    @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…

    @Stuart_NashMP I understand you are in charge of Freeview. Just letting you know that I have an issue that a number of people are experiencing, but all communications with Freeview go into the void, I have msg'd them 4 times and called them 4 times. No response from any of them

  • wrobexee1 Mike Weir (@wrobexee1) reported

    @Stuart_NashMP Not only is the customer service rubbish, but the Freeview forums where there are messages about the issue from other people, Freeview seem to not care in the slightest. I am almost about to give up and flag free to air altogether. the news and shows I watch are unwatchable

  • JohnTurner2021 John Turner (@JohnTurner2021) reported

    @MiserygutsPetty Because of the temperature. Hot temps and high pressure will **** a Freeview signal without even buying it a drink first.

  • Cosmic_Carbon_ Cosmic🪐 | Splatoon era again (@Cosmic_Carbon_) reported

    @MAGNETIC_DOGZ Basically you needed a paid service with certain companies to even get Nickelodeon, CN, ect on the TV. I grew up on the freeview channels, pop, cbbc, citv, all that.

    @HumaxUK FVP_5000T. Cannot go backwards in the EPG anymore. Players screen often doesn't launch properly, fixing me no way into Freeview Play providers. Live TV app doesn't work properly and have been updated in years. Any plans to fix any of this? #humax

  • John_R_Cochrane John Cochrane (@John_R_Cochrane) reported

    Just asking. How come there is no 9pm news on any Freeview channel? 9pm used to be the main news of the day. The nearest that I can find is BBC "The Context". WTF? I may be getting old but why would I be interested in watching something called "The Context"?
