    @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)

  • 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.

    @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.

  • SJIFreddyFan82 Sarah Jane Illingworth 😷💗 (@SJIFreddyFan82) reported from Castleford, England

    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.

    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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • StephenAkehurs1 Stephen Akehurst (@StephenAkehurs1) reported

    @ThatTimWalker @skytv Was thinking of cancelling Sky and going back to Freeview as never anything on worth watching. This just about confirms it!

  • manstol1 LeeJames (@manstol1) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I have a Sky+ HD Box, but have downgraded & now just pay £5 a month to have access to the Planner/Pause Live TV/Record Function/Freeview Channels. I’ve spoken to 3 different customer service operators & none of them can tell me definitively whether I can buy the

  • MellyStark Melly Welly (@MellyStark) reported

    anyone else having issues getting #BBC channels on #Freeview tonight... all our others are fine. we're postcode SA65 #asktwitter

  • GoldnPath Goldenpath (@GoldnPath) reported

    @supertanskiii @skytv I’m already so close to cancelling Sky and going Freeview and streaming channels … can’t believe they wasted my money on this crap

  • Lundavra JMB (@Lundavra) reported

    @sophielouisecc I have never seen GBNews, mainly because we have no coverage here from it on Freeview Lite. But I have never spoken to anyone who has watched it?

  • SteveMay_UK Steve May (@SteveMay_UK) reported

    Ho! Ho! Ho! Just heard that the GREAT! Movies Christmas channel is returning to Freeview beginning September 8 - because it's never too early to celebrate Xmas, right? Time to get the decos down from the loft!

  • VincentVanGrump vintendo BS (@VincentVanGrump) reported

    @afneil Why are you lot so ******* obsessed with shite from a century ago. You watch a History Channel documentary on Freeview and think you're all Whinston Churchill. Put the bunting down. You weren't even alive. YOU personally didn't win **** all. Learn from extremism. Be better.

  • storey966 Tynmar (@storey966) reported

    @Bert1897 @J0hn8ev @MikeKeegan_DM ******* you're stupid. If they stop the TV licence, how do you think they'll fund the BBC & the freeview platform? We'll just start paying for it through taxation.

  • MightyMalicos MightyMalicos (@MightyMalicos) reported

    @happysolderer @BBCNews Why didn’t you answer my question? Both freesat boxes and satellite dish installations are expensive. Also Freeview and Freesat boxes have incredibly low power cost. Its around £17 over the course of a year. What you said came across as a sly dig at the poor. But do carry on
