  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

  • DamienAshton Damien Ashton-Wellman (@DamienAshton) reported from Birmingham, England

    Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

    @Gaz_THFC £84!!!! I used to have to pay £65 a month. Switched to freeview via Sky for £5 a month and got a new sky Q box. Hated it. Going to cancel in March when my contract ends. Switched to BT TV for £6 a month, freeview, Netflix and Sky entertainment for 24 months.

    @the_peakys @ALS_Fanzine Can you get the digital signal from the south, here in Belfast, they still block some stuff on freeview.

  • DDubya82 Daniel Whittle (@DDubya82) reported

    @davechannel @NEReviews Watching on freeview transmitting from winter hill. It’s not isolated to this one programmes it’s multiple programmes, QI, house of games, travel man, and last night, the Bad Boys II movie. This is being watched on a panasonic TV with integrated freeview.

    @micronautsFan @NoContextBrits To be fair up until about 20 years ago (roughly) we had 5 whole channels haha. When satellite TV came in then Freeview as I am sure you know, it all changed but we never had the US style 200+ cable channels until quite late on.

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi In the Last 2 Weeks my Freeview Signal keeps Breaking down RH20 Post Code Heathfield Transmitter, Evenings are worse than daytime, is there an issue causing this, or could it be the Cold Weather affecting the Signal..Regards..

    .@FreeviewTV @HumaxUK @ITVXhelp When I bought my Humax FVP5000T Freeview Play box it supported ITV Hub, but no longer does. My older Humax HDR Fox T2 long ago stopped supporting BBC Iplayer. Must I continually buy new kit or will you release a patch to support ITVX?

    @pearce1999 Hi Karl, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview Reception. so, we can investigate this for you, can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks George.

    @Gaz_THFC @rnossej If you are in a contract say you want to cancel they will say you will have to pay an exit fee. Say you want to switch to freeview service (£15 a month ) and say you can’t afford to pay for it they should give a £10 discount for £5. Cheaper than the exit fee - that’s what I did
