  • Crewedaddy Richard Seamon (@Crewedaddy) reported from Crewe, England

    @james_blue_cat Can't afford any streaming service or the hardware upgrade to accommodate one. Freeview and iPlayer is enough. Didn't switch telly on Xmas day and Bob and Paul going fishing was my highlight.

  • m7leicauser Andy Barton (@m7leicauser) reported from Comberbach, England

    @FreeviewTV Thanks to Dan at Freeview, the aerial-out retune x2 seems to have cured the problem. 👍

  • JoyAnneGarner Joy Garner (@JoyAnneGarner) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Anyone else having issues with Freeview etc today? ST6 area ?

  • kirstxxiv kirstylouise (@kirstxxiv) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Imagine how much of a Christmas miracle it would be if BBC3 came back to freeview number 7. I can picture it now, Gavin & Stacey returns and BBC3 makes a comeback. 25/12/19 would go down in history.

  • minxsterev helen kirk (@minxsterev) reported from Crewe, England

    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

  • RockcliffeFiles Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Werrington, England

    Warning, stupid question incoming, does a Freeview tele just simply plug into an old skool aerial?? My mum wants a new TV but doesn’t have cable. I’m assuming so? I’ve had cable since the early 90s so haven’t had to faff on with aerials for 30 odd years !!!

    @PaulDel70889969 Hi Paul, Sorry to learn you have no Freeview reception. We are currently investigating the issue and speaking with all relevant parties to resolve the issue. Melissa

  • David__Riddell David (@David__Riddell) reported

    @BigBearF1 F me this is actually bloody brilliant. My Grandad has started to lose it. My mrs went round to fix it the other day & he'd pressed the wrong button so it was trying to find freeview. He then did the same again the following day so called out a tv engineer

  • zawenaeb ZAWENA B (@zawenaeb) reported

    I swear #skybroadband is down at least every other week... was working fine until now. Wanted to watch something on freeview play but my smart TV runs off WiFi and currently have none. Good luck to my older sister who works remotely/from home with no WiFi shew screwed.

  • FripMonster Cbo (@FripMonster) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice I'm am having problems with my Freeview box after changing TV. Can you help?

  • giantjossy giantjossy (@giantjossy) reported

    @TeessideLive Same reply from Melissa at Freeview since it started..."Sorry you've got **** all to watch,click on the link to get NO update whatsoever"....thanks Melissa

  • dougmcfarlane41 Douglas Mcfarlane (@dougmcfarlane41) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice I've got the DM. I've tried for another transmitter but nothing. Guess waiting game or Sky subscription, shame was enjoying Freeview service

  • stevend21607552 stevend21607552 (@stevend21607552) reported

    @UKBabeChannels Preeti has just come off screen on Ch.674 on Freeview right now, at this rate I will never get through to her, tweet back to me

  • WhosThatGav ɢᴀᴠɪɴ 💫 (@WhosThatGav) reported

    @dimwittedly @Forces_TV A retune should fix it. On Freeview the programme map changes from time to time, and it can cause you to lose channels. So you need to retune, to keep the "map" up-to-date.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @FurnessGirl @BBCNWT @GranadaReports Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview reception. If you can DM us your postcode and house name or number we can look into this further.

  • PrivateParts16 Private Parts now self id as a Jammie Dodger (@PrivateParts16) reported

    @DefundBBC I look at #freeview TV schedule a couple of times a week & rarely find anything I want to watch on any of the channels. But I'm an old ***. My son NEVER bothers with the main TV at all. Tablet, pc or phone is where he & his peers view content. #bbc etc take note.
