    Sam (Flower Girl) Jennings (@flowergirl_lon) reported from Croydon, England

    @GeorgeBollands @gemoore83 @BBCSport Ok… I have Now tv so don’t think I can get that but I’ll have a look. My regular freeview is crap as I don’t have an aerial, only have internet streamed TV.

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

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

  • AStrangerJ
    A.j. Stranger #UTAG (@AStrangerJ) reported from Bromley, England

    On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

    Terrible streaming quality via YouTube! @btsport should have made it freeview #UCLfinal

    @bt_uk I got a problem it's not my fault and it's not BT issue I lost a lot of Freeview channels in my flat I went to no cancel and said you can have a dish because aerials are very bad in your area where you live we've had a lot of people coming to us about the same problem

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • summers_allan
    Allan Kempson (@summers_allan) reported from Romford, England

    @talkSPORT @Sjopinion10 That's a bad idea. Sky have rights to other sports too, so a netflix football service would be yet another thing to pay for if you like multiple sports. More football needs to be on freeview channels like BBC and ITV.

    @Complyorcry @Back_Two_Mee To @TalkTalk they are okay but the broadband is not a good as VM but it's okay; it cut the monthly bill in half. I have since dropped their tv service and bought a freeview recorder. Monthly bill for broadband/phone £38

  • Putneyman
    Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

    Time for the BBC to close down the BBCNews channel as they always seem to put it on BBC1 at same time WHY as BBCNews is available on sky freesat and freeview you dont need it on BBC1

    @TalkTalk It would be nice if you could reduce or remove a £40 charge for an engineer who called but made no inspection of equipment, explained that Freeview channels had been altered; a fact that your customer services were not aware of, but should have known.

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

    @channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

    @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

    John Cartwright (@JohnLoony) reported

    Watching “Super Cyclone” (2012) on Great Movies Action (Freeview 41). Ridiculously cheap budget, low quality CGI special effects, amateur actors reciting scripted lines, narrow angle close-up shots (to disguise cheap small sets), corny dialogue. It’s so bad that it’s almost funny

  • EdgyNathan

    @MattHaighPoetry It’***** Cwmbran too! Worst I had my side in llantrisant was my freeview box resetting

    Half decent movies they never seem to re-run on freeview & I don't know why not? The Game (Michael Douglas) - The Jackal (Bruce Willis) - A Perfect Murder (Douglas/Paltrow) - Sneakers (Redford) - Sea of Love(Pacino) - Absolute Power(Clint) - Casino - The Getaway...

    @SkySportsNews all the best Jeff not the show it was, the recent format is dull and sky removing it off freeview was a epic fail

  • m1chaelbarnes
    Michael B #FBPE (@m1chaelbarnes) reported

    @HammerGothic @BritBoxHelpUK P.S. Other episodes of Bergerac had it pretty bad, too. One ended with a scene of an armed siege of a house: on the Freeview channels, all real footage of this was removed and then replaced with still photographs. Censorship is bonkers.

  • JohnT1062
    John Turner (@JohnT1062) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice The freeview signal in my area is very poor today and has been for the last 24hrs. Is there aprobelm with the local transmitter? My Postcode NR31 9

  • JohnLoony
    John Cartwright (@JohnLoony) reported

    Watching #TheThing (1982) on the Horror channel (Freeview 68). No matter how many dozens of times I watch this movie, the stupid arrogant American scientists never seem to learn to just kill the dog in the first place. You would have thought they might have learnt by now.
