  • Crewedaddy Richard Seamon (@Crewedaddy) reported from Crewe, England

    @james_blue_cat Can't afford any streaming service or the hardware upgrade to accommodate one. Freeview and iPlayer is enough. Didn't switch telly on Xmas day and Bob and Paul going fishing was my highlight.

  • m7leicauser Andy Barton (@m7leicauser) reported from Comberbach, England

    @FreeviewTV Thanks to Dan at Freeview, the aerial-out retune x2 seems to have cured the problem. 👍

  • CatSlaveUK Slave2Cats 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@CatSlaveUK) reported from Runcorn, England

    @FreeviewAdvice is Freeview down in Halton ?

  • minxsterev helen kirk (@minxsterev) reported from Crewe, England

    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

    OK Day 35 with no #Freeview has just got worse. Got no @bbc5live & no BBC radio on DAB either (obviously no FM with no transmitter. #Freeview need to start answering questions to MP's this is ****, can live with no TV, radio just about but *******, this is 3rd world crap

  • back_the_BBC Back the BBC 📺📻📡📱 (@back_the_BBC) reported

    John Whittingdale leaving @DCMS may be bad news for BBC. He had ruled out a subscription model for the BBC as being technically impossible on Freeview (to replace the licence fee). He was also known to like Tim Davie's reforms of the BBC

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital It's a shame I cant get freeview where I live, as I would have liked to report how com 7 reception is. But it's been poor for a few weeks now, from what others told me.

  • quantum_quasar Henry Brian Shaw (@quantum_quasar) reported

    @DerSchwarzBaron @U_didnt_saythat Yeah think that's the problem. Because GAA sold rights to Sky, sky block it on the RTE channel. Not sure if you can watch it on Freeview or not. But this is what happens when sports do big TV deals.

  • Artemisapphire Tansy Kelly Robson (@Artemisapphire) reported

    Gawping at Freeview while eating brekkie & this Holby City script is utterly dreadful (well, rote, I could write it in my sleep: "Bob: Hey. Chas: Hey, Bob. (Awkward silence). Bob: We need to talk" 🙄) BUT CAN I WRITE MY OWN AWFUL ONE AT ALL? No At least this guy WROTE one

  • Gary1609 Gary (@Gary1609) reported

    @gemandmoll @Bbmorg Which is great for you. So maybe you should be paying through subscription allowing those of us who do not watch their services the right to watch other freeview channels without paying for a service we do not want.

  • Gary1609 Gary (@Gary1609) reported

    @Bbmorg I support no license thereby giving choice for those who want to watch the other Freeview channels but not BBC the right and freedom to do so. In an age of thousands of channels,& streaming,a license should not forced. I hold the same view regardless of which party is in Govt.

  • residentchemist Certified bad *****. ♒ 🇯🇲🇰🇳♿ (@residentchemist) reported

    Really @skytv , no info, no update and now I have to sit on the phone for 30 mins to find out why YOU have cancelled my service? And now I'm being charged for freeview channels which I can get for free??? Nah this is ridiculous.

  • BlakeAntcliff Blake Antcliff (@BlakeAntcliff) reported

    @BBCNews Not just villagers, occasionally try my TV and still can't get a signal (have freesat so not that much of an issue) My Dad has BT Youview box that he barely knows how to use and no Freeview channels at all.

  • ToxophiliteLeon Leon (@ToxophiliteLeon) reported

    @Forces_TV @MakingBlakes7 @GerryAndersonTV If only I could get your channel on freeview in our neighbourhood 😥. Your signal hamsters need to spin their wheels a bit harder!
