    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

    @bigpapablu @itvfootball I don’t have a sky or freeview box! I stream everything and have very good internet so it’s never an issue haha

  • aquablu Nicola (@aquablu) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @ITVX I wish I could or that Freeview took on this network a lot of us on pensions can't afford satalite or cable

  • GerryCarpenter3 Gerry Carpenter (@GerryCarpenter3) reported from Sunderland, England

    @Claire_Pickard @sueashton3000 Many residents in Sunderland & along the Durham Coast also receive Freeview Channels from the Bilsdale transmitter. The fire is also likely to have knocked out about 30 relay stations, which "feed" on signals from Bilsdale. I wouldn't like to climb up the transmitter to fix it!

    @ukfreetv are there any problems with Bilsdale at the moment? Freeview website says planned maintenance on WC 24th May but no signal at all on 31st May @ DH6 2PZ.

    @Traceyspacey1 @B3Z_Trojan Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview reception. Can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number and we will look into this for you? Thanks, Dylan

    @FreeviewAdvice I have had no freeview since Thursday. M29 boothstown. Is winter hill down?

  • GowSte Stevie G 😷#HandsFaceSpaceFreshAir (@GowSte) reported

    @arabforlife83 Assume bt tv box is connected to internet hub by ethernet. That’s what your bt sport comes down. Tv channels (Freeview) come via aerial. Connect aerial from wall socket into box, then aerial out from box to tv. For aerial signal to pass through to tv, need pass through setting on

    @gregorybelton @BiscuitHalf @Reachingbroom The BBC licence fee supports the Freeview platform - no BBC and Channel 4 (the commercial side of public service broadcasting) - no Freeview. :There's no such thing as a free lunch'.

  • JulianRadbourne Julian Radbourne (@JulianRadbourne) reported from Cromer, England

    @UKTVPlay Will the first episode of series 5 of Waiting for God be on the catch-up service? Can't find it on either Sky+ or Freeview.

  • DarthElliot . (@DarthElliot) reported

    @Cuppa378 It’s free because they’re contractually obligated to provide it for freeview. As they were happy to show the EL final in full resolution on YouTube 3 days back, not doing the same for the CL as the more important competition is pathetic.

  • Cartoonist_Rob Rob The Cartoonist (@Cartoonist_Rob) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Has your service stopped? I am unable to stream any Freeview related material currently.

  • HealyMarr Marr Healy (@HealyMarr) reported

    I can't understand why itv4hd isn't available on freeview. Watching the tennis is awful.

  • nicholasclark13 Nicholas Clark (@nicholasclark13) reported

    @FreeviewTV any sign of a Freeview streaming stick? Would make so much sense for poor signal areas or houses with thick walls!
