  • Robbo72uk Andy Roberts (@Robbo72uk) reported from Southport, England

    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

  • richard__webb Richard Webb (@richard__webb) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @GBNEWS i was so looking forward to it. But… on freeview the picture quality is really poor, sound is out of sync, and just feels like the sets are dark and badly lit. Took my focus away from listening to whats being projected. #GBNews

    @27476b54549e462 WATCH GB NEWS FREEVIEW 236. YOU WILL NEVER WATCH ANY OTHER NEWS CHANNEL. COVERS EVERYTHING THE OTHER ESTABLISHMENT CONTROLLED NEWS CHANNELS IGNORE ,BUT ARE PRIORITIES FOR THE PUBLIC.

    @JuliaLopezMP I was going to gripe about the iniquity of Jury service, where those who hate the idea are press ganged into it on pain of a £1000 fine, but on seeing your position.... Freeview has an expiry date, the 2038 Linux bug - specifying as UNSIGNED format would solve

    @BBCOneDrama as freeview premieres this christmas plus two or three expensive stand alone drama specials the world does not revolve around eastenders on six times call the midwife plus strictly blankety blank specials there no need to have such poor options on bbc or itv

  • Sketchbroom Siân :P (@Sketchbroom) reported

    Ok help how are people actually watching from the freeview app? I can’t play anything 😭

  • WestinNorth WestinNorth (@WestinNorth) reported

    Just started watching season 1 of #midnightdiner. How have I missed this Japanese series. Thanks @netflix Nice to see a such a human, funny and meaningful and creative show. Shows what absolute mindless drivel is forced down the public throats on standard freeview channels.

  • judith17554 judith WOKE 💙 (@judith17554) reported

    @WolfgangDikface No. I only have Freeview, so no option, but I don't think it's my cup of tea. I've not got much patience with fantasy or sci-fi type films/programmes. I have enough trouble with real life.

  • AlisonK91305178 Alison Kay (@AlisonK91305178) reported

    @bookyblonde @skytv @TalkingPicsTV Me neither, I've got an old sky box and that still gets tptv, definitely not upgrading, if anything goes wrong with my box, I shall be getting a freeview box instead, it's on there, been a customer for over 25 years, definitely can't do without tptv

  • seaghanMK Seaghán🥊🎭 (@seaghanMK) reported

    @a516digital @BBC Thanks done all this. As I have exactly the same issues with BBC FOUR HD on a freesat box (itv/bbc type) which runs off a different dish and on a different tv I really don’t think on this occasion it’s me or my equipment. SD fine. Freeview HD also fine. All other channels ok.

  • enajydoom Jane (@enajydoom) reported

    @jackiepatie @BertrandRustles I only have freeview and Netflix. No sky, no Disney, no Amazon. I’ve never seen the thing people are talking about.

  • HeleneFanUK David (@HeleneFanUK) reported

    takes a special sort of idiot to have no Freesat and no Freeview at the same time.
