    @rreczulski @rasiron @MalarkeyIron I think it is daft not having a freeview aerial for back up incase Sky is down rhrough weather or your Sky main box isn't working and you are waiting for a day or 2 for a repairman or replacement, at least it is better than watching a blank screen.

    @WeaverRacing @Scotracing @pigeon_island I didn’t know Paul O’Grady was a radio DJ ! . Where I live on Freeview TV we loose our Radio 1 and 2 signal daily from 4pm . Comes on again midnight so what shows and presenters are on between these times are alien to me !!

    @katzenzungen Moved to "BT" full fibre a few months ago and its half the price and double the speed of Virgin Media. We don't take the TV service (can't even keep up with Freeview/Netflix) but more than happy with it.

    @Bob71136804 @BBCSport That's the iplayer. The "red button" is page 601 on freeview. You click on the screen for the iplayer and @BBCSport will force you to swear your life away that you have a tv licence and make you sign in! Many elderly, disabled, poor just do not have the wherewithall or tech!!

    @DIOWARUUDO @oscar692_ No you just can't watch freeview which is dog **** anyways you can still have streaming services that basically make up for it.

  • Irr_Orbit Andrew S.🇪🇺💙#FBPE (@Irr_Orbit) reported

    Can anyone explain to me the point of #ITV4+1 on #Freeview? It never seems to broadcast. Just a waste of bandwidth. #ITV

  • FranklinsSE22 Franklins (@FranklinsSE22) reported

    @MJowen174 Miserable *** You can get some pretty good indoor ones,I’ve got a signal booster and can can all the Freeview,no problem

  • ChrisTheDJ Chris Merriman 🇺🇦 (@ChrisTheDJ) reported

    Actually that's not strictly true. Freeview will be offering internet streams of channels as back up in the future, but no sign of when, so that doesn't help you today.
