    @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.

    @FreeviewAdvice Hello, I need some help tuning my TV for Freeview etc. I've tried a few times (and I have a digital aerial) without success. Also trying to update the various apps and that's not working either (the TV is connected to my WiFi).

  • PoppyDog08 Al (@PoppyDog08) reported

    @a516digital @TalkingPicsTV announced they were moving on Freeview a few weeks back. The moral here is never put your channel numbers on your merchandise. My beanie hat will be out of date 😢

  • Montrealbloke Richard - Entrepreneur & progressive 🇨🇦 🇵🇸 (@Montrealbloke) reported

    @virginmedia hi. I've got a friend who has your service, TV, broadband & phone. If you put her price up, she will drop the TV and keep broadband. Use Freeview, channels on Amazon, Discovery + & Disney. Plus Now TV. Total still cheaper than you.

    @FreeviewAdvice We suddenly lost our Freeview channels, we've tried rescanning but can only get 30ish channels. Can you help?

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    Fog! Temperature Inversion! Weird things may happen to your Freeview signal tonight and tomorrow. Don't retune! (Unless your hobby is DXing and you want to see if you can get some out-of-region/foreign services.)

  • KevyCanavan kevycanavan (@KevyCanavan) reported

    There’s a wee freeview Telly app on my playstation with all these made up channels. One of them plays most haunted all day on a loop, and does anyone know how to cancel sky?

  • Huriye Huriye (@Huriye) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV @grannypatt It's not you, it's living in certain areas watching Freeview is a lottery. With me it's also the BBC channels that come up no signal due to certain atmospheric conditions? Who knows? Last year a TV engineer came & adjusted the communal aerial on the roof. Briefly helped now not😔
