    @drewhill79 @VodafoneUK @MattJConnor @StHKHIS Same here. BT got the 150 mb and it flies. Good support and I stream everything!! Don’t even have normal freeview.

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    I don't have an ariel or freeview I rely on your piece of shit @virginmedia #VirginMedia

    @EinCymru Yep it is true - can't get it on any Freeview service (might with Sky) - so annoying - have choice of North West or West Mids.

  • simdmuk Simon D M (@simdmuk) reported

    @VirginMedia_TV Now that Com7 Freeview MUX is causing channels to close in droves and gems like Forces TV going forever, how about reducing you TV package prices, as I have about 150 channels of garbage which I never watch. How you can tout "modern TV" is beyond belief .

  • BillSar93780206 Bill Sargent (@BillSar93780206) reported

    @mi06572550 @CliffHangerLON @danwootton At least RT was pure comedy. GB News is like a mental ward - it's a mirror image of the cabinet. Never have so many angry, ill-informed non-book reading freaks been allowed on Freeview channel 8,000.

  • JaymezStevie Stevie Jaymez (@JaymezStevie) reported

    Thanks Freeview tv (owners ) for going to take of free sports channel 65. Nought to watch as tv ****. Only channel I watched.

  • allen_rob Rob Allen (@allen_rob) reported

    @bt_uk all your freeview HD channels keep have awful signal quality in last few days for some reason 🤔 has this been reported?

  • tocatchathief8 🌱🌻🌹John McCarthy🌹🌻🌱 (@tocatchathief8) reported

    @cordbusters You can watch Freesports on free to air satellite as well. Won't miss it on Freeview as I could never get anything on com7 🤷
