    @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.

    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.

    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

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

    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?

  • Davidp1103
    Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @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

    @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

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

    @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

    @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

    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.

  • 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 😂

    @GeorgeyTheApe @BillyWi26569940 @BBCNews Well you could just not watch live tv. And thus don’t pay. Can pretty much get most Freeview channels on demand via their apps. Throw in a streaming service or two and you got yourself a pretty good TV set up

    Two things I’ve noticed today, Freeview and the local news are ******* depressing. Both completely ****.

  • AuntieSyzygy
    Auntie Syzygy (@AuntieSyzygy) reported

    @CRobertsonUK I only have freeview, and they have dozens of channels, all of the same and all of them crap or repeated crap. Never any decent films or a solid drama you can get stuck into. There seemed to be more choice and more good stuff back when we had just 3 or 4 channels.

    @empiresend @SteRuss60 Sadly, i only have Freeview as i can't afford Netflix but i feel so sad for The Royal Family at times that i am contemplating sending them my life savings, especially in light of the bad press they have received of late..

    @LeStripe Hi Alison, we’re sorry to hear that you’re struggling to find us on Freeview. We did recently move to channel 26. If you still can’t find us please get in touch with @FreeviewTV who should be able to help you further.

    Wondering how i'd put together a device that sits between a Freeview box and a TV, and refuses to play anything other than the test card signal at certain times of day, as a novelty gift for a nostalgic friend... especially when i don't have a TV

    @DavyStreams I have been dancing around getting it for a while but never bought it due to that. Its ****. Got stung with too many freeview boxes that worked for a couple of months.
