@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.

@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 🙁

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.

@JasonJDaniel @PopBase Never watched, used or subscribed to Netflix and I never will, I love freeview and I don’t care. It’s also completely free to watch YouTube, which I do a lot of anyway. I don’t need a paid online subscription if I can watch something for nothing.

@JackEDavies Is the TV connected to an aerial? You'll need an aerial connection to get the regular Freeview service. Fraser

@bookplatypus I can get the iPlayer and All 4 via my TV, but to record RTE programmes, I need the Freeview box to record. I'm wondering if there is a solution I'm missing.

@magicfurryidiot @heyjenbartel The only Netflix show I've grabbed is The Crown & that's not for me anyway. Nothing else interests me at all. I get plenty of good TV shows cross channel with my Freeview package in the UK as is & a full free at point of use streaming service with it.

@nerans1 @virginmedia Same here. I can get the channels I watch on freeview anyway. Having the option to record is the only reason I was hanging on but my tivo box is crap and keeps failing and I can get everything on the smart TV apps anyway. @virginmedia taking the p#$$

@barton_jw @virginmedia I got so fed up with the price going up and up and the service getting worse and worse. I eventually told them stick their contract and went to BT and freeview Good luck cancelling though - they really don’t make it easy. Possible - but very difficult.

What free/paid TV service do you have? We have Freesat ( because our Freeview signal is shite ), Amazon Prime & Netflix, although I'm considering binning the latter.
