    @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

  • ukbronco Paul Mitchell #5280 ⚽ 🏈 🏉 🤘🍺 (@ukbronco) reported from Wibsey, England

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

  • 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.

    @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.

    @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.

  • Dc03Ker Dave Cocker (@Dc03Ker) reported from Gildersome, England

    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

  • 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)

  • NomadicBritish The British Nomad👳🏻‍♂️ (@NomadicBritish) reported

    What happened next truly happened, due to positioning around the table, only myself & the boy could see the TV, he accidentally typed in the number for a freeview **** channel. Not sure what to do, I elected to ignore what he had done & head-down, nibbled on the samosa (3/5)

  • linuxbsdpirate printf(“¢няιѕ м¢gιмρѕєу-נσηєѕ”); (@linuxbsdpirate) reported

    I literally never watch Freeview. I made the mistake of switching it on and remembered how much I hate being bombarded with betting and gambling ads.

  • WooTube Andy Wootton (@WooTube) reported

    @CarlaDoris Manhattan T1 Freeview box £35, if your PC had HDMI-in. Bought my boy the satellite version because had Sky dish but crap TV reception.

  • julie_scan Dr. Julie Scanlon (@julie_scan) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi, My TV is displaying ‘no signal’ this evening. Is there a problem with Freeview ? Or perhaps it is something else at my end. Thanks.

  • HOWJORD Howard (@HOWJORD) reported

    @darkcompass @AbuIbsu @BBCNews It would be nice if you actually had a choice. Buy if you want Freeview without the BBC you still have to pay as there's no way to turn it off. It should be a subscription service.

  • drtoriaredfern Toria Redfern (@drtoriaredfern) reported

    Oh, +now+ I find out there's a Freeview app. After kvetching about Talking Pictures TV for nearly a year. I've decided this is all your fault and not a research fail on my part.

  • DavidBridger David Bridger #BlackLivesMatter (@DavidBridger) reported

    @emsquare_d @CyclingLain We can't get a signal downstairs so watch Freeview upstairs (which we're happy with) and Virgin downstairs. It's that or Sky, which we can't bring ourselves to get because Murdoch. Virgin's business ethos pisses us off, but between that and Sky it's the lesser of two evils.

  • jpcrafty Wordsmith of Filth (@jpcrafty) reported

    @win_confidante I'm still watching freeview on an old analogue TV plus I'm too tight to pay for it. I've got the game of thrones dvds from my sister to watch, I don't like Tom cruise so top gun was never of much interest I've seen an iron-man & a couple of captain America's but nowt special

  • FlissKitson Fliss Kitson (@FlissKitson) reported

    @alexreid1964 @_williamdoyle Yeah NOW TV 7 day free trial, cancel it right after setting it up.. bobs yer uncle. It’ll be on freeview Sky Arts channel again but probably at a ridiculous hour in the morning

  • BFujer birgit fujer 💙 (@BFujer) reported

    @MMaureen01 @aimee60221197 I have only freeview, oh my the weekend is really rubbish. Thank goodness for music, books and my current sunday treat RTE one book readings.
