    @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

  • Christi34653250 Christine Scott (@Christi34653250) reported from Longbenton, England

    @ITVX I wish I could or that Freeview took on this network a lot of us on pensions can't afford satalite or cable

  • JonnyRoLi JR (@JonnyRoLi) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @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.

    @SkyUK It is really not good. Switches itself off even when set not to ! The playlist doesn’t always work- you can only watch stuff as agreements are valid & some stuff is immediately unavailable! Many channels missing which are on satellite. Rewind / ffwd poor. No real Freeview etc

  • Originsingamer zinorigins (@Originsingamer) reported

    @Potatoe_Waffles @Machobeard4life It's on itv 4 not itv 1, still need to buy a freview box or have a TV with freeview built in, then you have to factor in that not everyone's signal would be perfect on freeview, so they will more likely use fite TV or subscribe to itv hub or britbox, it's not free TV at all

    @Ainsworth7Jo @GBNEWS I am an engineer. The conversation usually goes like this:- "So you work in a garage." "No." "Could you do the MoT on my car?" "No. I'm a graduate electronics engineer." "Could you fix my telly? I can't get BBC3 on Freeview."

  • NormandyOrBust Beniamino (@NormandyOrBust) reported

    @robyoung20 I could never understand why they were ever allowed to waste a full HD channel on Freeview, and as for Alex Salmond and others taking their money, disgusting, I don’t hold the SNP, or others, in any way related to this though. It’s certain individuals that sold their souls.

  • _davidhansard David Hansard (@_davidhansard) reported

    Said I'd help an elderly friend who has poor TV reception due to rural location, get more channels. After call suddenly realised I don't know the first thing about it. Are Freeview channels available via cable? I don't even know how Netflix is received. Or the equipment needed.

  • Originsingamer zinorigins (@Originsingamer) reported

    @Mrpaulfox @Potatoe_Waffles @Machobeard4life Digital TV only allows the 5 main channels everything else is freeview, most of us rely on WiFi to view American products, because not all of us have a freeview box because we don't wanna pay TV licence of the thieving BBC, which has literally the worst programming on it

  • SteveHyett Steve Hyett (@SteveHyett) reported

    I see @SkyUK have put their prices up yet again...I'm only on basic package but I'd be paying nearly £40 a month to watch shows with adverts. £40! Nah, going to cancel and hook up a Freeview box.

  • dhothersall Duncan Hothersall🌹 (@dhothersall) reported

    @hrochfor1 "Freeview Channel 264" is VisionTV, not a Freeview channel at all but an IPTV distribution service. IPTV is accessible anywhere in the world and is not subject to broadcast licences. I already said RT could continue on the web if it lost its licence. Please stop pretending.

  • HenryVlII Henry 🎱 (@HenryVlII) reported

    @ReutersUK His freeview must've been down for the past two years, he ain't getting any local news.

  • RonTheRetail Ron Ron the Business Mon (@RonTheRetail) reported

    Create and craft is no longer on Virgin Media, I don’t use Freeview due to poor signal and sorry not going to change to Sky. You’ve lost a customer for my craft projects Creat and Craft…..Goodbye.
