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

  • 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.

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    @Forces_TV hi guys having a few problems with your freeview picture in London it freezes or breaks up had it since Friday

  • LILBUBBLE1 Bu88ble (@LILBUBBLE1) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

  • niklasRen Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported from Camberwell, England

    My broadband has gone down, so stuck watching QVC on Freeview.

  • LukhmanM 🇪🇺 M Lukhman 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 🇬🇧 🇮🇳 #RejoinEU (@LukhmanM) reported

    @likesretirement @toryboypierce @BBC For 350 days of the year Freeview is a sci-fi free zone and so making 50p per day poor value for money and not something I'd want to do! Those who like it pay for it fully

  • dianne2177 diane49 (@dianne2177) reported

    @EricLDaugh yes, we have the same issue in the UK, it called freeview that includess BBC, ITV, C4

  • terence58987231 terence mason (@terence58987231) reported

    the b b c have a bloody nerve putting up the t v licence next year to 180 pounds, all they do ,is repeats and more repeats and freeview is absolute crap ,the b b c pay themselves too much, i could read the news for a lot less the 450,000 a year.,its time to stop the hyke up.

  • HorribleGrandma Dave Stott (@HorribleGrandma) reported

    @CountMoriarty @anon_opin A massive problem is also the decision to put BBC Three online-only. It was a hotbed of innovatio, and they took it away from young adults with a freeview box.

  • mummymcmumface2 kee (@mummymcmumface2) reported

    @msapsfordmusic What I don’t like is that you record a movie that’s on regular tv then you go to watch it a few days later & it sky store only plus there’s loads of Freeview that’s on sky q but not on glass. We’ve only had problems with the remote tbh I know others have had glitches on screen

  • Jim_W_YkS IDIOSYNCRASY (@Jim_W_YkS) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Since Sunday I've not been able to get these channels - 1,2,9,12,25,27,34,39,51,56. In this day and age I find it totally unacceptable that its still possible to get a bad signal for 1 day, never mind 3 days +. I can't afford cable or satellite tv, freeview is all I've got

  • pjb220163 Mickey mouse (@pjb220163) reported

    Freeview 231 BBC news is reporting multiple stabbing on train in Cambridgeshire. I get that it's breaking news but is it absolutely necessary to bang on repeating the same **** over and over again for more than half an hour.

  • LDHMarketing LDH Marketing (@LDHMarketing) reported

    @ofcom @bbc @10DowningStreet If Freeview is switched off in favour of Freely (which is good in some contexts) on a day like today when there is a major outage you could be at home with no broadband, now no landline AND no TV. So no idea what is going on. Is that sensible? No.
