  • NEFamilyFun Sam Rickelton | North East Family Fun (@NEFamilyFun) reported from Leeds, England

    @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.

    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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

    @FreeviewTV My freeview down all day. Just went off at 9sm this morning and still off. Have tried retuning etc no success! York area. What is the problem?

  • timrobi12026017 tim robinson (@timrobi12026017) reported

    So poor I khan only dream freeview 😳

  • nichols_tim Lord Worzel Binbag of Custard, Esq. (@nichols_tim) reported

    @nicholsonprop @DavidPoulden Then you and your GBeebie chums can freeload off the rest of us. Who do you thinks pays for the Freeview service GBeebies transmits on?

  • mecafolidas Mark Foley (@mecafolidas) reported

    @RupertLowe10 Are you thick or just determined to keep on spreading BS? It's impossible under for the BBC to become a subscription service because you CAN'T charge under subscriptions via Freeview - which is how most access TV. Any change would be a Tax to support local radio & TV Advertising

  • Nick2169Bruce N B P (@Nick2169Bruce) reported

    @bbcpress @JackEDeakin @BBC The public has to pay for the TV licence just so we can watch freeview channels,£160.44 a year goes down the drain.

  • Helen_Atchison Helen Atchison (@Helen_Atchison) reported

    @mrchrisaddison You can say all that and yet most people have actually stopped using "freeview" to pay for other channels. Kids ditch cbbc the second they have cartoon network, Disney and nickelodeon. Adults do the same too for other things. They like the choice.

  • DarrylTypeR Darryl (@DarrylTypeR) reported

    @virginmedia hey, quick question, if i cancel my contract do i still get to keep the virgin box? And would i still be able to watch freeview channels through it? Thanks.

  • kareng3 Karen Gorham (@kareng3) reported

    @GMB @GCGodfrey I have 2 pieces of good advice, cancel expensive Sky subscriptions and Mobil contracts, change to Freeview and pay as you go.

  • TheFunksterFaz Faron Collins (@TheFunksterFaz) reported

    @DaveModculture You need to get one of those recordable Humax freeview boxes. The hard drive on mine is full of films from Talking Pictures that'll I'll never get around to watching.
