  • 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%.

    @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.

  • Hamishmczzz Margot (Maddie & Hamish, dogs, sadly 🌈) 🇬🇧 (@Hamishmczzz) reported

    @MartinSLewis @itvMLshow Could you help long standing customers get better treated? I've stayed with my broadband cable service since 1997 and am now paying £94 per month at 80 to virginmedia. I don't want to change as I can't get Freeview here and they are still better than the opposition for repairs.

  • tomgliv_tom Tom Gould (@tomgliv_tom) reported

    @SmoothDsNuts @NoContextBrits Benny Hill is on every night on That's TV (Channel 65 on Freeview). Watched a few episodes, I had forgotten how totally awful it was, definitely the lowest of low comedy!

  • charfieldblue Ian Wilson 🥃 (@charfieldblue) reported

    Recommendations for a new TV series to binge on please. Options are Apple TV, Netflix, Freeview, Disney & Prime. Favourite genres Crime / Drama / Thrillers. Best things seen recently, Slow Horses, Severance, Bad Sisters. Thanks 👍🏻

  • hispanista Hispanista (@hispanista) reported

    @thefish64 @psychpolis Never used them in the U.K. Freeview was enough + NowTV, Netflix and Prime. My fibre broadband was BT.

  • Topaz_Jules Julie (@Topaz_Jules) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice we seem to have lost our freeview HD channels on all our TVs in PL7, is this a known issue?

  • UKTVPlayHelp UKTV Play Help (@UKTVPlayHelp) reported

    @FO2D_ All right, can you come back to us if you still see the issue tomorrow after lunch? It looks like freeview servers (where you get the ads from) did have some issue today so it could explain why you got few issues.

  • DougMcfarlane59 Douglas Mcfarlane (@DougMcfarlane59) reported

    @WilliamNB @tvlicensing We had loads of them letters when we lost our regional TV transmitter and every single person with just Freeview service cancelled their direct debits. It was over a million households for Teesside and little further away. They then targeted OAP's with letters 1/2

  • dmodeboy Stevie 🏳️‍🌈 (@dmodeboy) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi. I'm in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk and my freeview is pretty unwatchable. I keep retuning but it makes no difference. Earlier I had no ITV which is ridiculous. Can you please help?

  • philirelandlfc Philireland (@philirelandlfc) reported

    @BoltDogg @LGUK @LGUKCare Honestly all tvs r made in the same factory bar from a few, Sony make there own tvs so they make them right, friend got a LG and we put the freeview on and it was terrible quality TV, I got myself a Sony for a few pound more and in so glad I did, best TV I have ever owned.

  • Hairyloon Grumpy Old Man (@Hairyloon) reported

    @TheRealJamieKay May I suggest that Harry watch Lucifer on Netflix (now also available on Freeview). It's fiction, but it makes the solid point that the devil.never made any of us do anything...
