    @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.

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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)

    @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

  • Zaack23 What good are notebooks? (@Zaack23) reported

    In related news, my god Freeview SD looks terrible, doesn't it? #HolidayThings

  • xdddreaded Aiden (@xdddreaded) reported

    When will we be getting camera/freeview options in @PlayApex? I wanna be able to get some cool aerial shots for some graphics n' ****, and rn timing your inspect animation with taking a delayed screenshot, not to mention at max settings, is just a pain in the anushole. I need!

  • JackMars85 BatZie 🇮🇪 (@JackMars85) reported

    @Nicky_Harrison_ @GBNEWS I know. Wonder if no support for my phone (s6). A real shame as every other news outlet app seems to work. Really wanted to watch GBNews online, especially as I refuse to pay BBC licence fee and thus have no Freeview/Sky/etc TV service.

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    Just a real shame that @BBCRedButton is only in SD on Freeview as the picture quality is very poor - poorer than usual IMO. They could easily have provided live coverage in HD by cutting the hours of @CBBC HD for the fortnight.

  • craigsteeps Craig Steeples (@craigsteeps) reported

    @LouLCC Eurosport used to be on freeview so maybe worth a check. The lad who passed was best friends with a girl 2 doors down from us and he was always in their garden, didn't know him, but when they passed they always said hello. Very sad as seems he was pushed and couldn't swim 😭😭

  • MartinG17508467 Martin Gale (@MartinG17508467) reported

    @FreeviewTV The thing is with S40 3NY postcode is that the poor reception channels are the ones I really want to watch ! Why oh Why that the true middle of England and has high populations Sheffield Manchester Nottingham Derby within 30 miles you cannot have high quality Freeview

  • SMILE42DAY Ⓜ️ICHELLE🪴🌳🌼💞Nature! (@SMILE42DAY) reported

    @pureangel40 @MSHopkins4 I've had problems with my Freeview box & my mobile here today. Both keep switching off for nothing! 😳

  • pwb413 Astro Boy (@pwb413) reported

    @DuncanUK45 Let's not forget the free crowd booster tickets! The 100 will only attract "locals" who are close to the preferred Test Match quality grounds. Remote County supporters have little interest in travelling to this watered down T20 series - like me watch on Sky or occasional Freeview

  • LeeMcilwaine leemcilwaine (@LeeMcilwaine) reported

    @DigitalJonathan @TobyWoody ***** sake, are you still blathering on? What's a PhD got to do with the issues you or your esteemed wife were having? For some people adjusting settings DID work. If your issues were related to Freeview then probably theirs weren't.

  • DigitalJonathan Jonathan Phillips (@DigitalJonathan) reported from Bristol, England

    @StarchyMarchy @LeeMcilwaine @BBCTwo No, poor freeview signal Tim. Same on every setting.
