    @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

    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

    Rug Doctor Pet Portable Spot Cleaner and 2 500ml pet solution Freeview channel 22 I might buy it

  • andyjworth Andy Worth (@andyjworth) reported

    @Johnnywas25 @darrengrimes_ @CommonsDCMS I don’t watch Freeview. I don’t have a aerial. As for broadband. That was NOT funded by the TV Licence. I’m on Virgin Media’s fibre network, don’t believe they’ve had any public funds. You’re referring to BT, who have, but have no connection to my property.

  • pterodactyl1984 pterodactyl (@pterodactyl1984) reported

    @YardleyShooting DVLA tracking people down on behalf of scammer parking companies run by criminals - this is working 'effectively' - on "Cant't Pay Won't Pay" on Freeview there was case where they got £2 fee to go to £2000. That business is working - the scam business, aided & abetted by judges

  • cjfm7 carl john (@cjfm7) reported

    Ive never known anyone who has bought anything after seeing a TV advert or any kind of advert all they do is annoy people, Freeview is a cheap advertising platform & a tax fiddle that is it, it certainly isnt for people who want watch something entertaining on TV

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @jennysturgess1 We are still there live and clear Jenny. If you continue to have problems after retuning, you will need to contact Freeview.

  • jammyred72 paul valles (@jammyred72) reported

    @GMB @susannareid100 Here is a something revolutionary here, parents need to be parents and take care of your children. Better than food parcels these parents need to learn how to budget, prioritise bills and food, nothing else. If you have sky or Netflix, cancel it go freeview.

  • MattCrighton Matt Crighton (@MattCrighton) reported

    I've had to bite the bullet and cancel my Sky TV package today as I just can't afford it anymore. I have 'practiced' watching Freeview tonight thinking that it can't be that bad. I've resorted to watching Gregg Wallace walking round a yoghurt factory.
