  • 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.

  • 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…

    @g5pr @afneil @GBNEWS Yeah. 100%. He was the draw for me. Watched a few of Neil Oliver but he's too long winded for me. Keep meaning to track down Alex Philips via Freeview but haven't got round to it. Don't understand why Andrew Neil has gone off it. Too woke for him or what?

    @Afanasiew Being in my fifties basically any freeview daytime advert. Life insurance, retirement homes, stairlifts etc. The worst of the lot is the life insurance wrongly delivered post (again) ad with 'June from next door'.

    @FreeviewAdvice I have a question about the freeview tv signal. I've had four different tvs in my flat. The only thing on in the background really is @SkyNews but the tv will always ⚡ tick loudly on seemingly things of interest. Its like a form of intelligence that drives me crazy. Is it signal

  • word_soup Ian (@word_soup) reported

    @SuperRetroid Not massively surprising, I mean for quite a while their brand was being a low cost no strings tv service to add a few extra channels to Freeview for people who didn't want or couldn't afford Sky/Virgin, so it makes sense their routers would be budget as well.

  • BendyCuteness Abby Addison (@BendyCuteness) reported

    I’m sure any one who dose free view can relate with how annoying people are in freeview “BRB let me top up” Never returns “ twirl for me “ just wants to jerk for free “ where you from?” I just want meet me not interested in camming

  • KramG4 Kram G (@KramG4) reported

    @glastonbury @BBCTwo Or better yet, flick to channel 898 on Freeview, has a classic episode of Paint Drying... doesn't feature any **** music or drugged up hippies.

  • CamillaWestUK MILLIE → UK ******* | ADMIREME ♡ (@CamillaWestUK) reported

    @BendyCuteness I tried freeview on AW once for about 2 minutes. Never again!! I take my hat off to those who have it on all the time.

  • AoOldaker Adam Oldaker (@AoOldaker) reported

    @Andy_Gez_ Trying to but I have to go online to get it. I shouldn't read too much into it I'm sure it's just a coincidence Freeview in my area can't get it. But at a time it needs to improve hearing the rumours of Andrew Neil leaving is the worst news. Also I think I prefer talk radio tv.

  • cultofdeath Paul Winter (@cultofdeath) reported

    @FrancaisFarage @GBNEWS Because things like sky are optional nobody is forcing anyone to pay for it and freeview would be fine for most whuch minus bbc is all ad supported. The disgusting part is forcing people to pay for the service with no opt out.

    @TheDoctor2058 @arqiva My experience is that they never ever respond to people here...but perhaps they will DM you. I'd suggest calling the Freeview number for advice if you dint hear back over the weekend. Hope that helps.
