    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…

  • 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.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    There have been multiple reports of issues with the Freeview multiplex carrying ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 in standard definition. Different areas have been affected in different ways, but some services have been garbled/distorted,

  • FrequencyFormat Frequency Formation (@FrequencyFormat) reported

    Dear ITV Put some money in your meter, your channels have gone done down on Freeview.

  • steeleyp_ PS (@steeleyp_) reported

    @LucyTurner_x @skytv Yes, £10 per month no matter how many pucks you have. The £50 per box charge is steep though. If broadband goes down, you can’t access any content as it doesn’t have a hard drive so you won’t even have recordings to watch. Only way around that is to have an aerial for Freeview

  • mvpnrs MVPNRS (Alex belfield he's a liar!) (@mvpnrs) reported

    The Freeview ITV channels they are down! ITV ❌ ITV+1 ❌ ITV HD ✅ ITV2 ❌ ITV + 1 ✅ ITV3 ❌ ITV4 ❌ ITVBe ✅ #Freeview

  • runnerbrite Max Richens 💙 (@runnerbrite) reported

    @charlesarthur @BBCMoreOrLess Only Freeview. Freesat ones are a bit more expensive as generally on larger Sony boxes if I stayed Sony.. Though I also have a Panasonic freesat TV which works ok. But an issue is that the current one works so I am reluctant to add it to the heap of discarded electronics.

  • Mr_0151 ☃️ (@Mr_0151) reported

    We had tv wallahi I’m talking freeview we never had cable as they say...

  • TheDoctor2058 Anthony 🏳️‍🌈🎵 (@TheDoctor2058) reported

    so according to the freeview website a majority of people will get the signal back on wednesday. Whether or not that includes yours truly is a matter of time.

  • IronMask75 IronMask75 (@IronMask75) reported

    @FreeviewAU Can you please stop the #Freeview info banner from popping up by itself every 5 minutes on my Sony Bravia X95G? Problem started this week after an update and it's starting to annoy me.

  • Stuarsenal75 Rusty Gallante (@Stuarsenal75) reported

    @itv Freeview channels not working in RG21?

  • alljusthuman alljusthuman #FBPE #leavealighton 🇪🇺🇵🇸 (@alljusthuman) reported

    @My5_tv There are good programmes on Ch 5 but my5 is not user friendly. A Search option for recent progs would help and an alphabet to help navigate browse. And why is My5 not showing current series of Highland Vet & Casualty24/7? (I watch on Freeview/smartTV).
