@Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

@edgarwright @broccantyzack @itv2 Would make for a brilliant friday/saturday/sunday triple header. Would love to break it down into how many times a year they appear on freeview TV

@Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

@FreeviewTV I will never pay for tv so will always have freeview. But PLEASE sort your tv guide out - it's so hard to read. ☹

@PolygoniaSpec @Samanth22356123 Ah. The Freeview is so awful here, you can barely watch it. It's really noticeable with 'Who wants to be a Millionaire', where the TV is so fuzzy you cannot actually read the 4 answers.

@Mike_Fabricant Too busy slagging off @BorisJohnson to report real news . Thankfully we have Aljazeera News on freeview as we would never easily find out what is going on in the world and how it affects us here at home from BBC/SKY non news channels.

@Jonesta1 @virginmedia Cheers Jo - we're already sorted! I'm just aghast at their attitude towards an elderly customer with 30 yrs unbroken loyal custom. We've got him a new Freeview TV, new aerial and he's absolutely chuffed. VM are arrogant enough to think that no one will cancel🙄

@Gambol_Putty @jimharringtonkk An Internet phone costs under £20. I never get into any contract where I haven't planned forward for that amount of time. No one needs Sky there's Freeview.or a £25 firestick

Not had use of @RacingTV for 10 days now. Their technical dept couldn’t help despite trying. All apps work fine bar RTV. I’m paying £25 a month to watch a black screen or frozen pixels. It’s Freeview all over again. Going to have to reluctantly cancel it. Frustrating!

@WilliamNB well @Channel4 are a long way off from the **** #ScourgeOfTheTVChannels has done. But they'll loose support & also be removed from my TVs & Freeview if they like to continue this bigoted ****.

@netgemtv No AV button to select input, sound is poor PVR service only 1 tuner, it causes problems, this box has neat TV guide but the rest is so behind the times. gets red hot, the ITV hub app is the old version, recordings often fail. just a revamp of freeview play channel 100

@nikkibayley I recorded it ages ago - it was on Talking Pictures TV, a little Freeview start up. They get some brilliant older films that I never see anywhere else.
