    @traceyfromrasen @Kavismate @SkySportsRacing @RacingTV My Freeview signal can be hopeless at best even connected to Wi-fi but the HDMI/laptop combo works well when the cat isn’t jumping on it !

    @B260Eb @AnnSkelly3 Cool , An elderly neighbor had same issue when she bought a TV with Freeview Inc , They installed it with Ariel to the TV not her Freeview box and she sat without TV for weeks thinking it was broken . Tbh they should've set this up for her when installing 👍

    @addicted2newz Their YT channel is the only way I can watch because the freeview quality is so poor. In HD on YT 👌🏻

  • pigfarmery MrShifter (@pigfarmery) reported

    Our accommodation has only got #Freeview. I’m beginning to have genuine sympathy for poor people.

  • Lisa_Evenden Lisa Evenden (@Lisa_Evenden) reported

    @lauralaurab8 Some might not want to pay for it, but I know some people who cannot watch as they still only have freeview, or don't have a PC, tablet, mobile or cannot get 3g/broadband signal to be able to watch. I'm in a rural spot and our broadband speed is awful, Discovery+ kept buffering

  • steeleyp_ PS (@steeleyp_) reported

    @MisterQuintus @scottygb @SkyUK Why would they brand a free-to-air channel that would show non-premium programming? There's a good reason Pick isn't Sky-branded... because it's got nothing worth watching. They're hardly going to tarnish the brand by making Sky One a garbage Freeview brand

  • gazzaeuro Gary Spence (@gazzaeuro) reported

    @TBNUKtv Aww @TBNUKtv! I do think if you had a shop on the website selling cups and t-shirts e.t.c. you could raise a lot of funds to help stay broadcasting on Freeview.

  • roryobryan Rory O'Bryan (@roryobryan) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @FreeviewTV It's a usability issue with the Freeview Play software. The program he wants to watch is also available via one of the builtin apps. But there is no choice not to open the app and just watch the show live, so all he gets is a registration screen he can’t understand.

    @GBNEWS If the BBC is such an excellent broadcaster! Why doesn't it create a paywall & create its own wealth? It is wrong that people who pay for sky, virgin or never watch BBC on freeview, have to pay for a license to support a bloated organisation they don't use.

  • Wood1760Steve J Steed (@Wood1760Steve) reported

    @FreeviewTV hi Freeview Thunderstorm yesterday, electric went off After coming back on I'd list most of the channels I have i remaining I've tried to auto tune and keep getting same 8 channels How can it be fixed, your help line is not too good, it cuts out?

  • SueWhitaker11 Sue Whitaker (@SueWhitaker11) reported

    @lenatrobins @Ursie27608090 Thanks ***, but it's not a retune issue. My Humax box does those automatically. 6% of the UK doesn't get GBNEWS on Freeview, & Buxton is amongst them 😬.
