Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England@tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

RXTV Info (@rxtv_info) reported▶ Channel List Management provides an alternative channel list via the internet to compatible devices and allows broadcasters to do a SD/HD switch. ▶ But the functionality was only added to Freeview Play recently, so not all Freeview Play devices are guaranteed to support this.

Ash Preston (@TheAshPreston) reported@lauralexx We were so poor, I used to watch to 10 minute Sky Box Office Freeview of J2J. I've still never actually seen it. Sorry Brendan.

skyblue_england 🏴 🇬🇧 (@skyblue_England) reported@BBC The viewing public should not be forced to fund a service they have not chosen, just so they can watch Freeview on their own television sets. Like Amazon Prime and Netflix, the BBC should now compete in the marketplace and offer a subscription service. #defundthebbc

skyblue_england 🏴 🇬🇧 (@skyblue_England) reported@BBC The viewing public are not ‘celebrating’ being forced to fund your moribund corporation. The BBC is not an essential service, so the taxpayer should not be forced to pay for it, just for the privilege of watching Freeview on their own televisions. #DefundTheBBC
