  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

    @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)

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

    @Chris29Cunningh Are you watching it on freeview?. Yeah it’s bad, but ok on sky or the app.

  • Outside_Margina Outside The Marginals (@Outside_Margina) reported

    How many channels does #C4 have on Freeview? Why can't they run their flagship news program (part of their Public Service) on time on the flagship channel? #c4news

  • TomSingleton4 Tom 🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🌻 (@TomSingleton4) reported

    I’ve rescanned FreeView 10 times already this evening and keep getting 23 channels. The last time I rescanned was before Christmas last year and managed to over 100 channels. Sort your crap out FreeView!

  • roasty88 Ryan McVeigh (@roasty88) reported

    @WrestlingCG1 @SCN_channel I would say that counts. on Freeview it is Channel 265 which should bring you to the vod365 menu and then you just search from there. Just a warning but I think the menu is absolutely awful to navigate.

  • SkyNews Sky News (@SkyNews) reported

    Boris Johnson is being urged to use PMQs today as a "golden opportunity" to issue an apology over his claim that Sir Keir Starmer failed to prosecute Jimmy Savile. Health Minister Ed Argar joins #KayBurley to discuss. 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

  • GreenBin69 Mike Lyon 🇵🇸 🇬🇧 (@GreenBin69) reported

    @karlbeeby @Vlad42250421 @SueSaffa If that's what this dictatorship wants to do, then let's go for a subscription/lo advertising mix, ditch the regional & BBC World functions, slim down a bit, gain real independence, less Interence & Gov can deal with Freeview & pensioners subscriptions. BBC still a global brand.

  • jbarshall JamieB (@jbarshall) reported

    @BBCiPlayerForum I don’t understand why iPlayer has stopped using a grid channel and programme finder for everything that is showing on all the iPlayer channels? It’s a huge omission, makes no sense… I have to use the Freeview app on my phone to see what’s on. BBC pl fix!!

  • TomSingleton4 Tom 🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🌻 (@TomSingleton4) reported

    I ******* hate FreeView. It never works properly and every time you have to rescan to update channels, you end up loosing even more. Oh and I can’t afford Sky so don’t even go there.

  • timinbrum TimInBrum (@timinbrum) reported

    @cybergibbons I plug my freeview pvr into the aerial and network, TV is used as a screen.

  • timrb Tim 💉💉💉 (@timrb) reported

    @whatuptkhere The "freeview" apps now all require a sign in to watch the free to air streams. It's not enough to just sit through ads any more, they have to capture your personal data too.
