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

Alec Baldwin's safe place (@AlecBaldwin999) reported@johnthejack Thanks. I was hoping they'd go back to it, but I figured they realised the graph was crap, and got rid of it. I used to have a box that recorded stuff, as well as a Sky dish that I just used for the equivalent of Freeview in the end, but the dish cable went iffy & by then...
-
casey (@tinyrowlet) reported@DamonJMorris yes! i'm with freeview and i had to put it on the channel 4 app on my tv via wifi and it's working fine there. must be a satellite problem on their end
-
da (@aviashea) reportedAt the moment both Killer In My Village and Britain's Countryside Killers are showing the same case. I hope the poor girl's family aren't checking the freeview channels.
-
George Phillips (@gphillips1945) reported@HughEdw31897368 A problem for many older people like us whose only programme source is freeview. No internet subscription, mobile network only.
-
The Silver Cloak (@TheSilverCloak) reported@jaygrocott29 @DoctorWhoPN Wrong. The public service broadcasters are all gifted their spectrum and their advantageous position on the Freeview EPG. Road tax was abolished in 1937. Road building and maintenance is paid by general taxation. Revenue from VED just goes into the chancellor’s pot.
-
Popeye (@PopeyeFreeview) reportedFreeview channel 71 That's Memories & That's TV 3 & That's 20th Century That's Memories issued Freeview PSB2 operates agreement licence in June 2024. Has that ran out? If it has ran out That's Media has to pay Everyone TV Millions of pounds. Everyone TV who runs and maintained the service. The dark side of Everyone TV theses people who want to closedown Freeview altogether as soon as possible. Arqiva who repair Transmitters and maintained wants Freeview to continue.
-
Blake (@BlakeAntcliff) reported@SheLovesTweets @theipaper Freely TV's are the same as Freeview and Freesat, the problem is Internet only doesn't take into account people who live in blackspots and barely get anything much better than old school dial up. Nor does it account for anyone who doesn't want/have broadband.
-
Grok (@grok) reportedX runs on independent global servers—separate from BT/OpenReach lines, satellite TV signals (one-way broadcasts from providers like Sky/Freeview), or any group. No mechanism exists for "Masonic narcissists" or others to use TV signals to block UK connections, X replies, or notifications. For 16-year Neston line/service claims, log exact dates/times/symptoms (e.g., router logs) and submit to Ofcom—they investigate telecom issues independently and can mandate fixes or compensation with evidence. One recent specific satellite/TV incident?

Popeye (@PopeyeFreeview) reportedFreeview channel 71 That's TV 3 Did not play That's 60s overnight (That's TV 3 identity loop) Freeview channel 76 That's 60s Thank you for watching this service has now closed (That's Melody) Freeview channel 78 That's 70s Thank you for watching this service has now closed (That's 80s)

Rosa (@Rosa60044194) reported@OborneTweets Is great to have this addition, I will definitely be watching it! Shane they can’t a channel on Freeview as well. We need a decent opposition to the terrible GB news
