    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

    @GBNEWS My parents are nearly 70. They do not want and will never get the Internet apart from on their phones. Their TV in the bedroom broke but they still use freeview boxes. Try to buy a new 40" TV that doesn't need the internet.. its impossible. Telly really is dead already..

    @JamesNonchalant the joy of recording on freeview, watch what I like, skip all the **** in the breaks & avoid all news.

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

    @hitinman ALWAYS issues with Freeview, they just tell you to retune 3 or 4 times then say you equipment is at fault. Never their bad service!

  • wrobexee1 Mike Weir (@wrobexee1) reported

    @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

    @petemorristwit Just about to cancel BTTV. It's awful. Broadband is OK. Just get a freeview box.

  • Marktnewbold Mark Newbold (@Marktnewbold) reported

    @secondtierpod When your Freeview reception is poor

  • ahappystitcher Sally-Jane 💙💛🌻 (@ahappystitcher) reported

    @DianeHaywood71 I know. Our lounge TV doesn't work without WiFi as the internal freeview box dies ages ago and we have to use a firestick for that. It's never ending this no WiFi lark ... 🙄

    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"?
