    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • happyborg happyborg: decentralising & democratising (@happyborg) reported

    @RadioTimes Thx. Lenovo Android tablet with latest Firefox. Clicking Freeview (or other things) causes the display to flicker repeatedly very fast, and I can see the text briefly "server error" between the screens it is displaying. I'm now using the freeview website tv guide without problem

  • ThatsTVOfficial That's TV (@ThatsTVOfficial) reported

    @rockgod1970 @FreeviewTV If you can’t receive us where you live or you don’t have a Freeview HD TV then you will still normally be able to receive us via the Vision TV portal on Freeview channel 264 (internet-connected TV required) Maybe @FreeviewAdvice can help?

  • FreeviewTV Freeview (@FreeviewTV) reported

    @Gucci_Hughes Hi Brad, Unfortunately, Freeview is only viewable via a aerial at this time, you can use the catch up service online. Thanks George

  • tashatam14 tashatam (@tashatam14) reported

    @benonwine Get plenty of practice here in rural Devon, where the power and internet go off quite regularly, and many of us have no mobile signal at all (or mains sewage, decent water pressure, gas, public transport, road repairs, freeview signal - you name it, we don't have it)

  • JasonFlavell Jase 🎢 (@JasonFlavell) reported

    @timpez123 It can be, it entirely depends on your Wi-Fi, it relies on that entirely, if your wife is down the TV is pretty much defunct apart from if you have an arial in it for free view. Same applies if you cancel the sky subscription, the TV is basically a dead tv other than freeview

  • StevenGillespi4 Steven Gillespie. (@StevenGillespi4) reported

    @GBNEWS Meaning I only have Freeview do have access to BBC but that is what it is spinning, Sky cinematic shots of explosions not bad but repeated endlessly GB News doing a sterling job I have heard discussioms & you have taken polls must say it's good.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @gffcontwitch @BBCNews @FreeviewTV Hi, I am so very sorry to learn you are experiencing issues with your Freeview reception. Can you please DM Freeview Advice your full postcode and house name/number and we will look into this for you. Thank you, Melissa

  • mwoodwriting Matthew Paul Wood (@mwoodwriting) reported from Redcar, England

    There's an important point to be made about internet freedom and search algorithms but I can't be bothered all that so... The internet is like Freeview now. "Do you want this crap thing you didn't ask for on CNN 1, CNN 2, or CNN extra?" 😾

  • triplemeister Jay Hill (@triplemeister) reported from Downham Market, England

    @R59V8 I don't know what we pay, so I don't know how good a deal we get. But at least with Freeview you are close enough to the big mast to get no issues. Up here it is terrible - The slightest tropo and it's unwatchable

  • mikemart1n Mike Martin (@mikemart1n) reported

    @StevieClaridge @ichoosemag Dave Hills Dave kills where funny fringed guitarist hunts down comedians who have appeared on the freeview channel. Not suitable for family viewing.
