  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @Ossyref I know but it’s not on Freeview. Not everyone has YouTube for TV or ability to watch on app. We ok as have Virgin but it’s still crap they ain’t showing it for others.

    Horror channel no longer on Freeview and replaced by Legend channel.. I knew this was going to happen after RT News got the boot. I just can imagine the christofascists taking over the media saying it was demonic and **** … reality has become the horror channel

    @Page_888 @russty_russ Interesting. For the period of time between the collapse of ITV Digital and the launch of Freeview, I suppose it made sense for there to be DTT boxes manufactured. I didn't realise that Top-Up TV had anything to do with Freeview, as I thought it was a separate platform/service.

  • maygrants jade misses liv and bella (@maygrants) reported

    why when li goes on longer does it never show on tv like i have to go to my silly little freeview app to check

  • kevinr_ryder kevin ryder (@kevinr_ryder) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV Wish your encore service was on Freeview play so much easier and more viewers for you

  • Page_888 Matthew H (@Page_888) reported

    @scott_gamer @russty_russ I'm guessing they would have sold generic DTT boxes for free-to-air digital TV. Top-Up TV used to be on Freeview. Unusually the ntl:digital text service still ran and provided listings for ITV Digital channels long after Freeview had replaced it.

    @lungz77_ @foxylocksy1 I have got Sky with basic Netflix coming Friday, maybe I will be able to see it. I had to do something to escape Freeview. It's that bad tonight I've got Heartbeat on. 😐

    @adam_markson Channel 100 provide viewers with information regarding Freeview and our phone number so if there are any issues with their service they can phone us to try and resolve them. This has been proven to be very useful for people. Thanks, Dylan

    @AmazonFreevee if you're going to play the same commercial over and over can you pick something without the annoying music i.e. oldspice wavy, vacuumed commercial and your Freeview ad with all the horns. It's bad when you have to hear it all day thanks.

  • Hiltonblackdick Richard Hilton (@Hiltonblackdick) reported

    @virginmedia cannot watch any great sport because TV signal is down AGAIN, watching freeview now not the same but no doubt you will take full fee next month!

  • EastLight EastLight (@EastLight) reported

    @malfouru48 Every Freeview TV has a CAM interface on the rear; in simple terms, a card slot, to facilitate access to encrypted services. The BBC could encrypt the signal tomorrow and all most people would need to do is insert a card into their TV. The BBC and Gov continue to lie about this.
