    @virginmedia We get freeview on our tele. We got told that an engineer would come around within an alloted time, and they never arrived. We just got cables posted later that week. It's sad that Virgin don't look after their loyal customers, just charge them more every year.

    @FoxyLustyGrover lol, this happens to us as well (we only have freeview), it starts to cut out when there's heavy rain. On Friday it cut out for the longest time it ever has o_O

    @JackEDavies Is the TV connected to an aerial? You'll need an aerial connection to get the regular Freeview service. Fraser

    @IanRedman11 @BBCNews Even when set to london no local news just red screen for 4 mins every 30 mins - its a BBC issue not a settings issue - you watch via Freeview you get local news or via sky you can retune to local news but via app on all hdmi plug in devices no local news

    @Starrygem4 Web said page not available. Thanks anyway Diane. The annoying thing is, I already registered months ago, but recently sign in came up for every prog and its so frustrating. I don't get tv reception where I live, so can't watch on freeview. Why do we have to sign in at all?

    @isamutlib @neilmorrison @virginmedia What broadband do you use? I have smart TV and firesticks on other tvs but still need broadband. I'm paying for just basic channels that I can get on freeview too and a phone line I never use 😕 Tempted to lose the phone line & tv and just keep basic broadband
