@FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

@stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

@DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

@leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

@PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

@Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

@bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

@oshaymoishe1 @alwaysresister 2 1/2, now you remind me - still have an old analogue portable with Freeview set-top box in case of emergency! Also 3 laptops, though that's not half as swanky as it might sound ;-) 1 work, 1 old & this one an embarrassingly bad waste of money... :-/

@somefinnspecial So I've checked out Sky Arts in the UK. If u are a Sky customer you can download or watch back the CH doc. Keep your eyes peeled for a repeat on freeview. Certainly nothing I can see in next 7 days 🧐

@derrickca @virginmedia I don’t have either. I Just have the streaming sites and Freeview and Broadband provided separately. They don’t care about your custom. If they did they’d resolve the problems that have been ongoing for 15 years!

@LeafNWS @a516digital I know what leaf network is getting at, like what I found out about getting ip. Yes you can get freeview play etc, but it's not free after paying an ISP.! It's like getting channel box, it's free, once you pay your ISP.

@FreeviewTV @JimIrvineUK It's late I shall protest to my mp and find out if there is a regulater. In meantime I shall collect newspaper emails and inform them how unreliable and what a terrible service you offer. I'm amazed how people advertise on freeview they need to know many can't see their adverts

@FrancesCook Forcing the culture clash will be entertaining in itself. I think the issue is that tv is a dead dog, and video content providers can focus on just that, producing content. But free www, not freeview
