  • JonnyRoLi JR (@JonnyRoLi) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

    If we're in lock down for another 3 weeks, I really feel the #sonyChristmasChannel should be put back on #freeview...Will keep people in the house ( okay, it'll easily keep me in the house🎅🤶🌲

    I'm getting twitchy already... neighbours have scaffolding all around their house and its totally taken down our #Sky signal. No TV. For at least four weeks. Even Freeview won't work. No Corrie. No Judge Judy. Nothing. #bereft #tvaddicted

    @MartinSLewis Don’t have any streaming services. I can watch a couple of hundred channels of utter crap on freeview/freesat or free online, or pay stupid money to watch several thousand channels of even more utter crap.

    Anyone else no tv signal #BBCBreakfast #gmb @itv @bbc #freeview 🤔

  • quidditys_shore Stuart Galloway (@quidditys_shore) reported

    @MartinSLewis We only started a paid service with disney+ 2 years ago. Last year we shared with my brother & sister (not allowed but not stopped yet!) so works out £91 per household. But me & my wife hardly watch anything so we'll be dropping out. Freeview is all we really watch & have a pvr

  • tractor_girl99 🚜💙Anna💙🚜 #OFBF (@tractor_girl99) reported

    @itsnickelflysk3 @virginmedia Only problems we seem to have with Virgin is when lightning hits the signal box outside a causes a big outage Thankfully we still have Freeview otherwise will be doomed

    Why are all my BBC Freeview channels all breaking up ? No problems on GBnews TalkTV Channels 4,5 just BBC

  • FramptonRoz Roz Frampton (@FramptonRoz) reported

    @BBC No, because we can't see anything! There have been so many Freeview outages, again today. We've had days & days of no service. Can't get terrestrial or other channels. The old TVs were far better in terms of reliability. Now, planes affect service, weather affects service, etc.

  • Mathe_Musician MatheMusician (@Mathe_Musician) reported

    @SorrelMayWood We take up the offer of 30 days free from time to time. Nice while it lasts, but as we usually joke that the Amazon order will arrive at least 3 days before it says it will, it never seems worth paying. (We wouldn't use the other features - way too much to watch on freeview.)

  • SkyHelpTeam Sky Help Team (@SkyHelpTeam) reported

    @CraziCatLady Thanks, Emma. The Freeview service cannot be watched through a Sky + box. If you have anymore questions then please let me know. Liam
