    @Samantha_J_Rea Hmm not to sure about freeview but definitely freesat it’s been taken off for over a year. Probably the same though. Sucks big time. Anyway. Hope you are well.

    @jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

    If I can say only one positive about this World Cup is that, Football being so accessible on freeview TV is brilliant. This should never change and be more regular. Get more Football on freeview TV!

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @BlitzExternals Hi, there. If the TV isn't letting you accept the Freeview Play Terms and Conditions, check to see if there's a software update available for the TV. Otherwise, you'll need to contact the TVs manufacturer for further support. Fraser

  • MikeRuddick Mike Ruddick (@MikeRuddick) reported

    @itv please fix the glitch that’s making our picture jump. Happening across all Sky channels, normal freeview, but not on freeview HD. Also goes away during ad breaks

  • ukdtt UK Terrestrial TV (@ukdtt) reported

    Channel 12, QUEST, has been added to COM6 (was unlisted [Service 0x6ac0]) #Freeview

  • DaveP2611 AbandonedTrolley (@DaveP2611) reported

    @Lottesometimes Yep I'm streaming my games to my phone from my home network. I have a freeview tuner hooked up to my network, so can watch normal channels live anywhere I want when out and about.

    @winklepin @DanTillotson If you are still having problems when you retune, there is a Freeview helpline that might be worth a chat with? Freeview advice line on 03456 505050

  • adeypops Adrian (@adeypops) reported

    @AJ_Gay_Gardener @JonDev6 @MTennismad Never seen The Crown because I've never been tempted by Netflix. Too much Freeview and Prime as it is!

  • ftsov ftsov (@ftsov) reported

    @di_burrowes73 @NeighboursTV @AmazonFreevee Sorry, I thought perhaps you didn’t realise as you were asking about the Amazon freeview service. Thought i was being helpful. Please accept my apologies. Have a good day.

    @p4G3y30 @MartinSLewis If you watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat), you need to be covered by a TV Licence. You don’t need a TV Licence if you never watch live on any channel, TV service or streaming service, or use BBC iPlayer*. On any device.
