  @Sonic_Sinclair @bbcmicrobot Technically it is, there's support for it in DVB. There's several channels on DVB satellite that uses it, not sure there's any on freeview. Certainly all the original services shutdown or moved to MHEG. The BBC mheg service was incredible but that's shutdown now too 🙁

  @FreeviewAdvice Can you help me please. I am now relying on Freeview. My tv has HD but Freeview isn’t. How do I get my Freeview into HD. It’s not a pleasure to watch. Thank you.

  One bad thing about #Freeview TV is all the begging adverts. Ignore em all, ain't contributing towards inflated staff salaries. Plenty of local little charities.

  @jamosameo @cordbusters I agree the interface is awful for recording It's as if they only added the Freeview recording facility at the last moment in development... Was looking forward to this device for months but returned mine to Richer Sounds within the returns period

  @BBCFOUR4 Showing what I assume is a repeat but I've not seen it. 7pm Freeview 9 #Squirrelonmyshoulder an orphaned grey. I'm guessing before the draconian rules came into place. When people were allowed to help the injured, old or orphaned regardless of criteria.

  Support @silvervoicesuk! "17 million people watch Freeview each week & 9 million rely solely on broadcast TV, more than half of whom are aged over 65. It would be cruel & irresponsible to force the most vulnerable households in the country to require an expensive broadband contract in order to continue watching TV." I agree. This group does great work! They also campaign to keep our fully reliable copper landlines, which will work in any electrical or internet outage unlike any other option.

  @GBPolitcs Why should I pay a tax for a service I choose not to use? If I choose Sky, TNT, Paramount, Disney, Netflix ect. I pay for it. The ones I don’t pay for (Freeview services) are funded by advertising. Frankly the public funding for C4 should be revoked too.

  not putting Crewe on the radio seems a bit stupid tbh. I mean, do they even know what freeview is in Crewe?

  @virginmedia why is the sound so terrible tonight? I've been trying to watch Father Brown on U&Drama but it sounds like I'm watching underwater. If I switch over to Freely or Freeview then the sound is fine.

  @DameBucket @griffonline @A1an_M Not for iPlayer it hasn't. You already have to be logged in to use it and they could disable viewing of videos until the login was attached to a TV Licence. As for TV over the aerial, when they turn off Freeview it will all be IPlayer for BBC access.
