  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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 😂

    @virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @LushJEL I'm not much of a TV person as I don't really like it, but I found channel 83 on Freeview TV which is NOW The 80s, so some nights I just have it on in the background, lots of crap but also some good old ones 👍

  • 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

  • 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

    @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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

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

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

  • tomgliv_tom Tom Gould (@tomgliv_tom) reported

    @SmoothDsNuts @NoContextBrits Benny Hill is on every night on That's TV (Channel 65 on Freeview). Watched a few episodes, I had forgotten how totally awful it was, definitely the lowest of low comedy!

  • Ondarian_ASMR Ondarian ASMR - (He/Him) 👈🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🇺🇳 (@Ondarian_ASMR) reported

    @bluebellchoppy He was on TV over Christmas, apparently he's a TV cook now on Food Network on Freeview/Sky.

  • FreeFilmsUK FreeFilms UK (@FreeFilmsUK) reported

    Bad news bears, this morning's showing of Three Colors: Red (1994) starring Joseph Fiennes as Bebop has been abandoned due to the only good actor being a dead actor. #freeview

  • gibluap Paul Riley (@gibluap) reported

    @itvMLshow Broadband, ours is typed to landline, TV and BB, TV we cannot receive Freeview, so our options are cable or satellite. My package was due to increase to £118, got offered a deal with Gigabit and £30 off, down to £88, then got it reduced to £78, ismybill fair down to £68.

  • sharonkaraa Sharon Karaa (@sharonkaraa) reported

    @Argos_Online I will NEVER shop at Argos again. Purchased a freeview box - only got 14 channels. Tried to return it and because I'd tried it you have refused. Absolutely disgusting! How is someone to know something doesn't work until they try it???

  • Quoton Brian Campbell (@Quoton) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @Johnson66892442 @Nick_Metcalfe One thing which may help is that you can go to red button by choosing channel 981 on Sky or 301 on freeview, if you want to avoid iplayer👍

  • Topaz_Jules Julie (@Topaz_Jules) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice we seem to have lost our freeview HD channels on all our TVs in PL7, is this a known issue?

  • FreeFilmsUK FreeFilms UK (@FreeFilmsUK) reported

    Unhappily, today's showing of Dog Day Afternoon (1975) starring The Cat in the Hat as Angus MacGyver has been postponed due to flu, but the really bad one. #freeview

  • TimBolton01 Tim Bolton (@TimBolton01) reported

    Just lost my TV signal. Retuned it and now only got 17 Freeview channels. WTF?

  • UKTVPlayHelp UKTV Play Help (@UKTVPlayHelp) reported

    @FO2D_ All right, can you come back to us if you still see the issue tomorrow after lunch? It looks like freeview servers (where you get the ads from) did have some issue today so it could explain why you got few issues.
