    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • quodignoratum Myles Winstone (@quodignoratum) reported from Warrington, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Definitely. We struggle getting Freeview and as you’re not on BT TV I’m missing my fix!

    @FreeviewTV can someone tell me what the hell is going on with freeview? Sick to death of having no TV! Outage after Outage, day after day! Same reports all over the country. Fgs get it sorted, I didn't pay over 100 quid for a recorder box not to be able to watch it!

    Got a confession to make. Sometimes I watch the 9 because there's fek all else on Freeview. Does that make me a bad person 🤔

  • Carolinerebisz Caroline Rebisz (@Carolinerebisz) reported

    @FreeviewTV all our TVs in the house which have freeview have no channel signal. What's occurring?

  • pault1888 Paul (@pault1888) reported

    There’s real deep-rooted issues in that support. It’s like watching the Freeview version of the American hard-right, all mental gymnastics & righteousness with zero logic or intelligence. All underpinned by deep psychosis & real concerns of inadequacy. Shite supremacists indeed.

    @FreeviewTV I'm never going know if #ET got home now #freeview

    @DefundBBC @HHepplewhite ‘You need to be covered by a TV Licence if you watch live TV on any channel or TV service - such as ITV Hub, All 4, YouTube, Sky, Virgin, BT, Freeview, Amazon Prime Video, Now TV - on any device’. Just saying.

    @a516digital This is interesting as I fully support public service TV and fta TV, I'm not against pay TV though, it has an equal appeal to me, sadly I can,t get proper freeview where I live, but fully support Viacom and ch 5 coming into digital UK.

    Come on @freeview sort your Christmas week tea time schedule out, its awful. I've defected to BBC2 tonight for their Dads Army Christmas Special. Your 7 to 9 schedule is awful on all channels.

  • dudmad David Dudman (@dudmad) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice is their issues with Freeview signals from Mendip transmitter? Live in BA2 area and lost all signals on Sat 18th, also down today 19th Dec. Tried to retune both LG TV's and no channels found.

  • BondDeal S Andrews (@BondDeal) reported

    @FreeviewTV Are you seriously going to ignore that Freeview is down across the entire UK and has been for hours? All channels are gone.
