    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

    @R5EHOLE @Brimstones1234 @BBCNews Cool. So you've cancelled kids TV, Forces TV, Freeview now has a 1/3 funding problem. All of the local dialect programming has gone and the content is now created for profit so any events which are in the public interest are pay for view. Doesn't sound like a good model.

  • DominicReville
    mildmanneredjanitor (@DominicReville) reported

    @La_Duff Look up common IP address & Subnet, DNS etc settings for your TV model on the internet & manually change them on the TV's Network settings, I used to have to re-set those settings all the time on my Freeview TV recorder box to get it to connect to my old router,

    @3011corralejo @Pippisell There’s a problem with that. My aerial doesn’t work, so the only freeview channels I get are what comes through the internet. Plus I get Amazon Prime, Disney plus and Netflix. Ive been meaning to sort the aerial , but I get 30 channels of crap, so feel it’s enough !

    @YardleyShooting DVLA tracking people down on behalf of scammer parking companies run by criminals - this is working 'effectively' - on "Cant't Pay Won't Pay" on Freeview there was case where they got £2 fee to go to £2000. That business is working - the scam business, aided & abetted by judges

    @Johnnywas25 @darrengrimes_ @CommonsDCMS I don’t watch Freeview. I don’t have a aerial. As for broadband. That was NOT funded by the TV Licence. I’m on Virgin Media’s fibre network, don’t believe they’ve had any public funds. You’re referring to BT, who have, but have no connection to my property.
