    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

    @bigpapablu @itvfootball I don’t have a sky or freeview box! I stream everything and have very good internet so it’s never an issue haha

    @sharepointalex Hi Alex, I believe there is no free service of channels if you cancel your subscription with Virgin. In order to receive Freeview you will need an aerial connected to the TV. Thank you, Melissa

  • EUROPAforever UAdefendsEU (@EUROPAforever) reported

    @Philmoorhouse76 on 30/6 FREEVIEW closed down some channels and reduced others (BBC NEWS) to same quality as per tv in 1969 ,so it could sell off the space to BT for phone coverage

    The wife said she wanted Chanel No.5 for her Birthday...... she'll be chuffed to ****, all I had to do was re-tune the Freeview box!!!

  • sharepointalex Alex Clark @ Microsoft (@sharepointalex) reported

    Does anyone know if you remove a Virgin Media TV package but keep the broadband whether the TiVo box continues to receive a signal for freeview use? Thanks!

    So any atmospheric pressure over 1,005 mBar just lays to waste nearly half of my Freeview channels. Goes from 147 to 96. All BBC, ITV and Channel 4 gone. Pulling the aerial out and returning trick, does not help With the rain last night, did get 107 now back to 96.

    @TVNZ @ThreeNewZealand are you guys aware of the issue with Freeview in Southland? Pixilation and sound drop out. All Channels all of the time. I have tried to report to Freeview, but after 4 emails and no response back after a week, thought I would see if you have any clout.

  • RaxM__ RaxM (@RaxM__) reported

    As TV signals changed to digital, you either have a @FreeviewTV integrated TV or need to use a freeview box on an older TV. Why does @BBCNews have to interrupt @Wimbledon on the hour? If you want to watch the national news, go to the BBC news channel which has the same content

    @TJCSHOPPING I've watched TJC on freeview quite a few times and it's very mundane. Much more interesting is reading the consistently dreadful reviews customers leave. Damaged, inferior and missing goods, appalling customer service and so on ... Best avoided. #TJCSHOPPING

  • JamesHailey1 Jimmy Tweets (@JamesHailey1) reported from Weymouth, England

    Apparently the guy with the goatie in Eastenders isn't Beppie....Is Wicksey still in it ? Not watched this trash in 20 years but Mrs H has put it on because we are down to Freeview...I want to slash my wrists 10 minutes in....How do you watch this garbage @Shana_Banana_44 ?!

  • yabouhti Sheikh Yabouhti (@yabouhti) reported

    @GitGrumpygit Simple, CANCEL IT & use Freeview. Any organisation that shafts me that I can do without, gets cancelled and/or switched.
