  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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.

  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    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

    @GBNEWS Is anybody else having signal issues on Freeview channel 236? The signal is weaker than all the other news channels.

  • moggie1984 Cat (@moggie1984) reported

    @timmyjpb Thanks Tim! I did see that but I just fail to understand with all the channels on Freeview you still have to subscribe (even for a free trial) to just watch one programme! Maybe that’s just me...?

  • robertw1690 🇬🇧🇬🇧 🗣 Robbie Wilson 🗣 🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@robertw1690) reported

    @GBNEWS FFS... GB News will air on channel 236 for Freeview and YouView viewers, station 216 on Freesat, as well as being broadcast across Sky, Virgin Media and through a dedicated on-demand streaming service.

  • AvifaunaLux AvifaunaLux Shadow Banned for telling the truth!🌸 (@AvifaunaLux) reported

    @NOW Disappointing that this is not being shown on a regular terrestrial Freeview "network" channel, being that Friends was a network show available to all, and not premium/subscription.

  • eugenespeed2 Barry Wilson (@eugenespeed2) reported

    Can you get battery powered freeview TVs? I don't mean rechargeable batteries, but ones where you stick a few AAs in? I had an analogue one but never seen a digital version. I'm not getting much luck with Google. All I'm finding is plug or rechargable powered.

  • FeelitWorking aka James Bond (@FeelitWorking) reported

    @virginmedia You have just reminded me to call and cancel, no point paying for something I can watch on freesat and freeview. I don't need a house phone either! I'm wasting a lot of money when there is no loyalty discount, only reduced Bills for new customers. @MoneySavingExp

  • BarnsH Barn (@BarnsH) reported

    @FreeviewTV @meikleholm1 Yes many folks not able to watch @GBNEWS because of Freeview cut down service . The post code lottery over who gets free tv.

  • hicje clive everett (@hicje) reported

    @SarahLouisaColl My freeview service is the same ,always having to retune.

  • Cartoonist_Rob Rob The Cartoonist (@Cartoonist_Rob) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Has your service stopped? I am unable to stream any Freeview related material currently.

  • AllsGood6 Loquitur (@AllsGood6) reported

    @DefundBBC Wouldn’t watch the BBC even they made it Freeview, one of the best decisions I made to cancel my TV license
