can't provide a reliable steaming service on Freeview. How on earth were they awarded the contract to provide these services is beyond me!

    @GBNEWS Can not receive GBNEWS on Freeview 236, neither can several friends and neighbours ? What are we doing wrong ? Please tweet back any info that will help. Thank you.

  • HoveSweetHove99 HoveSweetHove (@HoveSweetHove99) reported

    @itvhub Your streaming on Amazon Fire is SO bad that it's entirely unwatchable. I have no other way of watching it as you've taken yourself off the @tvguide freeview app. So essentially, I can't watch the footy. Disgraceful.

  • HNM_WClark Will Clark (@HNM_WClark) reported

    Just wondering if anyone in Inverness has had problems with their freeview signal in Inverness in recent days? BBC channels are fine but everything else is crap. Don’t want to climb on to roof to fiddle with aerial. My block of flats are three floors high.

  • Gavarnos Gav Mac  (@Gavarnos) reported

    @IanDunt Having a decent Freeview roof aerial & amplifier really does help. The ITV HD channel is an improvement. I have epic internet & their streaming quality is horrifically bad; just watched the Denmark game I missed yesterday it’s garbage!

  • DavidCarrollIr1 David Carroll (@DavidCarrollIr1) reported

    I hope to have an outside aerial on Monday. Then I can see if my tv picks up a signal, and auto-tune it to get all of the channels on freeview. I've had a 4 year break, now I'm going back to it again. I need to rest at least one day of the week.

    @WayneRo14986293 @GuerinSports Putting the local racing on say freeview would help not only harness but all three codes

  • waltonyeah PW (@waltonyeah) reported

    @SiWalton85 It'd had been dodgy anyway and I just thought it was a case of bad positioning. Brand new aerial etc is only £80 so I'll get them out. We don't have owt but Freeview and smart so worth the outlay
