    You don’t realise how awful freeview is until your waiting for the sky man to come to your house 🥴

  • DamienAshton Damien Ashton-Wellman (@DamienAshton) reported from Birmingham, England

    Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

  • rozzietheaussie rozzietheaussie (@rozzietheaussie) reported from Royal Leamington Spa, England

    Dear @Channel4 please can you add live streaming to your 4OD service. My Freeview signal is shocking and I'm missing Bake off and this is very distressing

  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

    @LewisHamilton @SilverstoneExp That may be the case Lewis. If you really want to inspire the next generation. F1 needs to be on Freeview. It willl never happen though.

  • ellrbrown Elliott Brown (@ellrbrown) reported from Birmingham, England

    @mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

    @Traceyspacey1 @B3Z_Trojan Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview reception. Can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number and we will look into this for you? Thanks, Dylan

  • J8mes_b JB (@J8mes_b) reported

    Champions League final not being on Freeview is a very poor show. I know it's available to stream for free but some kids don't have internet access. The biggest game of club football should always be on television

  • HealyMarr Marr Healy (@HealyMarr) reported

    I can't understand why itv4hd isn't available on freeview. Watching the tennis is awful.

  • chey_cobb CyberSec Chey (@chey_cobb) reported

    @VickerySec Here we have a pretty decent digital antennae service called Freeview. We're required to pay an annual fee for a TV license but, if you don't pay, you can still use your TV. Cost varies, but it ranges from £0-£150. They do use scanning equipment to detect unregistered TVs.

  • AndrewCLeach Andrew C Leach (@AndrewCLeach) reported

    @afneil Will you have subtitles? I watched the trailer on Freeview. No subtitles, and the signal didn't cater for them ("Feature not available with current signal"). Disappointed.

  • Philipbutcher1 Philip butcher (@Philipbutcher1) reported from Reading, England

    @GBNEWS Is anybody else having signal issues on Freeview channel 236? The signal is weaker than all the other news channels.

    @gregorybelton @BiscuitHalf @Reachingbroom The BBC licence fee supports the Freeview platform - no BBC and Channel 4 (the commercial side of public service broadcasting) - no Freeview. :There's no such thing as a free lunch'.

  • Leemackie mucker (@Leemackie) reported from Moulton, England

    Help please Freeview tv. I have accidentally deleted BBC1 from the listing on my TV and I have know idea how to re add it. Techwood tv

    Anyone else having trouble with freeview?

  • itspetersanford LegendPeterSanford (@itspetersanford) reported

    @tomhfh I have rescanned my freeview box and labelled GBNEWS as ******** TOM. Just to ensure I never watch the Channel until Tom has got a gig more in line with his skill set. The Beano? Viz?
