    Haven't had BBC channels since the retune, I've noticed I'm missing #BBC4 the most, damn I'm getting old. #freeview

  • marktoleman Mark Toleman (@marktoleman) reported from Fremington, England

    So #freeview told me to retune my tv's which led me to lose all signal apart from one in front room as that's via freesat, so no signal upstairs. I'm now liable for the cost of an aerial engineer to fix it. Been told to complain to my local MP if I'm not happy.

    @kennysmith21 @beffybadbelly No, on widely available freeview (i.e not on the local mux where tinypop lives) there are two: Pop (Arq A) and CITV (SDN), under the impression only CITV is in a similar market (age group) and is not a particularly good service… There is a reason CBBC dominates.

    Bad news - the family I'm babysitting for only have @FreeviewTV No offense to Freeview, but how am I going to watch the @ChampionsLeague now? Plan B is my @btsportfootball on my ipad, but need to find WIFI & password to facilitate that. Especially if it goes to ET & penalties

    @AndrewM2p4c @andymcgowan001 They have to pay to broadcast via transmitters. They pay for the BBC national dab multiplex. I can't imagine subtracting one station from it saves much. They have to pay freeview, sky and freesat too. Personally I never listen to it through my tv.

  • mldw235 Matt Wright (@mldw235) reported

    @AngelaMarston An awful decision. Can't help wondering if the BBC could have made a much better one somehow. Yes I know it will all be onlineetc but freeview has universal coverage.

  • IrishTV_films CCÉ FISÉ (@IrishTV_films) reported

    @BbcBring In NI there is potential to work with RTÉ to have RTÉ2 share with CBBC in replace of its TRTÉ/RTÉjr service. Even to put RTÉ2 +1 on Freeview there with CBBC sharing when its not on the air.

    @simonharris_mbd And they should have Betamax players too. None of these la di dah Freeview thingies. Poor people are just SPOILED...

  • jackyan Jack Yan 甄爵恩 (@jackyan) reported

    @RaewynScott1 I havenʼt looked into that Freeview on Demand yet but it sounds like I donʼt need to! 😯 Sounds like they want to become a streaming service and donʼt really want to do broadcast TV any more.

  • Livalab Mary Stuart (@Livalab) reported

    @arthistorynews We use what my OH calls the Council TV ie Freeview. (Refuse to pay R Murdoch or his crew any money) if they would leave it in a position where you could find it then that would help. Every retune seems to put it to a another Spot. Tv licence due for renewal as well.

  • colinwibbley Colin Wibbley (@colinwibbley) reported

    Is it true the BBC are shutting down Radio 4 Extra? That channel (automated jukebox of old Radio 4/2 spoken word content) costs next to nothing to keep on DAB/Freeview.
