  • StuN_UK StuN UK (@StuN_UK) reported from Sheffield, England

    @bowlestrek Get your facts straight. Johnson is not in favour of ditching the license fee, as he knows it’s a massive vote loser. Plus they’ve now realised, they can’t go to subscription fee system, as the freeview boxes that the majority of UK households use, don’t support it.

  • JasonDragon1975 Jason Ratcliffe (@JasonDragon1975) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @Alexand85266011 @femme_uk @GBNEWS Freeview isn't very reliable for me either. I'm only 10 miles [as the crow flies] from the South Yorkshire Transmitter, yet I can only receive 6 of the 15 HD channels available. BBC1, BBC2, ITV1, Channel 4, Channel 5 and CBBC. The signal quality/strength is on average 80%.

    @LuckyCedarlane @BBCAMERICA @ITV @itv2 @Channel4 @channel5_tv C5 is awful. All this is freeview too!

    Oh I just lost signal then #freeview #emmerdale #emleymoor

  • dunstablian John (@dunstablian) reported

    What the hell is happening to Freeview TV ? No signal at all since yesterday afternoon, the latest in a long long line of NO SIGNAL using this provider. Avoid at all costs bloody useless.....

  • froddd Fred (@froddd) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice what’s the deal with @LGUK TVs not getting FreeView Play? One of their customer reps mentioned licensing issues, others say your developers are working on finishing apps for new TVs (odd, given those apps worked perfectly fine on same WebOS Last year). What gives?

  • TheDewsb Nicola Dewsbury (@TheDewsb) reported

    Freeview is total ****. It keeps going off in my room

  • SClubBethan SClubBethan (@SClubBethan) reported

    Watching the news, we now only have Freeview for real telly. When we had Virgin Media we got Points West. Delighted that we get Midlands today with @nickowentv. We don’t live in the midlands any more but never mind.

  • HadenScript HadenScript (@HadenScript) reported

    @RealDeniseWelch @itvcorrie What a nice photo, can't tell though who any of them are as I've never watched it. I think I gave up Freeview about 10 years ago now. Times have changed, most of my viewing comes from independent journalists channels on BITCHUTE!!!

  • MarkkCampion Mark Campion (@MarkkCampion) reported

    @ForeverJACK @virginmedia Vodafone's 80GB service. It's been ok to be fair to them. For TV I use smart TVs connected to internet and freeview.

  • froddd Fred (@froddd) reported

    @richhiggins Apparently other brands have also had their issues. Seems mad. Maybe FreeView Play being greedy?!

  • TeuchterLoon Loon -Team Yui- 💀🌸🦊🍅 (@TeuchterLoon) reported

    @freesat_tv Well, I guess I'm kissing goodbye to Satellite TV as the channels I was able to watch yesterday are no longer available. It just tells me I have no signal and scanning results in nothing.. Back to Freeview and catch-up I go.

  • bob_basement BasementBob@TheBasement (@bob_basement) reported

    @DDunshaggin @Iromg Wish I could get my mum to tune in, however my plank of a father would only keep turning up the BBC or the other rubbish he watches on the Freeview idiot lantern to drown it out. He's like a junkie now for his fix of daily misinformation since March.
