    @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.

    @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.

    @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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • FixatedOn Steve... (@FixatedOn) reported

    @yorkyqui It will likely never hit freeview, it's an Apple TV show, exclusively on Apple TV. If you want to watch it on a laptop or tablet I'm happy to share my login. My tv has Apple TV as an app, like Iplayer...

  • RonTheRetail Ron Ron the Business Mon (@RonTheRetail) reported

    Create and craft is no longer on Virgin Media, I don’t use Freeview due to poor signal and sorry not going to change to Sky. You’ve lost a customer for my craft projects Creat and Craft…..Goodbye.

  • Musicals_Minion Minion Stu OBE 🇬🇧 🏳️‍🌈 (@Musicals_Minion) reported

    @Mike_Fabricant You don't need to pass legislation, just need service providers to not allow them to use their platform. It's not available on virgin media, so why don't sky and Freeview also kick them off? @skytv @FreeviewTV #BackBoris #StandingWithUkraine

  • MattikOtto Otto Mattik (@MattikOtto) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV @jonathancoe @BAFTA That's terrible of them. Your channel is one of the best on Freeview because of the variety and curation. I'm sure you'll get the plaudits in time.

  • ManuHindustan Manu Mohanan (@ManuHindustan) reported

    @Argos_Online ordered LG 43 Inch 43UP75006LF Smart 4K UHD HDR LED Freeview TV - 929/7601 just now from Argos. Money got deductef from my bank, but order not showing in argos website or app. Pls help

  • hrochfor1 Henry Rochford 🇺🇦 (@hrochfor1) reported

    @dhothersall It is currently in talks to have its service broadcast on Sky and Freeview as is the case in Germany and Italy. You have not answered the point about the impact of the BBC being banned to prevent a channel which will be accessible anyway due to existing treaties.

  • LorryLocket Lorrie (@LorryLocket) reported

    @virginmedia absolute joke, customer for 20+ yrs, informed services have had a price increase from £99 to £147, rang up to change services to reduce costs, best they can do is Freeview for £89?! Person I spoke to unhelpful and uninterested 🤯

  • GrumpyKav Kav (@GrumpyKav) reported

    And does this apply to Freeview Play TVs also when not being connected to an internet feed. Many thanks, have an issue with a TV to try and resolve

  • _davidhansard David Hansard (@_davidhansard) reported

    Said I'd help an elderly friend who has poor TV reception due to rural location, get more channels. After call suddenly realised I don't know the first thing about it. Are Freeview channels available via cable? I don't even know how Netflix is received. Or the equipment needed.

  • AnitaMcDonald1 2k💙💙 (@AnitaMcDonald1) reported

    @PrincessMS23 We pay more than double that Fiona and it's ridiculous. I want rid of it but we are stuck as can't get freeview due to poor signal. X
