    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • 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 😂

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

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

  • D_Hollingsworth Dan Hollingsworth (@D_Hollingsworth) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    When did BBC4 HD. Leave Freeview? What a load of ****, missed a chunk of #TOTP and joining it late with Michael ruddy Jackson.

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @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

  • psnow85 Peter Snow (@psnow85) reported from Arkley, England

    @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.

    Just watched a 15 minutes on Freeview 81 The AA lads that ran out rescuing broken downs on M'bikes with the tools in the sidecar Happy Days Eh !!

  • mrjonnotweet Mrjonno 🌱🌍 🏳️‍🌈 ⌛💚 One Earth One Chance (@mrjonnotweet) reported

    @terrychristian @mcwarthog I took a period of relapse in depression and couldn't face our dreadful world. I mostly stayed in bed and flicked through the freeview channels and the problem is there - shopping for junk, past is great, or maybe not, aliens and gods, scifi and shooting. No wonder we're a mess..

  • UKtodayUK 442 days to flatten the curve (@UKtodayUK) reported

    Anyone else got problems with Freeview I lost most of my channels at midnight

  • suzysasha elizabeth scott 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@suzysasha) reported

    @Patricia344130 During the week it's fine but weekend TV is awful. I don't have Netflix etc only Freeview. I sometimes put dvds on of my fav shows. If you live alone there's not much else to do and the TV is company.

  • BretonGooner Jo (@BretonGooner) reported

    @philriding160 @SkyUK Yep, had sky TV for 5 years, kept increasing prices and it was the most basic package. Cancelled it and just watch Freeview now. Don't miss it 1 bit, realised most programs I watched were on Freeview anyway. Also saving a fair amount of money every year too. Never going back.

  • thisisrjg Dr Jamiebear 🐻 (@thisisrjg) reported

    TIL my mum likes to tune in to the awful Freeview religious channels in order to laugh at their output and I've never been so proud.

  • NightstrikeX NightstrikeX (@NightstrikeX) reported

    Seen Metallica a couple of times over the last two days on Freeview Channel "Sky Arts", what a worn out pile of shite. Thank **** I've never bought tickets to see them, it's like watching a pile of lack luster tired old pensioners trying to relive their glory years. #PastIt 💩

  • veryoldbilly Bill Swan (@veryoldbilly) reported

    @BBCMonitoring @Ofcom @Freeview To whom can one report TV reception problems? Freeview and Ofcom direct to the BBC’s site, which requires 15 minute completion of details before announcing that ‘there was a problem - please try again’. Repeatedly. No TV reception for 3 days

  • MildlyHotTakes Ben (@MildlyHotTakes) reported

    @stephenkb I will vote for whatever new party you start to campaign on this issue. Preferably one called "Change (the channel) UK" I'm literally going to spend 20 quid on a freeview box because of this failure of technology. And I will be absolutely indignant about it.

  • KTCCLawson Shunma Katy-sumata Lawson (@KTCCLawson) reported

    @Harryc3000 @CuratorOfSands It was never a thing on Freeview television.
