    @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

    @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.

    @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)

  • 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.

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

    @SkyHelpTeam Customer Retentions @SkyUK offered a worse discount than previous agent! Leaving no alternative but to #DitchAndSwitch @SkyUK because of #SkyPriceHikes #Freeview

  • superwonderstar The Industrious Ant (@superwonderstar) reported

    @kaybar007 Any broadcast service - satellite, cable, or Freeview - has to obey the Ofcom size rules, no matter what technology they use. The examples you give of services like Netflix are online services, not broadcast, and not regulated by Ofcom.

  • mp4_toffeeman Craig Foreman (@mp4_toffeeman) reported

    @thedann__ Always avoided it because of him. Our BBC 1 freeview channel went down a few months ago so decided it to give it a go... I lasted less than 5 minutes and turned it off and put the radio on. He was insufferable

  • RebeccaLouWard Rebecca Louise Ward (@RebeccaLouWard) reported

    @OurTardis63 I never got to watch this series of doctor who cause I could not find it on freeview :( On what channel can we watch doctor who these days?

  • JahaanTweets 🌺JahaanTweet🌺 (@JahaanTweets) reported

    @Harley95980236 They have high-speed internet and they do have at least a very good signal for Freeview in the cottage. They just don't want guests staying on their rooms watching TV.

  • sircofdan Sir C of Dan (@sircofdan) reported

    @sunorx @Vicster82 Fortunately the various restraining orders mean you'll never get within a hundred yards of a woman. The closest you'll get to kids will be when you're pressed against the glass outside Curry's trying to make sense of CBeebies on the freeview screens

  • jsinclair29 James Sinclair (@jsinclair29) reported

    @JanetMcwee We have no aerial, have satellite dish that we use for FreeSat. Took the thing down a few years back was thinking of putting it back up to get Freeview, new one.

  • Ben_Blackman Ben Blackman (@Ben_Blackman) reported

    My SMART tv is not near a tv Ariel socket. We usually just watch iPlayer, netflix, now tv etc but I would like to be able to cut out the faff of that to access the freeview channels and menu sometimes.

  • AndrewJFrizzell Andy Frizzell (@AndrewJFrizzell) reported

    The EPG for @FreeviewTV Play on my TV is excruciatingly slow. Is this a @PanasonicUK thing or are all TV’s slow at scrolling through the channels in Freeview play?

  • gerardmurray14 Gerard Murray (@gerardmurray14) reported

    @CellaH26 @PastorJimberoo3 I no longer listen to the biggest gobshite in the country. This is 1+ reason why I do not. Nolan & BBCNI working together. I no longer wish to contribute to their salary. Plz anyone point me to alternative service where i can watch freeview channels without paying BBCNI. Thx!
