  • Oliver_Wok wok (@Oliver_Wok) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @edgarwright @broccantyzack @itv2 Would make for a brilliant friday/saturday/sunday triple header. Would love to break it down into how many times a year they appear on freeview TV

  • JonnyRoLi JR (@JonnyRoLi) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

    @lenatrobins @Ursie27608090 Thanks ***, but it's not a retune issue. My Humax box does those automatically. 6% of the UK doesn't get GBNEWS on Freeview, & Buxton is amongst them 😬.

    @FreeviewAdvice what is going on with freeview all signals are down in #Northampton

  • paulofthepool Paulofthepool (@paulofthepool) reported

    @DeliaNGoG That is really low signal strength. Is this via an aerial or digitally? If an aerial looks like it's out of whack direction-wise. Had a storm? If using Freeview you probably will lose a lot if not got decent signal strength and only picking up from nearest transmitter.

    @AnnSkelly3 I've been with Talktalk for years, never had a problem. Only thing with Virgin is you don't get your freeview channels on your TV. Woman I work for got changed over to them and now can't get the channels she watches

  • gazzaeuro Gary Spence (@gazzaeuro) reported

    @TBNUKtv Aww @TBNUKtv! I do think if you had a shop on the website selling cups and t-shirts e.t.c. you could raise a lot of funds to help stay broadcasting on Freeview.

  • steeleyp_ PS (@steeleyp_) reported

    @MisterQuintus @scottygb @SkyUK Why would they brand a free-to-air channel that would show non-premium programming? There's a good reason Pick isn't Sky-branded... because it's got nothing worth watching. They're hardly going to tarnish the brand by making Sky One a garbage Freeview brand

    Wow! This thunderstorm is still doing it’s rounds. It’s even knocked our tv arial and satellite out. No signal on Freeview or Freesat. Thankfully I have a tv stick and an internet connection still.

    @B260Eb @AnnSkelly3 Cool , An elderly neighbor had same issue when she bought a TV with Freeview Inc , They installed it with Ariel to the TV not her Freeview box and she sat without TV for weeks thinking it was broken . Tbh they should've set this up for her when installing 👍

  • jamgyal Dan (@jamgyal) reported

    @liisa_agren @bbcproms @BBC It’s closed down on Freeview. I’ve got the option to cast it from the phone instead.)

  • parazoner You're Living In Thought So (@parazoner) reported

    @BaneNook The 10 minute freeview at 12am every night channel 546. Never did me any harm!
