  • JonnyRoLi JR (@JonnyRoLi) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @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

  • SummerCrush10 Sam Norris (@SummerCrush10) reported

    @KeepUpWithKFabe In the UK you can pay to watch The AEW PPV's on the night or wait an extra until it goes onto the FREE Channel ITV (which you don't have to pay to watch on Freeview or Sky) but you have to pay to watch it if using their ITV Hub catch up service.

  • ThatsTVOfficial That's TV (@ThatsTVOfficial) reported

    @rockgod1970 @FreeviewTV If you can’t receive us where you live or you don’t have a Freeview HD TV then you will still normally be able to receive us via the Vision TV portal on Freeview channel 264 (internet-connected TV required) Maybe @FreeviewAdvice can help?

  • pipmadeley Pip (@pipmadeley) reported

    @cooraysmith Read a lot of people having the same issue. The Freeview website said we've recently had engineering works in the area, the signals were pretty solid before that.

  • cmfitzg cmfitzg (@cmfitzg) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice We have been struggling for many Freeview channels for 2 or 3 weeks now. Postcode is WR2 4PF. When will we get a proper signal again ?

  • tashatam14 tashatam (@tashatam14) reported

    @benonwine Get plenty of practice here in rural Devon, where the power and internet go off quite regularly, and many of us have no mobile signal at all (or mains sewage, decent water pressure, gas, public transport, road repairs, freeview signal - you name it, we don't have it)
