  • 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. 👍

  • 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.

    @TeamGBicehockey Oh dear I can't watch it cause freeview isn't working on bt again terrible channel

  • BarbaraRowley7 Barbara Rowley (@BarbaraRowley7) reported

    @bagga2007 Oh no! Do you have devices for streaming and an internet connection that’ll support it? The Freeview channels all have free apps to watch their programs. They should tide you over until you replace the TV.

  • CEEGEE12 Carole Geddes (@CEEGEE12) reported

    @Oldbird19 We don't have the full service for freeview in my area so can't check with anyone locally

  • TonyJWells TJ is not hiking (@TonyJWells) reported

    @smolrobots Fires up the Roku. So probably 60 seconds behind the freeview signal.

  • misspallen Polly Allen (@misspallen) reported

    @speshmagiclady I wish we had foreign language TV on Freeview to help people get over their apathy around other languages - British people would be much more engaged with learning if the words were passively around them and they could just dip into watching a telenovela or something.

  • CheritonWeather CheritonWeather CT19 (@CheritonWeather) reported

    @LBC @darrenadam I hope not.....It's sad that so many people are happy to pay for subscription services, but not a license fee for what is essentially a good service via Freeview and Freesat. I refuse to line the pockets of companies like Sky, Netflix, Amazon etc

  • RobDeNormandie Rob (@RobDeNormandie) reported

    @MsResJudicata @PlainVa86760081 @getyourgoals16 Projectors are brilliant, under the coffee table with the freeview box or whatever source you use, run an audio lead to your HI fi and project on to any plain painted wall. The one issue is the leads across the carpet, the upside is a huge screen, and when it's off its invisible.

  • briavelsjon Jon Pitts (@briavelsjon) reported

    @softwarescotty (Original reply now corrected). That's fair enough, and unfortunate for sure. But surely if Freeview doesn't cover you, the solution might be Freesat instead?
