    One bad thing about #Freeview TV is all the begging adverts. Ignore em all, ain't contributing towards inflated staff salaries. Plenty of local little charities.

  • loonylaura Laura Cox (@loonylaura) reported

    @Robynnnnnnnn @Lauzzadoll1 I'd seen her name in the listings on my Freeview box, but never her picture or anything. I like her, though.

  • hurricanehorton Michael Horton (@hurricanehorton) reported

    @AndyJ147 @q_bettor I think it's a different audience. BBC aim itself at a more casual fan, Eurosport at somebody who is going to be watching all year round. I do sometimes put the BBC coverage on when it's on though, just to support snooker on Freeview telly. And for a bit of variety.

  • peter_melvyn Peter Melvyn714 (@peter_melvyn) reported

    The Freeview TV Guide ; who are the pig ignorant uneducated slobs who write this garbage, too many spelling mistakes, too many grammatical errors and incredibly inaccurate facts, for example, 25,000 miles of trenches in WW1, there were less than 1,000 in fact, plus lots more

  • Gargarin BLTP (@Gargarin) reported

    The show biz news in place of actual news on Freeview channels is a nonsense, can't believe regulators really think it meets anyone's public service quota

  • retrofan1980 Mark Boreham (@retrofan1980) reported

    Considering ditching Freeview and moving to Freesat. I live in an area where we only get about 70% of channels whilst 20 miles away I'd get the full service. Also at times the Freeview signal is getting bad.

  • MissACS1984 ☆ Amanda 🐼 (@MissACS1984) reported

    @Discovery Don't know if you can help but i'm in the UK & all of a sudden cannot get any of your channels on freeview. Quest, Food Network etc. It just says channel no longer exists. Tried updating channels, scanning for channels etc to no avail. Can you advise?

  • JamesHotham Agent H (@JamesHotham) reported

    @RTUKnews I'm probably slow here, but what happened to the news on Freeview? (RT international is on as ever) But RT UK would be on from 3pm - but, only realised, not seen it on in a while. 🤔

  • PhilBall1971 PhilB-1971 (@PhilBall1971) reported

    @CazGR81 I'm thinking the same I watch Freeview but even thats getting bad

  • arcapelian 𝘼𝙍𝘾𝘼𝙋𝙀𝙇𝙄𝘼𝙉  (@arcapelian) reported

  • thesampattison sam (@thesampattison) reported
