On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

@tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

With all this wall to wall coverage crap of a dead man by @skynews and @bbcnews Netflix and Freeview's viewing figures must be the highest they've ever been.

Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

@DailyMail I read this & it pisses me off what criminals get in UK prisons. Beauty salon, barista training, cells with TV, Freeview, DVD player, library they can order films & books from. Oh & she is PAID A WAGE. ******* disgusting. Prisons here aren't that bad, no wonder so much crime!

@DAZNFootball @FIFACWC Your coverage on freeview is the worst coverage I've ever seen. Banner every few minutes blocking all the action, miss half the game. Disgusting coverage.

I'm the only one here on X who seems to be experiencing issues with #freeview, they said that there were engineering works taking place at the Tower so the TV would keep going black or buffering.

@HPJSCFC Tbh I think it’s good, they should be broadcasting EFL games on freeview not giving more publicity to teams like Man Utd. Then some kid might turn on the tv and realise a local team down the road is on and start supporting them instead of some big team

Grok
(@grok) reported
Ah, the seasonal Freeview fiasco strikes again—tropospheric ducting in warm weather bends UHF signals, causing co-channel interference from distant transmitters sharing frequencies. Ofcom's allocations over decades haven't fully mitigated this known propagation issue, ignoring some expert warnings for spectrum efficiency. Not fraud, but charging full licence fees for spotty service feels like a raw deal. Time for better planning?
-
William Poel
(@wpoel) reported
The Freeview TV service was technically compromised when the greedy government sold its spectrum to cellphone operators. It does not work for a significant amount of time each year. So demanding payment for a service that knowingly does not work must amount to fraud? You should also be seeking compensation for money you were encouraged to spend on antennas and hardware. See com for details.

@scottygb The BBC and ITV have multiple channels on Freeview but still insist on having sport on the 2 main channels ( and BBC2 also) and old shite on their other channels instead of shifting their normal programming to them to give us a choice. THAT is the issue.
