    @DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

  • Beige29 DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

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

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

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

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

  • Marmalord Marmalord (the) (@Marmalord) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @itvhub Humax FVP-4000T 1TB Freeview Set Top Box Recorder, and having to sign in more or less every time is making us all dislike Martin Freeman

  • 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.

  • 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

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • JensFallesen Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England

    @leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

  • Beige29 Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    @loudouglas75 I have such shit freeview I only have itv2+1

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • omotforest david sinfield #pssc (@omotforest) reported from West Molesey, England

    To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  • niklasRen Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

  • vjlorenzato Victoria Lorenzato (@vjlorenzato) reported from Brentford, England

    Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • a516digital Mike (@a516digital) reported

    @markisawimp @garyb007 Signal should be the same as before (same frequency, same transmitter). Your TV may have added a weaker copy from a relay in the 800s. You'll probably have to do a full retune, that'll ensure you have all the latest Freeview channel updates.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @Vee2011Vee Hi, there. Sorry to hear that you're having problems receiving Freeview but if you can DM us your postcode along with house number or name, we can check for any known issues in the area and advise from there. Fraser

  • DawsonsLeftPeg Error404 (@DawsonsLeftPeg) reported

    @Elliot_CB @LeeAndersonMP_ No I pay for the things you don’t get with the “free service”. Like the sky compared to freeview. That fact you can’t figure that out shows the level you’re working with. Try harder.

  • mikeasharp Mike Sharp (@mikeasharp) reported

    @Channel4 can you fix the uplink. England match keeps going pixelated like it does on a satellite feed. Watching on Freeview HD

  • KcD_PhD Kacie D (@KcD_PhD) reported

    Fellow neuroimagers! My RA has a Mac and I'm a PC user. On my end, freeview opens with no problems. On her end, she gets the message "Segmentation fault". IT has tried to help to no avail. Is there some Mac secret that y'all can share? Thank you! @FreeSurferMRI

  • Raxor1Robin Robin Taylor (At home 🏡) (@Raxor1Robin) reported

    @JellyTotPixel @bbcmtd It's the signal not the equipment that's causing the problem even with HD freeview this problem still happens in some areas of the UK, where I live you can't get it with a portable HD receiver, I have to use satellite. as Freeview don't work well.

  • BBCNorfolk BBC Radio Norfolk (@BBCNorfolk) reported

    Phew! Another *very* close finish, but a win today in Gayton with about 65 seconds to spare! Well done all! Sorry again about the problems on FM - the engineers are working on it. Don't forget you can listen online or on Freeview channel 719.

  • metahealer_54 Cryptekk 亮 (@metahealer_54) reported

    How far do you expect this £150 disability cost of living payment to go? - #KayBurley says this one-off payment comes on top of other support for those with disabilities. 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

  • UnknownDB64 Ben (@UnknownDB64) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice hi iv just brought a new tv it has freeview play iv plugged in a internal Aerial but it’s not finding any channel when doing a full retune please help thanks

  • M0YMJ Paul Coppin (@M0YMJ) reported from Worcester Park, England
