    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • Like47 Les Dawson and me #JC4PM2019 #LabourActivist (@Like47) reported from Manchester, England

    @gary_worden @cjssydney @cptcapitalg @FrogAlaPeche Poor people either don't have a TV or watch freeview.

    @Mikalisyid My contract with Sky ended last month & I never renewed. 17 years a customer & I finally had enough. We have Amazon Prime, Netflix, Freeview & so far we’ve literally not noticed it gone as a family. I had the full Sky Q package for £65 so did have a good deal but glad it’s gone.

    @a516digital As to freeview, better off talking to harry hill, they know absolute nothing about the problem i had. 4 times ive had this looked at now, because freeview passed my details on.

  • AliOnSafari64 David Alistair Rogan (@AliOnSafari64) reported

    @TVgroup_UK Hi, yesterday I had a KG55K2020UK delivered. After spending a long time tuning/setting it up, I have some channels showing as ‘data only’. Eg. Ch271 - Channelbox. Why am I unable to use this basic Freeview service on a brand new tv? (Aerial & Internet both connected).

  • Carti_Mandua LadyAnniSpiceInCognito#CountessBimboIsBack# (@Carti_Mandua) reported

    @soyoprincess @Klein17172024 We mostly watch documentaries on Freeview .... Portillo and the Trains, Abandoned engineering etc never BBC or ITV

  • FeelitWorking aka James Bond (@FeelitWorking) reported

    @AppSecBloke I was complaining at Virgin for putting the Bill up to £57/month when the TV service is the same as Freeview&Freesat and I don't need a home phone. Only with them for Internet until I find a different offer. People I work with pay hundreds a month for services you mention.

    It's the annual game of Hunt the MotoGP Freeview highlights next week, with nothing listed in today's RadioTimes but Quest presumably down to show the series again

  • Page_888 Matthew H (@Page_888) reported

    @tvliveforum @DylanDylan1909 @Ident_Circle The font was also used for their daily Milkshake! and Shake! strands. Viacom seem to have leased the Shake! brand for Channel 10 in Australia for 10Shake!, a channel mostly showing various Nickelodeon and MTV series on their Freeview service.

  • DJEmz1990 JigglyEmz (@DJEmz1990) reported

    so until i can afford the upfront fees im pretty much stuck with virgin, but Sky have offered me ok speeds i think it did include basic freeview style tv which i wont use and phone but it has a 3 year price fix and is only a third of what im paying now

    @MagicalOverload The TV licence. Freeview is crap.

  • Arcane_Asylum Dragontao (@Arcane_Asylum) reported

    @DefundBBC Freeview is one of the worst misnomers in existence. Not bloody free is it. You have to pay more to watch most of it than you do any of the streaming services.
