  • Davidp1103 David-19 (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @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.

  • robinjuste Robin Juste Emery (@robinjuste) reported from Gillingham, England

    Fog risk and disruption to TV and radio transmissions. Expect some lost Freeview or low signal channels on some mornings next week! #KentWeather @AffinityDJ @AffinityKent

  • Davidp1103 Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Snodland, England

    Continually frustrated by @TalkTalk and its inconsistent service and performance. Have today purchased a freeview recorder to replace their box and will be actively looking for new broadband provider.

  • LexFuturus LexFuturus (@LexFuturus) reported from Longfield, England

    @RaewynScott1 I havenʼt looked into that Freeview on Demand yet but it sounds like I donʼt need to! 😯 Sounds like they want to become a streaming service and donʼt really want to do broadcast TV any more.

  • Enlightenmentor Steve Cowie 🌠 (@Enlightenmentor) reported

    @TalkTV Is there any reason why your Freeview transmission is so poor quality? It looks like YouTube 240P25 upscaled.

  • DaisyDa49084920 Daisy (@DaisyDa49084920) reported

    @RespectIsVital @BBC I was lucky enough to have freeview throughout growing up and it's saddening that other generations won't.... Idk if this could be any help at all but perhaps a dvd player. You can get dvds pretty cheap at charity shops and library's. It won't be the same obviously but may help

  • mldw235 Matt Wright (@mldw235) reported

    @AngelaMarston An awful decision. Can't help wondering if the BBC could have made a much better one somehow. Yes I know it will all be onlineetc but freeview has universal coverage.

  • Nigelh7n Nigel Hurneyman (@Nigelh7n) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice I've retuned my freeview decoder and got the 41/69 Horror/CBS justice swap. But I've also lost 64 Freesports and 77 Now 80s. I can't see that on your site anywhere. My postcode is HP13 and I'm on the Greater London signal.

  • helen0107 Helen Charlesworth 💙 (@helen0107) reported

    Bad news - the family I'm babysitting for only have @FreeviewTV No offense to Freeview, but how am I going to watch the @ChampionsLeague now? Plan B is my @btsportfootball on my ipad, but need to find WIFI & password to facilitate that. Especially if it goes to ET & penalties

  • DaveWales15 Dave Wales (@DaveWales15) reported

    @AndrewM2p4c @andymcgowan001 They have to pay to broadcast via transmitters. They pay for the BBC national dab multiplex. I can't imagine subtracting one station from it saves much. They have to pay freeview, sky and freesat too. Personally I never listen to it through my tv.

  • geordieiceman Sharkey #FBPE 🇪🇺🇺🇦 (@geordieiceman) reported

    @simonharris_mbd And they should have Betamax players too. None of these la di dah Freeview thingies. Poor people are just SPOILED...

    @OGDuckington Part of job should be live on lowest income, in poor housing, no car, freeview, no restaurants etc and live that way for 1 month, preferably in the winter months.
