    Nooooo just lost our TV signal in the middle of @TheRepairShop Christmas programme. Freeview signal out across much of Cambs but until this minute we'd been ok. Thank heavens for iPlayer so we can see the rest later.

    @MrCoolHandLuke @PairoMayniaq @Telegraph Much of the country can't and will never get Freeview or full fibre broadband. In future it will be the same with 4G and 5G and whatever comes next.

  • wardtours Noel Ward 👁🇮🇪🇪🇺 (@wardtours) reported

    @euroweeklynews Don’t know why anyone pays for Sky, most ch’s worth watching are available for free on freesat (not freeview, is not & has never been available in Ireland)

  • LimeyOtoko Vince Pavey (@LimeyOtoko) reported

    @rileysauruss PlutoTV has a bunch of free channels, I use that for anything not on UK freeview. It's an international service that covers a lot of bases, including channels for news and sports

  • Nyssa1968 SJ Groenewegen BEM MA (Hons) BA (Hons) 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@Nyssa1968) reported

    @willhowells I remember how they f*cked even that up. I missed the TV address because I was watching a freeview channel it wasn’t on & there was nothing to point to a channel it was on. & the text message arrived days late & iirc the link in it was broken. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 imperfect but better.

    @back_the_BBC If the TV licence were to be decriminalised the only way to shore up BBC income would be some form of subscription even if only top up. A key problem, for government is that the #Freeview platform is, er, free, with the technology not currently supporting encryption for payments

  • iv_coffee_stat I V Coffee Stat (@iv_coffee_stat) reported

    @rat_mortuis @korahawhare I don’t have freeview tv & I literally cancelled Sky the day after my ex & I split up- such a great feeling. He used to spend every evening flicking between sports channels but never watching anything for more than a few minutes 😱 I have Netflix & sometimes watch “on demand”

  • mattohare mattohare (@mattohare) reported

    @rtenews Too bad we can't get this in the North. Freeview blocks RTE and TG4. Tommy Gorman knows and supports it. He said so in a telephone call.

  • SallyBLAKEBROU1 Sally BLAKEBROUGH (@SallyBLAKEBROU1) reported

    @ITV saw ITV channel 10 on Freeview. Terrible #gambling adverts. Adverts pay for channel but Gambling is breaks people! Hope #Govt UK stop them!

  • giselle97 Giselle #FBPE 🕷 (@giselle97) reported

    @FreeviewTV Why does Freeview say there are no problems with either Sandy Heath or Belmont transmitter when the whole of my local neighbourhood has no signal reception at all?

  • missTfied66 Ditsy1 (@missTfied66) reported

    @MNotts19 @thefreepress2 @TheProleStar we only had our licence to watch PMQs...we cant get freeview signal here and stopped virgin tv too pricey and paying for so many free to air channels. After GE i stopped my licence and wrote official complaints. £12 a month better off!!

  • margatesunsets Fiona K. (@margatesunsets) reported

    @HabberleySteve @dancludlow @ShirleyMadin1 Andrew Neil is fronting a new news broadcasting service in the New Year. Called GB News, I think! It's going to be on Freeview, which I can't get! I use Freesat.
