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

  • NeelyFanForever ☘️NeelyFanTerry ☘️ (@NeelyFanForever) reported from Garforth, England

    @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.

    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

  • NEFamilyFun Sam Rickelton | North East Family Fun (@NEFamilyFun) reported from Leeds, England

    @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)

    @Philips @philips_uk @FreeviewTV @PhilipsCare 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.

  • SLCollindridge Sean Collindridge (@SLCollindridge) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @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

  • shanesaysthat Shane Mc Quillan (@shanesaysthat) reported

    @ClarNiUigin I wasn't sure how it worked on a free freeview box so was hoping it was a simple solution for you! Sometimes just a quick look can find these things. Glad it worked out

  • Cartoonist_Rob Rob The Cartoonist (@Cartoonist_Rob) reported

    @Philips It's buggered! Freeview Play and all its associated Apps have all stopped, producing error FVP-300 and FVP-400. Even the @RakutenTV app has stopped. Can you do an urgent fix, please? This is caused from your recent update and many people are affected.

  • Carti_Mandua LadyAnniSpiceInCognito#CountessBimboIsBack# (@Carti_Mandua) reported

    @Gidon_Barak We watch most docs on Freeview about the camps etc ..horrific I know but more people need to watch them ... & whats noticable is that the survivors when telling their awful stories always smile are never bitter ... certain people could learn from this .. brings tears to my eyes

  • JSDMN87 Jen (@JSDMN87) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam since the update the smart box (the freeview version) is really slow and can’t watch tv from the TV guide, have to go into the nowtv bit. Is this issue going to be resolved? Some shows are glitching too. My broadband is working perfectly. #nowtv

  • anneshine33 Anne (@anneshine33) reported

    @colinbrazierGBN Can’t get freeview we have no Ariel. All through sky or internet. Help !

  • jsblake_uk jsb (@jsblake_uk) reported

    @GBNEWS Thank **** we only get Freeview light.

  • Logicumdictatu1 Logicumdictatus (prime minister elect) (@Logicumdictatu1) reported

    @minxyme72 Don't watch terrestrial TV anymore, at worst may put something on freeview that I know that I want to watch, but that is very rare as 99.9% of it is total woke pc crap.

  • jasondcoles Jason Coles (@jasondcoles) reported

    @LGUK Sorry but its still disappointing, separate apps for each catch service is not user friendly hence the need for Freeview Play. It’s a kick in the teeth for those who have invested in your product, especially as your promoting new models with Freeview Play. We have been let down!!

  • FeelitWorking aka James Bond (@FeelitWorking) reported

    @AppSecBloke I was complaining at Virgin for putting the Bill up to £57/month when the TV service is the same as Freeview&Freesat and I don't need a home phone. Only with them for Internet until I find a different offer. People I work with pay hundreds a month for services you mention.
