    @tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

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

  • Davidp1103 Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @Complyorcry @Back_Two_Mee To @TalkTalk they are okay but the broadband is not a good as VM but it's okay; it cut the monthly bill in half. I have since dropped their tv service and bought a freeview recorder. Monthly bill for broadband/phone £38

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported from Camberwell, England

    My broadband has gone down, so stuck watching QVC on Freeview.

  • MartinC93414706 Martin (@MartinC93414706) reported from Lambeth, England

    @channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

  • PurpleDon1973 MadameCholet (@PurpleDon1973) reported from Ilford, England

    Some days I really wish I'd kept all those calls to @JimDavisOnAir on my freeview box. I've been sent way back in time with a USB memory stick, a few years back with some calls. Damn, I really miss those days with the song choice and #JimDavisLive And it was just brilliant radio

  • u0421793 Ian K Tindale (@u0421793) reported from East Ham, England

    The Good, the Bad and The Ugly is just starting now on Paramount network freeview 32

  • Davidp1103 David-19 (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @TalkTalk It would be nice if you could reduce or remove a £40 charge for an engineer who called but made no inspection of equipment, explained that Freeview channels had been altered; a fact that your customer services were not aware of, but should have known.

  • summers_allan Allan Kempson (@summers_allan) reported from Romford, England

    @talkSPORT @Sjopinion10 That's a bad idea. Sky have rights to other sports too, so a netflix football service would be yet another thing to pay for if you like multiple sports. More football needs to be on freeview channels like BBC and ITV.

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

    @nowtvhelp I still got my old with the built-in Freeview TV all that still work and I do I'll come back to you because I transferred my account to BT I Wish I Never now if that box doesn't work I have to buy my NOW TV stick from you?

  • AStrangerJ A.j. Stranger #UTAG (@AStrangerJ) reported from Bromley, England

    On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

    @bt_uk I got a problem it's not my fault and it's not BT issue I lost a lot of Freeview channels in my flat I went to no cancel and said you can have a dish because aerials are very bad in your area where you live we've had a lot of people coming to us about the same problem

  • shoxtl2 Carl (@shoxtl2) reported from Croydon, England

    @MyHydeHome @SCCIAlphatrack Not even sure how that's possible there's no record anyways over the weekend we lost signal for the communal aerial it has become very weak very pixelated can pick up the Freeview HD channels

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    @Forces_TV hi guys having a few problems with your freeview picture in London it freezes or breaks up had it since Friday

  • LILBUBBLE1 Bu88ble (@LILBUBBLE1) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    Time for the BBC to close down the BBCNews channel as they always seem to put it on BBC1 at same time WHY as BBCNews is available on sky freesat and freeview you dont need it on BBC1

  • flowergirl_lon Sam (Flower Girl) Jennings (@flowergirl_lon) reported from Croydon, England

    @GeorgeBollands @gemoore83 @BBCSport Ok… I have Now tv so don’t think I can get that but I’ll have a look. My regular freeview is crap as I don’t have an aerial, only have internet streamed TV.

  • XtopherCalvert Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • 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.

  • LittleTed84 Chris Roberts (@LittleTed84) reported

    @ITVXhelp You haven't even managed to launch on You view the Freeview platform, and from your response you don't currently have any plans to do so, which is rather worrying, never mind the missing BritBox content Doc Martin you only have S9 & S10, Britbox has S1 to S10 🤬

  • E17Observatory Walthamstow Observatory (@E17Observatory) reported

    Hi @plex, Seasons Greetings to you all. I'm looking to add a USB TV device to my @NVIDIASHIELD, I'd prefer to use Freesat as it's better quality than Freeview but @HauppaugeHQ say you don't support DVB-S - is this likely to change anytime soon - especially as DVB-T is at risk?

  • AlexLaverty4 Alex Laverty (@AlexLaverty4) reported

    @rickygervais I never watched it. If it's on Netflix I'd need to **** ma granny. If it's on Prime I'd rather shimmy Besos shiny we heid. If it's on Disney I'd rather watch Mickey Mouse copulating with Donald Duck. But if it's on Freeview..... trying catch it

  • gunslingerx2011 Beastlordius (@gunslingerx2011) reported

    @TailedFeature I usually just put on their website that im not using freeview and thats about it. It's bit annoying to do it every year, but so far had no issues.

  • iwomblearound Sharon M (@iwomblearound) reported

    @FreeviewTV, could you advise if there is an long term issue with freeview in the area of Surrey as it went down at 11am this morning, Christmas Day and it's not been working since #freeview

  • BrainScramblie Spooky_Sea_Hag 🏴‍☠️☃️🎄 (@BrainScramblie) reported

    @MidThirstling ahhhh got it well i don't cos i live in cesspit england!! lol i live in tory central but in one of the many pockets of poor folks. cant have freeview unless i pay £200 to have a boosted ariel installed and as its a bungalow itd need a pole as high as the roof is!

  • BRCWCo BRCW Co Ltd (@BRCWCo) reported

    Is anyone else having trouble with Freeview? Over 100 TV channels and only around 10 are actually watchable!

  • TheAndrewF Andrew F (@TheAndrewF) reported

    There's an old Benny Hill show on one of those cheapo Freeview channels. Obviously it's dodgy by today's standards, but more than that... it's just crap. So much for TV's golden age.

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    Must be a problem with the Freeview EPG this morning as the #NeverendingStory is scheduled to end at 1pm.

  • FreeviewTV Freeview (@FreeviewTV) reported

    @toyhaul @JeffBezos Hi, Freevee is not Freeview sorry. You would need to contact the platform you use Freevee on for support with this. Thank you, Melissa
