    @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.

    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

    @Polly_Phluid @RowdyRe80996794 @colinbrazierGBN Lying again? I don't know why you bother when a 5 second Google search proves you are lying. The freeview network was built off the ITVdigital platform which was built by, you guessed it, ITV. The BBC didn't do squat.

    And without speaking too soon to jinx anything, our Freeview signal appears to be absolutely fine at the moment... cannot understand what is causing the disruption we've been having - not changed anything in the house at all 🤔

  • _BEEJ_MUFC Bethany Jane Hitchen🐝 (@_BEEJ_MUFC) reported

    @virginmedia Just the freeview channels, spoken to someone and they have stated your colleagues that sold us the package have taken all of our channels, therefore have mis-sold a service, waiting to speak to a manager, however I will be contact trading standards as a product has mis-sold

    We have the BBC nations feed (high symbol rate) on here. It's obvious they've got their best (4k) cameras out today. Trouble is, it's gonna make every other programme tonight look like it was filmed on a 1970s 405 line plumbicon camera... Freeview will be like legovision.

    @Ihatethisdumbf1 @RowdyRe80996794 @colinbrazierGBN BBC 1, 2, 3 Parliament, News, they still have both the ones you mentioned - they dropping because they are underfunded They built the freeview network - no business would have done that as it a public service

  • Gailspeight1 Yorkshire lass (@Gailspeight1) reported

    @MiaQueen1999 @MartinSLewis I buy food and pay bills. Don't smoke or drink,never go out . I only have freeview nothing else. My phone is from the ark . Yes I have internet for kids or I'd get rid of that too. So what do I take money from to save ?

  • HD2onPBdotcom Brian Corbett (@HD2onPBdotcom) reported

    @rogermosey Work on the transmitter near Manchester in the last month means that ALL BBC transmissions - national radio, local radio, SD TV and HD TV have ceased here: I cannot receive about 30% of the Freeview channels I have been getting over the last 6+ years. And retuning doesn't help

  • NeilNeilasher Neil Asher (@NeilNeilasher) reported

    @spenjflairs @rogermosey @GaryLineker Why would a subscription service have to arrive by internet/cable? #Sky is a subscription service. It arrives via dish as does #Freesat. Sky just needs a viewing card for the subscription channels. Why cant a #freeview box have a viewing card slot for BBC? Even an STB for BBC?

  • Geordieonhol Geordieandproud (@Geordieonhol) reported

    @sophielouisecc I worked. I'm not celebrating. I've got financial problems of my own to be able to splurge on a celebration of a rich person which would them put profits into a supermarket who over charge on basic products. I'm quite happy watching Freeview on my TV with a cuppa.
