    @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

  • PopeyeFreeview Popeye (@PopeyeFreeview) reported

    Freeview changes on That's Media Freeview channel 80 That's TV will move to Freeview channel 56 bad news only available in Manchester Freeview channel 85 That's TV 2 will move to Freeview channel 65 bad news only available in Manchester That's TV channels unaffected on Freeview in Manchester and channel 7 & 8 unaffected on Freeview. I think get rid of That's TV 3 and That's Christmas and use there national Frequency for That's TV and That's TV 2 like on Freesat. And Manchester can keep That's TV 3 and That's Christmas.

    @goldchannel U&GOLD is an awful channel. You **** about with things all the time instead of just leaving it alone. Also you only show repeats so why isn't this channel available on Freeview? ******* waste of money that's what U&GOLD IS

    .@FreeviewTV considering your "Freeview" / Freesat product is being eaten by the competition, when will you stop YOUR STUPID **** of scrambling the EPG for manufacturers equipment that didn't pay the Freeview tax, and stop blocking the one week of EPG to only display Now / Next?
