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

  • 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…

  • xemilywalker emily (@xemilywalker) reported from Solihull, England

    The worrrrrst thing is, I’ve never had a telly in my room, never wanted one but that means tomorrow my mom and dad will be watching something awful in the back living room so ill be in the front living room with just freeview channels hahahaha **** off

  • 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

  • niksibley Nik Sibley (@niksibley) reported from Coventry, England

    Any ideas why MiL’s @HisenseUK @Roku TV sometimes puts itself onto the Freeview Play page whilst watching her Sky Q box? Even did it to me as I was navigation TV settings. Maybe TV or remote control issues? Hopefully unplugging/replugging will simply be enough to fix it…

  • 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.

  • old_bob52 Kevin Bull (@old_bob52) reported from Coventry, England

    @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.

  • Kewjonrichard wife seeker (@Kewjonrichard) reported

    @roger44 @FreeviewTV Wow 3 hours no signal in Swindon what do we get let me tell you. No apology. No explanation. No idea when freeview returns. Total silence. Maybe you need better staff. Better customer service and maybe a new brand, I suggest you try crap tv it's discriptiveand and true. 🤔

  • Kewjonrichard wife seeker (@Kewjonrichard) reported

    @ITSBIGTONE @FreeviewTV On other social media freeview is now being called crap tv. I'd have to say the service is disgusting and a note to advertiser using freeview platform. Waste of cash thousands are being denied a signal

  • NOWHelpTeam NOW Help Team (@NOWHelpTeam) reported

    @petew2804 Hi Peter, Whether you've got a Smart Box with Freeview or a Smart Box with 4K and Voice Search, you'll find the reset button on the bottom of your Box. For a factory reset, hold the button down for about 6 seconds.

  • Page_888 Matthew H (@Page_888) reported

    @BbcBring @russty_russ @journeymaxx You're welcome. The signal is quite random here on the Wirral. Some days S4C will come through very well on Freeview, other days not at all! After the initial switchover viewers across the North West were getting signals from Wales but not the North West!

  • auto_tech_pilot caroline mckenzie (@auto_tech_pilot) reported

    @daztraction @smokeybarkid Which is fine while Sky Arts is still on Freeview, a problem when that (inevitably) stops...

  • AdeBamber Ade Bamber (@AdeBamber) reported

    @ITV when will all itv go to hd for freeview or itv hub customers its 2021 time to scrap sd sure people wouldn't turn to streaming as much if you need netflix prime and disney don't seem to have a problem with it hd standard and uhd

  • agarethgates Not The Singer (@agarethgates) reported

    UK baseball fans let's face it @btsport clearly paid for a number of years' rights and are just seeing it out. They'll lose it like they did the NBA because they've blown all their money on Champions League and now the stupid WWE. Time to get a freeview box and MLBTV #OpeningDay

  • SomhairleMM Somhairle Buidhe (@SomhairleMM) reported

    @oshaymoishe1 @alwaysresister 2 1/2, now you remind me - still have an old analogue portable with Freeview set-top box in case of emergency! Also 3 laptops, though that's not half as swanky as it might sound ;-) 1 work, 1 old & this one an embarrassingly bad waste of money... :-/

  • Manufac51891710 Manufacturing Consent💙 (@Manufac51891710) reported

    @RT_com @MarkSleboda1 I was never able to get RT on Virgin Media in the UK (my Bb supplier). They wouldn't run it, so I refused to get a tv package. I opted for freeview instead. RT is the ONLY tv channel I watch.

  • pcttons fugitive era ☼ (@pcttons) reported

    sunshine on leith with george mackay in it is such a terrible musical movie but if it’s on the freeview tv guide i’ll watch it 😭
