  • 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

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

    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

  • Northern_Steve Steve, just Steve (@Northern_Steve) reported from Manchester, England

    @mickmcfc1 I'll never know. I've pulled the cable out. BBC Parliament on freeview only from now on. They talk absolute bollocks but rarely about football. I'm in!

    @FreeviewAdvice Hello. My freeview is down 3 days already. Stevenage Hertfordshire

  • Gracie1982 Laura (@Gracie1982) reported

    Our Sky box is dead. We’ve lost everything we had recorded or planned. We now have very slow freeview. It’s like we’re cave people - until Tuesday when our replacement arrives.

  • WinterHopeUK alan turner (@WinterHopeUK) reported

    @ShaunKehoe @SkyHelpTeam It probably would but think this is big let down with sky glass , the channels that’s missing is bad , I am kicking sky tv in to touch getting a freeview box better and cheaper until sky add more channels to it

  • climate_is_ok Go Woke Go Broke (@climate_is_ok) reported

    @Bridgetpee You'll have Freeview tuner in a post 2016 tv. Plug in the satellite or terrestrial aerial and scan channels. Sometimes the Freeview settings need tweaking. Hit me up if you have problems

  • Lois68 Lola (@Lois68) reported

    @piersmorgan @PiersUncensored I don't have 237 on my Freeview. I'm not tech savvy. Help me

  • Haggis91569570 Northern Haggis🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Haggis91569570) reported

    @FreeviewTV Why is the freeview signal reception so terrible in north east Scotland and can we get a discount on the license fee for having to put up with your abysmal service.

  • atomicloonybin Garry Brogden (@atomicloonybin) reported

    @badmissk @366DaiChallenge I bought a telly for my pensioner sister. I went into Currys and said "doesn't have broadband, not interested in streaming or 'smart', just wants the Freeview channels". You literally can't buy such a thing. I walked out with a JVC with 90% of its functionality she'd never use.

  • daryl_millar Daryl Millar (@daryl_millar) reported

    @hammer_n_tubing I never had Sky, so I consider myself a "pay lite" customer. i.e. Freeview with a few add-ons. It'd make me uncomfortable to know I was paying as much for streaming as a Sky package.

  • christopher_eng Christopher England 🇬🇧 (@christopher_eng) reported

    Just seen that all the programme times on the Freeview version of @talktv 's EPG are 1 hour out. Bet they don't fix it in time for Monday.
