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

  • 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

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?

  • RegenerateAndy Andy Smith (@RegenerateAndy) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Channel ‘Pick’ on freeview. Never heard of it before but grateful for it tonight #chelsea

  • 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.

  • Dante_Banks Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England

    @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.

  • 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

  • Stroudgreenguy J. Alfred Prufrock (@Stroudgreenguy) reported from Tottenham, England

    @Channel4 Hello. Can I watch Channel 4 *live* through the All 4 app on smart TV? All I see is catchup. I would like to watch CH 4 news every night but my aerial is broken, no Freeview. Please advise.

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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

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

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

  • cycleoptic cycleoptic💙💚 (@cycleoptic) reported from Islington, England

    @jock_savage @ruskin147 This licence lets you use and install receiving equipment at the licensed place. watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat) watch live on streaming services (e.g. ITVX, All 4, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Now, Sky Go)

  • maggieinlondon Maggie - wear a mask 💙🏳️‍🌈🌱 (@maggieinlondon) reported from Wandsworth, England

    With all this wall to wall coverage crap of a dead man by @skynews and @bbcnews Netflix and Freeview's viewing figures must be the highest they've ever been.

  • wewatchu2 Dan On Stolen Land (@wewatchu2) reported

    @victoria_racing I had a weird one from a service group but to do with Kogan lack of service. Can't see Optus in this unless someone is listening. Or reading..all I want is an app fix. Not paying for fixing freeview

  • checkpointminx Hillman Minx owner 1965 starmerout (@checkpointminx) reported

    @rossaverde @BBCTees @amy_oakden The BBC applies for grants to help fund its research into broadcasting technology that has contributed to developments such as Freeview and DAB digital radio. In 2017-18 it received a grant from the EU of €1,282,331 (£1,145,572).

  • wurzel260654 Sarah , Lucy,Nella and Wurzel . (@wurzel260654) reported

    @Stephen87495131 @SkyNews They will. So pay tv needs to go Nothing wrong with freeview. Don't buy or take contracts out on the dearest ipads. The Government help for utilities should have been means tested and increased. 100% increase is unaffordable. Food prices are rising especially essential foods.

  • Colin08302719 Colin (@Colin08302719) reported

    @5_News In Londond on freeview channel 105 the lip sink is so bad its not watchable. On freeview ch5 it's bad but you can just about watch.

  • phil_creighton Phil Creighton (@phil_creighton) reported

    @Page_888 @russty_russ When there's a cheaper alterative for a quarter of the price, and there's a cost of living crisis - it's an easy cutback. If I was Radio Times King, I'd make print edition Freeview channels only and try and get price down to £2. Would mean a lot of changes to get there.

  • explodingwalrus Carl Draper (@explodingwalrus) reported

    Don't buy @panasonic Freeview recorders if you want to keep more than a thousand recordings per drive, because that's the stupid arbitrary limit they've set on drives. Want to fill up that 6TB hard drive? Tough, the arbitrary limit means you'll barely full it up at all

  • toastman . (@toastman) reported

    @ScotlandNT **** off indefinitely until these are regularly on freeview.

  • greenrascal_ Mike Green (@greenrascal_) reported

    @ragnar23395466 @SkyNews So what are the poor people going to watch? Freeview? I guess they can't afford Sky, Netflix or Amazon either then not to mention the output of new content on the two streaming services would be tiny in comparison with the BBC.

  • littleblueshed Lynne Aldridge (@littleblueshed) reported

    @helensclegel Not on Netflix, but Great TV (Freeview 50) has that kind of stuff, plus US done-to-deaths such as Murder, She Wrote. As someone with mobility issues, with a partner who has spent over a year recovering after a serious accident, I know about harmless crap TV.

  • christie_rudd Chris/Christie/Chrissy❤️ (@christie_rudd) reported

    @LauraRebeccaa @tvshows_addict1 @KCoubrough17 I'm watching it all again to get proper sense on seasons I haven't been able to see. Season 16&17 are on Freeview with ads but too many and then season 23 I found on Hulu got rid of that app because it was stupid amounts of ads every 2 seconds
