    Pensioners, our TV broke down today, just ordered our first ever HD Freeview TV, paid a TV Licence for 50 years so why not embrace this technology we have paid the BBC for all these year @DefundBBC

    @Emmalouisajones @SkyNews Poor retro-protest. You can't cancel Sky News. It's on Freeview.

    I feel this thing of channel 4 and 5 and Freeview going down was a publicity stunt to add to all the fuel crisis today. **** you channel 4 and 5.

    @AmazonHelp I bought a Freeview PVR on my new Argos but have since decided I don't want it. It's still ready for collection at the Huddersfield store. What can I do to cancel this and have my card refunded

    @Sharon43068108 Very annoying! They are now showing the same match on BBC 1 AND 2. We are in a hotel room son only have Freeview. Going to watch Bridget Jones Diary on itv2 - I have my fingers crossed it's not too rude for the kids 🤣 (from what I remember, I think it's ok)

    @MaddFan1 Same thing happened to me a few years ago, I was quite happy watching @AJEnglish on Freeview and then suddenly it went on to freeview HD, which my box wasn't. My problem was finally solved when they started broadcasting live on Youtube.

    @Philips @philips_uk @FreeviewTV I recently purchased a Philips Ambilight 55PUS8204/12 55" Smart 4K Ultra HD HDR LED TV with Google Assistant does it support Freeview play as I can't get the apps to work.

    @HumaxUK only had this fvp-500t since 7th may 20 and its on the blink, freezes, losing recorded programs and Freeview is so slow. Has updates April 2019 but still poor. I would not recommend this at all.

    @BigNGandBertie @sleafordmods I bought a Firestick for around £25. All the Freeview channels are available without Prime. The ITV app is incredibly slow and glitchy through my set top box/DVR, but works well on the Firestick.

    @MarnellRoi53898 @setantaspup Oh didn’t know that, guess you need a satellite or cable service to get it. Not available on Irish Freeview (Soarview) which makes sense. Would imagine a large %tage of Irish homes subscribe to a service that gives them access to the Beeb anyway.

    @evenskate566 Both of us loathe Richard Curtis comedy films, essentially due to the fact they're slushy Freeview crap.

    @RugbyBath Despite Prem Rugby saying it's ITV4, The Freeview planner is saying Chiefs V Sarries - i'd ask Prem Rugby, but they never reply!

    @BBCStokeSport @GMcGarrySport @ThePeterMorse Listening to P&G and the bloke says that no Crewe fans have phoned in! No **** Sherlock, why should we phone in when you can’t be bothered to put us on the RADIO - just in case you don’t understand, Freeview is not available to most people who are not at home! Only 2 teams played

    @Jcaird2 It’s basically freeview albeit a bit cut down via the internet. We have been fine without aerial anyway and missed nothing we like but it will be nice to flick through stuff again and stumbling on something to watch.
