  • 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?

    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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • sospainter 🅿🅰🆄🅻 🅲🅾🅻🅻🅸🅴🆁 (@sospainter) reported from Whyteleafe, England

    @IanSlaterPhoto1 @VixThatRuns I have a sizeable Samsung. Ditched Virgin Media, the plan was to have Freeview. The tv doesn’t support Freeview!

  • shoxtl2 Carl (@shoxtl2) reported from Croydon, England

    @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

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

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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • StevenGothard Steven Gothard (@StevenGothard) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @vtvseries I can't get v on forces tv I have Freeview can you help me please?.V

  • josierustle josie 💛🤍💜🖤 (@josierustle) reported

    ahhhhhhhg this part of hotel-staying where crap 00s true crime documentaries on the freeview is all there is to entertain

  • Doctor_of_Music Mike Coe (@Doctor_of_Music) reported

    Living in a remote location, we only have a 'public service' Freeview transmitter, with restricted channels. Dense woodland to the east means no satellite TV reception, & there is no 'cable'. Therefore I have discovered with some pleasure that I will be unable to receive @GBNews

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @UKtodayUK Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview channels. So we can look into this further for you can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number. Thanks, Dylan.

  • kennyhegney Kenny, so called, Hegney (@kennyhegney) reported

    Because my phone is a Universal Credit special I've never downloaded BBC Sounds. Recently( in an attempt to get work) I went without food so I could get Internet plumbed in. Yesterday I found Sounds on Freeview Player so listened to final episode of #BatterseaPoltergeist

  • Michael80789776 Michael CLARK (@Michael80789776) reported

    @ShiregreenOwl @teresadg0 The online services are definitely a big contributor, I agree. But a dedicated 24 hr news service on Freeview is far more accessible for many, and that will have an impact

  • Charles10545180 Charles West (@Charles10545180) reported

    We are all urged to support England in Euro 2020 , but I seem to remember that those of us that only had freeview T V were not allowed to watch our national team in the UEFA Nations League not so long ago, funny how things change.

  • DeadGirlZombie Charlotte Allen (@DeadGirlZombie) reported

    @virginmedia we contacted you yesterday to say our WiFi is down! You tell us you can’t get an engineer until Sat! It’s ridiculous! You owe us more then just money off our next bill! We have no tv as have no freeview and have to use our mobile data for that long is unacceptable!

  • iannock Ian Nock (@iannock) reported

    @matthewcarter7 Freeview Play 4K TVs ... they have good support. TiVo v6 did at WC but have not confirmed this time around. Still need to check my SkyQ, but Android TV devices almost universally don't...

  • cvrlh Cyrille Varnier - The Big Picture (@cvrlh) reported

    @RobintheBear @sixteennine If I may, Samsung DM75E's 450 nits seems a bit short for outdoor, should put it in a shaded area if possible. As for the Freeview signal it's standard HDMI1, HDMI2 and HDCP 1.4, it shouldn't cause any problem.
