    I mean like the basic freeview **** like channels 1 to 5

  • DoktorFuttocks Daniel Emerson (@DoktorFuttocks) reported

    @twarrestrial @rugbyleagueontv Very true. The quality difference between Freeview SD and iPlayer on a Fire TV Stick, even with my slow connection, is stark. Plus, if you watch something as a stream, it is automatically logged in the official viewing figures, which won't happen on FreeView.

    I have a suspicion the Freeview engineer who came to “fix” my connection a while ago is responsible for this madness. He spent hours swopping around cables. I couldn’t check what he’d done because the cables are inaccessible to me (and the Virgin Hub was out of reach!)

    @virginmedia @Spencer83809805 Virgin Media do not provide a reliable service. My brother has recorded some stuff from Forces tv on his freeview box and he can still watch them.

    @MattyBray007 As in I thought freeview was a description for something like a streaming service. I’ll quit while I’m behind.

    @cloudsteph Freeview all the way! 🤪 Why pay for telly? I got Freeview+Saorview during lockdown and have never looked back.

    @prodnose I'm going back to Freeview so I don't have to pay virgin for their lousy expensive service. Get my broadband from someone else now as well

  • Kolakube_5 Emma (@Kolakube_5) reported

    @UncannyVal No I think it’s just freeview being ****. Not entirely sure. Can only get bbc, itv and c4 and their digital channels for some reason and nothing else. The channels weren’t working and retuning just lost them altogether?!

  • Sophomania_101 Careful, I have Sophomania. (@Sophomania_101) reported

    @mettderk1 @ladbible Yep, if you don't wanna pay for their service use freeview etc, they're private company's you don't have to give them your cash, Why should I pay more because you don't wanna pay at all?
