    Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

    @Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

    @Forces_TV rapidly becoming one of the best channels on TV but alas it's no longer showing on the BT box because of weak signal in the Sunderland area so cannot watch, or record anything for catch-up later. Is this a transmitter issue? @bt_uk Still getting it via Freeview on TV

    FreeView is the most pointless load of crap ever.

    @lastminutelin If you are still experiencing problems you will need to speak to the Freeview helpline as the retune should have been all that was needed. Freeview advice line on 03456 505050

    I’ve rescanned FreeView 10 times already this evening and keep getting 23 channels. The last time I rescanned was before Christmas last year and managed to over 100 channels. Sort your crap out FreeView!

  • philipnolan1 Philip Nolan (@philipnolan1) reported

    @StainlessSRat @HobdellTerry @utv You’ve misunderstood me. They’re still on my Sky box. They’ve disappeared from the Saorview/Freeview boxes. The issue is I can’t record them on Sky, but I have a hard drive on the Saorview ones.

  • TheFunksterFaz Faron Collins (@TheFunksterFaz) reported

    @DaveModculture You need to get one of those recordable Humax freeview boxes. The hard drive on mine is full of films from Talking Pictures that'll I'll never get around to watching.

    Scammers and content stealers who swipe your pics and post your content on freeview sites and thats caused more to go down the post and go wont interact anymore on posts and thats a massive shame cause quite afew i found are nice people and sad to see they took this route but

  • TomSingleton4 Tom 🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🌻 (@TomSingleton4) reported

    I ******* hate FreeView. It never works properly and every time you have to rescan to update channels, you end up loosing even more. Oh and I can’t afford Sky so don’t even go there.

    I got my current TV 2 years ago and having no Internet this morning I've just had to learn how to navigate the regular TV side of it instead of streaming. The selection of stuff on offer is shockingly bad on Freeview. 😱 At least I can still listen to @KerrangRadio! 🤘
