    @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.

    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…

  • geovilla77 georgie green (@geovilla77) reported from Bromsgrove, England

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

  • 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.

    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.

    @TiceRichard @TalkTV GB NEWS on freeview 236 and this on 237! After a few pints mistake could be made switching between the two. Viewers will not know difference though with bad continuity, shouting guests and online guests going off line nothing to do with alcohol!

  • WayneDLawrence1 Wayne Lawrence (@WayneDLawrence1) reported

    I've just retuned my Freeview. I have 112 channels. That'll be @TalkingPicsTV and 111 crap ones then.

  • charltondoris Angela 🇺🇦 (@charltondoris) reported

    @TroubleDads @virginmedia Completely agree, i felt it was so unfair. What made it worse was that about 4mth after moving in, VM was supplied to the area! They would have known this too. I take great delight in putting as many off of VM as i can, awful company. Happily now have giffgaff and freeview 👍

  • julesw1lko Jules (@julesw1lko) reported

    My exciting Saturday night life… Trying to hunt down “Dis/Informed” … it came out on TV when I was over in Ireland with family. @PBSAmerica is on Freeview apparently. But also an add on channel to Amazon Tv. Subscribe and pay my £3.50 But it’s not there on demand? Grrr / wtf.

  • Sniffer1967 AFC1967 (@Sniffer1967) reported

    @bbcmtd So Central News has been in HD on ITV for over two years - yet Midlands Today can’t be arsed to do the same! WHY? I watch everything in HD on Freeview and have to switch to crap SD to watch my local news!! WHAT IS GOING ON? Why should I pay the licence fee? ANSWERS PLS!

  • allen_rob Rob Allen (@allen_rob) reported

    @SlapstickSally Bt is a load of ****. I'm using freeview now!

  • Haggis91569570 Northern Haggis🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Haggis91569570) reported

    @FreeviewTV Why is the freeview signal reception so terrible in north east Scotland and can we get a discount on the license fee for having to put up with your abysmal service.

  • Gracie1982 Laura (@Gracie1982) reported

    Our Sky box is dead. We’ve lost everything we had recorded or planned. We now have very slow freeview. It’s like we’re cave people - until Tuesday when our replacement arrives.

  • sodslawyer sod's lawyer (@sodslawyer) reported

    @Thebubblegunman @Neverfadingwood I haven't a clue, I've never used Freeview.

  • HollyChristma11 Holly Christmas (@HollyChristma11) reported

    Why is TV so utterly ****? Freeview? Supposed to be 700 Channels. And 695 of them are Totally ******* Unwatchable! The other 5 consist of Repeats or Adverts! And they want you to pay £156 Quid for a TV License? NOT A CHANCE!
