  • 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.

  • 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)

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

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

  • 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

    @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.

  • fanxyheon alesha🧸 (@fanxyheon) reported

    champions league matches not being on freeview tv is the worst thing to happen. Why should I have to watch on BT stinky behaviour

  • GladiatrixRedux Gladiatrix52 (@GladiatrixRedux) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV there is a problem with your Encore service via Freeview. A programme playing via Encore will suddenly stop and whatever is showing live on Freeview starts playing. There is no way of getting back to the point reached before the stop either.

  • formerhero_ former hero ~ (@formerhero_) reported

    i never had sky TV or any of the channels i could listen to rock music thru other than once a week thru a really shady freeview channel and a huge part of my music taste came thru that, and blink were on that

  • CraigMason Craig Mason (@CraigMason) reported

    I love all the drama from people complaining about the emergency alerts... "I DIDN'T CONSENT!". It's a broadcast. The gvt doesn't have access to your phone via emergency alerts. It's as intrusive as the BBC Freeview signal. Keep the alerts on. They could save your life.

  • IANdrewTheGiant IANdrew Dice Clay (@IANdrewTheGiant) reported

    I hear so many people wanting a blue tick. I had one in 2002, it wasnt fun. Blue tick is of course a prolonged twitch you get after finishing yourself during the 10 minute freeview in a computer seat. Never going back there again.

  • FreddySky Freddy C. 🌈 🇮🇹🇪🇸🇵🇹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇩🇰🇫🇷 (@FreddySky) reported

    @jpxan71 @MasterChefUK Food network, on Sky it’s on 140, on freeview is channel 43.

  • sheriffofknokem TrikiRefusenik (@sheriffofknokem) reported

    @EE @ThreeUK Why do you tolerate @JeremyVineOn5 bad-mouthing mobile phones ? He says using a mobile is '' like talking into a tin can '' every day .. He should be having a go at the dire reception on Freeview TV .

  • electrichoover Electrifed Hoover (@electrichoover) reported

    @orelduderino @Danlassman Is your TV remote broken? at least 200+ channels to choose from on Freeview (900+ if your lucky)

  • GedCamera ged (@GedCamera) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Well done Sky When your box breaks down Freeview is not available Is it true that most people use "dodgy" boxes only I cannot understand why?

  • SarahGrimshaw_x Sarah Grimshaw (@SarahGrimshaw_x) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Our JVC smart TV will only let us change channels if we go onto the Freeview Play Guide, it won’t change if we just type in the number using the remote (remote works for everything else. Any help please? We’ve also got an issue with bbc iPlayer not working.
