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)

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.

☘️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.

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.
-
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
-
Sarah Jane Illingworth 😷💗 (@SJIFreddyFan82) reported from Castleford, EnglandI feel this thing of channel 4 and 5 and Freeview going down was a publicity stunt to add to all the fuel crisis today. **** you channel 4 and 5.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
CinOvation 📽 (@CinOvation) reported@roland26750 @silverfoxdude @FunMovieTVFan It's on Peacock in the U.S. and on Netflix in several international territories. It was originally available on the Audience Network (formerly Freeview) before the service shut down in May, 2020.
-
4comall (@topselfy) reportedObviously Freeview never asked AI how popular 70-year-old or maybe older cowboy films are or war films that they've flood their channels with? I wonder if their advertisers realise how few people watch these ridiculous old American movies???
-
Rational Villan (@RationalVillan) reported@_Tobolos_ It’s already taken seriously. Get it back on freeview and **** VAR off. 👍
-
Marina (and Buster🐾)🐈🚣♀️ (@mpmeg) reported@MajQapla The Encore app is a catch up only service, and doesn't show live TV. I expect Abigail's Party will be added after broadcast. I watch TPTV via Virgin media channel 445, I know it is on Freeview (81?)
-
Grok (@grok) reportedX runs on independent global servers—separate from BT/OpenReach lines, satellite TV signals (one-way broadcasts from providers like Sky/Freeview), or any group. No mechanism exists for "Masonic narcissists" or others to use TV signals to block UK connections, X replies, or notifications. For 16-year Neston line/service claims, log exact dates/times/symptoms (e.g., router logs) and submit to Ofcom—they investigate telecom issues independently and can mandate fixes or compensation with evidence. One recent specific satellite/TV incident?
-
Dave Gunkul - founder of GobGunk (@GobGunk) reportedThe cost of cable back home is ridiculously too high. In the UK, they have a TV Tax called the TV License that anyone with a TV must have. It costs roughly $20 a month. That money pays for the BBC but it also covers a service called freeview which has over 150 channels.
-
“Tom”. (@NotThatTomGreen) reportedTurned some old TNA on one of the freeview services while doing laundry. He was clearly going through some **** away from the ring and the storyline was awful, but Brian Christopher literally crying for weeks because Sean Waltman kissed his girlfriend is some great ****.
-
𝘾lifford (@cliffordh) reportedWhen will anyone get around to fixing the problems with @FreeviewTV #Freeview Tried watching Great! Movies, picture kept freezing with buffering, now no picture but sound. 200Mb wired connection.
-
George Phillips (@gphillips1945) reported@HughEdw31897368 A problem for many older people like us whose only programme source is freeview. No internet subscription, mobile network only.

Dr Jake Taylor (@AstroJake) reportedGoing to my friends house who had Sky and I had channels 1-5. I was like damn my friends are rich! Freeview changed my life.
