  • JensFallesen Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England

    @leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

  • maggieinlondon Maggie - wear a mask 💙🏳️‍🌈🌱 (@maggieinlondon) reported from Wandsworth, England

    With all this wall to wall coverage crap of a dead man by @skynews and @bbcnews Netflix and Freeview's viewing figures must be the highest they've ever been.

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

  • MartinC93414706 Martin (@MartinC93414706) reported from Lambeth, England

    @channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

  • JEFFREY03296741 JEFFREY PHILLIPS (@JEFFREY03296741) reported from Brentford, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

  • IanDavidRoss1 @thebadissuecollective (@IanDavidRoss1) reported from Lambeth, England

    Freeview tv is crap again tonight ,apart from french war drama on BBC2 - The Guardians(2017) I missed the first 30min ,so will watch from the start at first opportunity,Going to check Netflix.

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • omotforest david sinfield #pssc (@omotforest) reported from West Molesey, England

    To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • KennyandHattie Terry Williams (@KennyandHattie) reported

    @GBNEWS Just retuned. Doesn't show on @FreeviewTV in Copeland, Cumbria. TBH we generally have crap coverage from Freeview here..

  • bobk1701 Bob Koopman (@bobk1701) reported

    @dish I would like to see The News Pack as a Free channel preview. It never has been in Freeview before.

  • proogs Peter Scandrett (@proogs) reported

    @jimmygulp Good example of the issue: Last Friday eve, WILTY, BBC1, Freeview guide starts "Rob Brydon is back in the host’s chair for a brand new series". S13, ep1. Problem is that S14 has aired recently, and it's blatantly not a new series.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital Last time I contacted freeview about the issues, the lady suggested I buy a new scart lead, or my tvs the wrong type.

  • juneh49 June Hurst 🐈🦊🌷🌻🌾 (@juneh49) reported

    @GBNEWS That took awhile I never watch Freeview!

  • heathermcwhinn2 heathermcwhinnie (@heathermcwhinn2) reported

    Does anyone know how a smart tv works with freeview but without broadband? My broadband isn't up and running yet but cant even get a basic tv programme. Help?

  • StefanCtn Stefan C (@StefanCtn) reported

    @FreeviewAU Since Freeview updated to 1.04 our Hisense 65S8 TV no longer allows the default electronic program guide (EPG) button to work. @HisenseAus advised this is a known issue with Freeview to fix. Is there a timeline on getting this resolved?

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital After freeview sent harry hill round to sort out my reception issue, I'm not going into again, I spent best part of £250 on an aerial to try and get proper local reception which doesnt work.

  • denj0908 Nettie 🇬🇧 (@denj0908) reported

    @BermondseySE16 @AlStewartOBE @GBNEWS Try removing your aerial from your TV, returned without the aerial, then put aerial back in and retune again. See if that works. If not, go on freeview website for extra help.

  • Co1Mary Mary Cook (@Co1Mary) reported

    @TruthOls @Reuters CNN is not available on Freeview TV, I don't pay for a subscription service and I don't watch news online.
