  • bulldogbyrne julie byrne (@bulldogbyrne) reported from Hindley, England

    Why do I keep paying for TV service which is shit @BTGroup I get better service on indoor freeview aerial

  • quodignoratum Myles Winstone (@quodignoratum) reported from Warrington, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Definitely. We struggle getting Freeview and as you’re not on BT TV I’m missing my fix!

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

  • Stephen_Writer Stephen Blake (@Stephen_Writer) reported

    @gareth0108 We don't even get 4G or any mobile signal, so not an issue. (Or Freeview, DAB etc.)

  • ArtySej Art Sejdiu (@ArtySej) reported

    @BethMorrey @Channel4 The endgame here is obviously to make C4 launch a 24 hour rolling Boozenight channel that is accessible a few pages down your freeview TV guide

  • AgentSchmith Agent Smith (@AgentSchmith) reported

    @jasonpwalk @Talesofanalfa I would expect you'll need a freesat decoder / set top box at each TV to interpret the signal. It's slightly different from FreeView which the TV may well have a built in digital tuner for, but will expect a tuning signal from on the RF port.

  • actiontiff John F Austin GCE "Eng Lang. 0 level" A* (@actiontiff) reported

    "I'm Alright Jack" is on C 81 Freeview at 2100 If you have never watched it--take a look !!

  • MNH1974 Mark Henderson (@MNH1974) reported

    - Saturday afternoon, time to do something useful. - sees Beadle's About is on That's TV UK Freeview 51 - sits back down #Beadle

  • Jack_Nelligan Jack Nelligan 🇮🇪 🎅🏻🎄 (@Jack_Nelligan) reported

    Film 4, channel 4 E4 and More4 as well as the plus 1 channels are not showing any program information on the Freeview box. Will this problem be fixed?.

  • lornypop Lorna Jane (@lornypop) reported from Wokingham, England

    So what’s on the telly today cause Christmas Day I ended up watching the Food Network channel, that provided more entertainment than the entire freeview network.

  • JoshxReid Josh (@JoshxReid) reported

    Looks like they've quickly cut out that slide on iPlayer and replaced it with a static version of the new downtime slide. Still able to get the 'We're not here right now' on Freeview though

  • brianwinteruk Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England

    @BuddyGB Will watch that on IPlayer. Technical issues with Bilsdale mast means signal is not strong enough for my Freeview PVR to use its two tuners to record more than one programme at a time. Frustrating.

  • Sonic_Sinclair ⚽️Disco-Stu🎩 (@Sonic_Sinclair) reported

    @DVB_Project I have a digital service idea, that could help the older generation about receiving digital information, quick and easy to use without internet, The technology is out there to do this, If you guys have free to air tv like the uk we have Freeview!!!! £££€€€$$$
