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

  • palyniam 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.

    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

  • ElGaineseo 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.

    @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.

    @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)

  • 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

  • EastLight EastLight (@EastLight) reported

    @malfouru48 Every Freeview TV has a CAM interface on the rear; in simple terms, a card slot, to facilitate access to encrypted services. The BBC could encrypt the signal tomorrow and all most people would need to do is insert a card into their TV. The BBC and Gov continue to lie about this.

  • roasty88 Ryan McVeigh (@roasty88) reported

    @bread1970 @aewboro123 @Fightful Tbh ain't a bad deal ayozat is available on sky or through their app or website for anyone in the UK for free so availability is about as good as you get without being on freeview and as mentioned if they do well then a Freeview channel could pick them up at a later date.

  • Drumberny Seamus McCann (@Drumberny) reported

    @txurini @AntoKerr @CahairOKane1 I’m in Fermanagh and get it on RTE on Freeview, no problem.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @adam_markson Channel 100 provide viewers with information regarding Freeview and our phone number so if there are any issues with their service they can phone us to try and resolve them. This has been proven to be very useful for people. Thanks, Dylan

  • peteramblingon Peterf 🇺🇦 (@peteramblingon) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice 21:15 5th July, no Freeview service on my Smart TV. Error msg 'not available. Other streaming services (Youtube, Prime and Netflix) all operating perfectly so not a problem with internet connection

  • adam_markson Adam Markson (@adam_markson) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Thank you, but this still doesn't answer my question. My question was does Freeview itself (i.e. the management of Freeview) not have the authority to remove certain TV channels if they think another broadcaster could provide a better service for both Freeview and the public?

  • kevinr_ryder kevin ryder (@kevinr_ryder) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV Wish your encore service was on Freeview play so much easier and more viewers for you

  • charleyb2355 Charleyb2355 (@charleyb2355) reported

    @JohnInAdelaide1 @xskinn They are in the UK. I just use streaming and catch up. Never watch freeview. Even with my streaming fees it is cheaper than the licence fee.

  • picstoview HotPics.... (@picstoview) reported

    @BrawBandHome @CityFibre Come on how much longer for fixing the Glasgow / Renfrewshire outage. Can’t get online at all other than my limited mobile data. No freeview so need Internet to work from home or watch TV 😡🤬

  • EmmaLovelace Emma Lovelace (@EmmaLovelace) reported

    Now getting 71 Freeview channels today, down from 96 yesterday. Well down from a 147 in the colder times.
