    @AmazonHelp I bought a Freeview PVR on my new Argos but have since decided I don't want it. It's still ready for collection at the Huddersfield store. What can I do to cancel this and have my card refunded

    Pensioners, our TV broke down today, just ordered our first ever HD Freeview TV, paid a TV Licence for 50 years so why not embrace this technology we have paid the BBC for all these year @DefundBBC

    @Emmalouisajones @SkyNews Poor retro-protest. You can't cancel Sky News. It's on Freeview.

    @HumaxUK only had this fvp-500t since 7th may 20 and its on the blink, freezes, losing recorded programs and Freeview is so slow. Has updates April 2019 but still poor. I would not recommend this at all.

    @compo99 @irishkazza @BorisJohnson I have an old phone, don’t smoke or drink, only have freeview, haven’t been on holiday in over a decade, never owned designer anything, have had the same old trainers for years and have only gotten one small tattoo in the last 5 years that I saved up for for months. Try again 🙄

    @FoxyLustyGrover Who funds those crap TV channels Shine TV etc? Why are they even on Freeview? How did they get there? Who decided?

    @MrJohnNicolson @CommonsDCMS How would a subscription model for Channel 4 even work? It's delivered free, over the air. Its only value is its freeview slot, which has to be funded by advertising or sponsorship. It could develop a subscription service, but anyone could do that now without buying Channel 4.

    @DefundBBC The problem with a subscription service, it that it needs subscription hardware. When Freeview first appeared, receivers often included a card slot, allowing encrypted channels to be decoded. If similar functionality still exists, I've seen no sign of it.

    @gemmaahutton I can really empathize🙋 I'm in Ireland and watch on a Freeview box. Only have crap internet, so can't watch 1 channel & record a different one. No Sky, Netflix or the like 🙄 And cos I'm not in the UK, no BBC player, etc. Still, I make do

    @Channel4, you guys aware that on Virgin cable, @PackedLunchC4 has a black line at top of image (like image has been moved down). Doesn't effect adverts or other C4 channels. Also seems fine on Freeview!

    @dr_monkeyface @Superproprep @GuildOfMakers next door tried to pay me just for retuning their freeview tv! To them it's hiring in a skill they didn't have, to me it's *press two buttons and turn down their money*
