☘️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.

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

Sarah Jane Illingworth 😷💗 (@SJIFreddyFan82) reported from Castleford, EnglandI 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.

Simon 💙💛 (@ElGaineseo) reported from Leeds, England@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.

Paul O'Flynn (@palyniam) reported from Gildersome, England@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.

Matthew (@PaganOnTour) reportedThe welsh freeview is crap, I tuned my tv in it picks up the welsh freeview only not English and I wanted to use it last night for talksport or lbc radio on freeview and its only got half, like all bbc smooth & heart
-
Sam Clark (@sambakey) reported@easternsparkle @Felstedboy We have Freesat, not Freeview, but can't you scroll down the TV guide to see where it is? I can on Freesat through my TV.
-
pete wright (@prwright55) reported@ArthurSteggles @craig100 @jdpoc Neither of which many people have, I don't myself as it happens. So people who only want to watch a few "freeview" channels will have to spend loads more money than they ever have before to watch the same old ****
-
Kenny Jaymes. Never Forget Rememberance Sunday (@DJKennyJaymes) reportedOn a lighter note... @TLC really is the worst network on freeview. 10 minutes of a show, 12 minutes of adverts, 10 minutes of a show, 12 minutes of adverts and on it goes. What crap is this?
-
Sam Gates 1997 (@SamGate360) reported@bluealoud Poor people had Freeview, working people had Virgin, middle people had Sky and rich people had Apple iMax home cinema room with refreshments bar and heated recliner sofas.
-
JT (@JBT0108) reported@jdpoc My elderly neighbours will be lost without Freeview. To be honest it’s also the back up for many Virgin and Sky subscribers when their systems go down.
-
LostInFilms🎬 (@Lost_In_Films_) reported@our_ents_blog Me too, I miss Forces TV used to show Watching. I wish we could get Rewind, Great TV & Thats TV 3 here but our freeview reception is so bad we can only use Freesat.
-
Patrick Kirby (@Kirby_1475) reported@themarketsniper Hi Francis. I am sorry that you are undervalued by freeview er... investors? I do not and have never undervalued anyones efforts which I always thought took time and a great deal of effort. You withdrawing is a huge loss to the community, but I understsnd, why shouldnt you? next-
-
Nikki Nisbet (@Nesquik1962) reported@BBCFOUR4 Showing what I assume is a repeat but I've not seen it. 7pm Freeview 9 #Squirrelonmyshoulder an orphaned grey. I'm guessing before the draconian rules came into place. When people were allowed to help the injured, old or orphaned regardless of criteria.

“Tom”. (@NotThatTomGreen) reportedTurned some old TNA on one of the freeview services while doing laundry. He was clearly going through some **** away from the ring and the storyline was awful, but Brian Christopher literally crying for weeks because Sean Waltman kissed his girlfriend is some great ****.
