    The #5g nonsense is awful. People setting fire to masts serving critical communications is madness. The frequency used in 5g has been redeployed from tv / freeview but still considerably lower power. 5g’s only side effect is faster & lower latency mobile internet #5gconspiracy

    Hadn't realised rural Freeview was still so terrible compared to in metropolitan areas. I get 80 Freeview channels in Dudley nr Birmingham, Dad gets 21 in South Shropshire! And doesn't even get Sky News which I assumed was on Freeview everywhere.

    @PunchyPiks @TalkingPicsTV I agree - it is a wonderful service but you can get it on Freeview for nothing.

  • eldavldn Eli Davies (@eldavldn) reported

    People who have freeview in Belfast: is the signal universally terrible or is it just my particular aerial?

  • climate_is_ok Go Woke Go Broke (@climate_is_ok) reported

    @Bridgetpee You'll have Freeview tuner in a post 2016 tv. Plug in the satellite or terrestrial aerial and scan channels. Sometimes the Freeview settings need tweaking. Hit me up if you have problems

    Could @RadioTimes tell me how many times a day I'm expected to re-sign in on their website now after the update? Doesn't seem to matter how many times I set my preferences as Freeview NW, within an hour or so they've defaulted back to every channel London. GRRR

  • RyanMorrisonJer Ryan Morrison (@RyanMorrisonJer) reported

    I can't get a Freeview signal (no rooftop aerial, powered indoor aerials don't work) and can't put up a satellite dish. Not paying Virgin. So trying to find a purely digital solution. None are easy or come with a simple guide/planner.

    @Lauren1994_27 Good. It is not too bad, really. We always find something to watch. Unlike the Freeview TV.

    Freeview shite TV marking Easter with some pish about a great escape, war crap !!

  • Bella_Ciao_Free Bella Ciao (@Bella_Ciao_Free) reported

    @skytv @TalkTV Why is the picture and sound glitchy. The picture quality is great but it's just not playing correctly. Note... Rest of my channels are fine even CNN which in bad weather disappears 1st. Also freeview is working fine... Thank you.

    @HumaxUK Why are @BBCiPlayer programmes not loading and playing on Freeview?? Been down for a few days now…

    @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.
