  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • uptownclub Franky uptownclub (@uptownclub) reported from Harlow, England

    @Virgin how do I go about leaving Virgin because I'm paying roughly £63.50 a month for a phone that I never use only to ring you up when there's a problem.. most of my viewing is on Freeview now and I have Amazon HD fire stick and Netflix account

    @HughesOnAir Oh no Howard the end of your show was cut off (on freeview TV at least). Didn't get to hear how to support the show?

  • northern_grumpy GrumpyNorthernGeezer (@northern_grumpy) reported

    @BBCBreakfast Absolutely terrible picture quality from the BBC on its allegedly ‘ HD ‘ freeview channel this morning.

  • pifflevalve Jon 🎄 (@pifflevalve) reported from Warkleigh, England

    My dad: “I don’t think we’ve got that Tory news channel on the Freeview have we? I’ve never seen it” Me, to myself: “No, I delete it every time you ask me to do the channel rescan”

  • NigelRollings Nigel Rollings (@NigelRollings) reported

    @LesleyB58051421 It's been fine the last two days. This morning, when I switched it on at 10:27, it defaulted to Absolute Radio. I've given up and switched to Freeview for today but it's a dodgy signal!

  • wpoel William Poel (@wpoel) reported

    @karlypants1 @UKTVPlayHelp One problem is that the Freeview platform involves too many cooks but no chef that will take overall responsibility for sorting this type of problem. Maybe a campaign for refunding the TV licence fee would get some attention?

  • SebbieJ Seb (@SebbieJ) reported

    How is it in 2023 @BBCNews still can't show local news in HD on @FreeviewTV. What exactly are we paying for again? Every other paid TV service (netflix, prime, etc) is delivering in 4k and we're still getting most Freeview channels in 480p it's 1992.

  • Deviant_Fart Deviant_Fart (@Deviant_Fart) reported

    The hospital was so damn warm and all I had the energy to do was watch The Big Bang Theory on freeview tv and try to keep down the tiny amounts of grapes and crackers I could stomach.

  • smileamilewide Indefatigable (@smileamilewide) reported

    @petemorristwit Freesat has been rock solid transmission for approx 8 years that I’ve used it. Freeview was v poor reception in my area & would break up v frequently. Completely solved the issue. PVR with 500GB & twin tuner has proved v useful. Imho picture quality is better than Freeview too.

    @SODASam_ @virginmedia You wont miss them Sam. Honestly Virgin are the worst company. So many better ones out there. Its a gift! for landline and internet Zen are superb. Freeview works fine for us.

    @paulhunter62 I’d never heard of the channel until my sister told me - it’s a Freeview channel, apparently. As for the film, who knows! 🤷🏻
