  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @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

  • rebecca_ryder21 Rebecca Ryder 💙 (@rebecca_ryder21) reported

    I finally figured out how to get sky arts woo. It was pick, I retuned it and then it vanished. You have to do a "network channel scan" if you're on Freeview and it vanishes.

  • DavidBoink David ***** (@DavidBoink) reported

    @Dandlio19372821 because the #freeview signal is so bad at the moment and boosted by sky & virgin, you'd be better off watching it straight off the telly

  • ChamarelDesigns Chamarel Designs (@ChamarelDesigns) reported

    @greatmoviesuk I’ve been watching GreatMovies Christmas since it launched for this year and it’s just disappeared mid-movie this evening. It returned but with a split screen. Unplugged tv & still had the issue so I auto retuned & now channels 51 AND 49 don’t exist on my freeview!

  • TEOL85 The Evolution Of Life (@TEOL85) reported

    @SkyUK Freeview Play should get Sky Play App with Sky Arts, Challenge, Pick and News the Freeview channels free of charge with the option to further login with your forum password and put your viewing card number in. That converts existing smart TVs into a Sky Glass TV as well.

  • neilmclaughlin2 neil mclaughlin (@neilmclaughlin2) reported

    @LiamODellUK Well over half of freeview channels never use subtitles, time all channels are required to use them as part of licence

  • sunkisscribbles Joy 🏳️‍🌈 (@sunkisscribbles) reported

    @ScrumptiousBlue Ahh OK, I just don't want my account deleted so that's a bit reassuring - thanks. Been asking them for help for 10 days but they won't reply, no idea why. Dr Pimple Popper - isn't that on Freeview?

  • notabotnumber Jon (@notabotnumber) reported

    @TheDoctor2058 Not really, got the 5 main channels and a couple more on Freeview, says a bad signal.

  • SCEnquirer Southern Counties Enquirer (@SCEnquirer) reported

    @GemSiobhan @spectator @afneil You can pick up a 1TB BT freeview+ box on eBay for about £69. No subscriptions. For me it's buying a freeview+ box was a small price to pay to never have to watch adverts.

  • DiamondClasp Diamonds 💙 (@DiamondClasp) reported

    @StephenMangan @8twinge @SkyArts But you can't get Freeview on a laptop... (We don't have a tv signal here so have to stream everything)
