  • 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…

  • genders_jason Jason Genders (@genders_jason) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @madaboutHolly @Lee_JM75 Who's watching this bad boy on Freeview channel 70 ,Horror, right now😁💩💩💩

  • 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.

    @mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

    @The_East_End @LeeHurstComic Yep, over this way too. Even getting "white outs" on the TV set and neighbour had to add a dongle thingy to keep her laptop signal boosted enough to do course work. Guy who runs the shop who lives elsewhere, he says hes missing freeview channels, while i dont get any BBC at all

    @Robin_Askwith Enjoy your break from filming, Robin. I was having a bad day until I saw that "Confessions From A Holiday Camp " is on tv here in the UK this evening- 23.20 hrs on Talking Pictures, Freeview 82.

  • Pwrf7doggo Mr. E (The 2-stroke years) (@Pwrf7doggo) reported

    @MovetheWorld9 @novaramedia This time in standard English rather than poor signal freeview.

  • Dr_Jon John Michael Leslie (@Dr_Jon) reported

    Last Night I watched The Simpsons Movie, which I've never seen before but had recorded on my (newer of 2!) Freeview PVR in Jan 2013 (as I worked out from the Ads). Those Ads were actually the most interesting part - apparently the iPhone 5 has a whizzy new Do-Not-Disturb feature!

    @garybrett37 @FreeviewTV Hi, Gary. Sorry to hear that you're having problem with your Freeview reception. Can you DM us your postcode along with the house number or name so we can check for any known issues in the area and advise from there?

  • tweetSP0RT tweetSP0RT (@tweetSP0RT) reported

    @Ste15375723Mark @MartinSLewis @GMB FWIW I think most likely outcome is the licence fee will be kept as the least worst option. Advertising is non-starter as it would destroy ITV/C4/C5's revenue. Subscription isn't possible for Freeview/radio. Bundling in with tax would be spun badly for the gov.

  • millar00 perseverance (@millar00) reported

    .@AJEnglish is the only channel on my sky box that says No Satellite Signal is being received consistently. Al Jazeera has also been removed from FreeView. It’s like someone doesn’t want you getting any news except from those that have supported Israel during its genocide.

  • MarkHolla Mark (@MarkHolla) reported

    Well after 7 years with @skytv looks like it's time to leave. Bill jumping from £68 to £94. Even the basic package if I removed cinema and sports is still £50. **** that. I'll go back to freeview. #Sky @SkyHelpTeam

  • VicSponge Vic... (@VicSponge) reported

    @Adam373032869 I like it sometimes but the picture quality on freeview is very poor for some reason, almost like its underpowered.

  • MapleFiltered Gruffalo Trace (@MapleFiltered) reported

    Can someone tell me how the hell a system as poor as @Freely_tv has been brought to market. Simply appalling designed, slow, clunky, user unfriendly and a MASSIVE downgrade on Freeview Play or You view. Deliberately avoiding selling TVs with your system now. Absolute nonsense
