    @MyHydeHome @SCCIAlphatrack Not even sure how that's possible there's no record anyways over the weekend we lost signal for the communal aerial it has become very weak very pixelated can pick up the Freeview HD channels

  • Davidp1103 David-19 (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @TalkTalk It would be nice if you could reduce or remove a £40 charge for an engineer who called but made no inspection of equipment, explained that Freeview channels had been altered; a fact that your customer services were not aware of, but should have known.

  • LexFuturus LexFuturus (@LexFuturus) reported from Longfield, England

    Terrible streaming quality via YouTube! @btsport should have made it freeview #UCLfinal

  • XtopherCalvert Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • Davidp1103 Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Snodland, England

    Continually frustrated by @TalkTalk and its inconsistent service and performance. Have today purchased a freeview recorder to replace their box and will be actively looking for new broadband provider.

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    Time for the BBC to close down the BBCNews channel as they always seem to put it on BBC1 at same time WHY as BBCNews is available on sky freesat and freeview you dont need it on BBC1

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • Davidp1103 Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @Complyorcry @Back_Two_Mee To @TalkTalk they are okay but the broadband is not a good as VM but it's okay; it cut the monthly bill in half. I have since dropped their tv service and bought a freeview recorder. Monthly bill for broadband/phone £38

  • flowergirl_lon Sam (Flower Girl) Jennings (@flowergirl_lon) reported from Croydon, England

    @GeorgeBollands @gemoore83 @BBCSport Ok… I have Now tv so don’t think I can get that but I’ll have a look. My regular freeview is crap as I don’t have an aerial, only have internet streamed TV.

  • AStrangerJ A.j. Stranger #UTAG (@AStrangerJ) reported from Bromley, England

    On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

  • PurpleDon1973 MadameCholet (@PurpleDon1973) reported from Ilford, England

    Some days I really wish I'd kept all those calls to @JimDavisOnAir on my freeview box. I've been sent way back in time with a USB memory stick, a few years back with some calls. Damn, I really miss those days with the song choice and #JimDavisLive And it was just brilliant radio

  • PhilipMichaelC2 Philip Michael Chapman (@PhilipMichaelC2) reported from Croydon, England

    @SamsungUK Continued so I checked all hdmi leads it wasn't that even took my Samsung TV back to Freeview channels and still the volume would go down know next door have a daughter who is deaf is it possible for her equipment to jam or effect my family TV when we watching it?

  • CaelKatzi Katzi 🏳️‍🌈🦄 (@CaelKatzi) reported

    @arjoll @paulbrislen Too much distance and crap in the way, LoS is really bad due to terrain and trees. Can't even get Freeview HD - have to use the crap satellite version lol. Literally in my IT nightmare hellscape geographically. Gaming on ADSL2+ is painful, gaming + streaming = nogo.

  • davewri96683495 dave wright (@davewri96683495) reported

    @emmerdale @ITV @WeAreSTV too far fetched now Emmerdale going down fast Been watching re runs on freeview [1998] was pretty dam good in those days

  • mashcore4mums fooly (@mashcore4mums) reported

    @xandypty AWS Elemental. We had a rackmount box at uni that was dedicated to sending a feed to AWS. We'd do a Degree Show broadcast which would go out on a web page hosted on AWS as well as Freeview DVB-T on a signal that only went as far as the Greenwich peninsula.

  • Scoutdwriter Scout Dawson (@Scoutdwriter) reported

    @TimHoelscherX They likely mean cable or network TV, which when you think about it, is accurate. I don't watch TV (I don't have Freeview set up, nor do I have Sky, TiVO or Virgin Cable etc) but I do have Netflix/Prime, which are websites/apps.

  • bradley_steve Steve Bradley (@bradley_steve) reported

    @james__love @Dr_Eoin_Malcolm @Aontaithe2021 They wouldn't be able to geoblock the Freeview signal in Derry though. It's too near the border/Republic for that. It's easy to block on Sky, because they know exactly which jurisdiction cards are registered in.

  • JohnnyDownes ❌Johnny Downes #FJB GETTR same handle (@JohnnyDownes) reported

    The Criminal (1960. Director: Joseph Losey. Stars Stanley Baker, Sam Wanamaker, Patrick Magee). Showing tonight on #TPTV Freeview Channel 81. Great film. Look out for Colour Sgt Bourne as a bad guy.

  • lynda_lyndatw Lynda Rolington (@lynda_lyndatw) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice The Freeview picture signal cuts out frequently every day for several seconds. The signal in this area is terrible. Sometimes it is almost impossible to watch a freeview program because of continual picture losses. My postcode is TN10 4NE and house number is 48

  • angelneptustar angie (@angelneptustar) reported

    @Gina09768111 In the UK, Euronews is available, together with a number of other international news channels, via online video subscription service NewsPlayer+ and alongside Africanews on Freeview channel 271 via the Channelbox free streaming service. Try this!!! xxx
