    @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!

  • 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.

  • EmmaLovelace Emma Lovelace (@EmmaLovelace) reported

    Freeview is a bit crap at times, no BBC channels at the moment.

  • JulieSmith2001 Julie Smith (@JulieSmith2001) reported

    @iMultitudes Yes I can only get that channel through the Freeview box which I record on, can’t get it through the normal aerial as the signal is so bad here.

  • don_mac D Mac (@don_mac) reported

    @hairychesters Our only saving grace is that its on Freeview 785 or something - no ****** watches it all the Gammons have to wade through 5 channels of WW2 docs and Bargain hunt to get to it the temptation to never reach it is too high!

  • joonloons june lewins (@joonloons) reported

    @basestacking Check Freeview for the terrestrial channels in your area, and retune a couple of times to see if you get more stations. I use a Humax and smart tv so I can record TV programmes, but you should be able to just plug it into your tv. I find non-HD progs get a better signal.

  • gildy61 Random Jottings of Gildersleeve (@gildy61) reported

    @did_40 @lomelindi12 Can you both listen to the repeat of Health Check on the World Service at 1.30pm online via smart speaker, sounds, on DAB, Freeview? A very big feature on MS which seems to offer hope and it does seem reliable what they talk about it.

  • IanTats Ian Tats (@IanTats) reported

    @GBNEWS Sad story, but if he already owed £1400 the recent price rises aren't the cause of his problem. He also has a sky TV remote, perhaps switch to freeview as a start.....

  • Strawhat_Slime Tsuna_Dokkan (CEO of Tsuna) Reborn! Hiveleader (@Strawhat_Slime) reported

    @crimsonalt122 @Zappy_Is_Happy Trust me I know, I grew up with only freeview, no Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon, only CBeebies, CBBC, CITV and Tiny Pop

  • McCartneyHarvey Harvey 🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@McCartneyHarvey) reported

    Why isn’t the match on Freeview? **** you @SkySports, you really love to ruin sports. England matches should be free to watch #ENGCIV

  • 2_Wheeled_Wolf @2_Wheeled_Wolf 🇪🇺 (@2_Wheeled_Wolf) reported

    @SherlocksSpring don't watch that crap, haven't since Wright did it. New name, same old bigoted **** from #ScourgeOfTheTvChannels who is no longer on my Freeview box. @gnomeicide

  • BenJohn45874515 Ben Johnson (@BenJohn45874515) reported

    I'm so glad I have satellite. Just been watching a bit of Freeview and a plane flew over and I lost signal. It's a bit like some of these issues with DAB.... nothing is as strong as it should be. Now I'm Netflix and chill.
