  • Robbo72uk Andy Roberts (@Robbo72uk) reported from Southport, England

    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

  • 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!

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

  • jeannie_pie Jeannie pie (@jeannie_pie) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Cont pt2 - guides never had both London & local (BBC & ITV) this only started about 10 days ago when my BTYOUVIEW box had an update. BT say Freeview are responsible.

  • jatolion Lion is carefully out of his den again. (@jatolion) reported

    Its Freeview, not Poxtel so shouldnt have a problem as long as he can see the satellite from the den. Going to see if he can turn it into a mobile installation by mounting the dish on a Speaker tripod.

  • NotToryScum Not a Tory (@NotToryScum) reported

    And it think it’s terrible that the other home nations can watch their team on Freeview, yet if the Scots want to see one of the best Scottish teams ever, they have to fork out for a sky sports subscription. Sort this out and get the games on the BBC or STV @ScottishFA

  • DJLujoso DJ Lujoso (@DJLujoso) reported

    Hehe.. I have worked out a way to get in & out of the ULEZ undetected. Gonna go scope it out in a bit. Trouble is, if it fails I'll have to pay TFL twelve quid & I won't know if it works for three days... Beats sitting in watching freeview, eh?

  • FactsStomp Phil's Train and Retro Life (@FactsStomp) reported

    @FernRiddell I totally forgot about this... damn the lack of a +1 on Freeview! Though I do have this on HD DVD (because all the cool people have HD DVD)

  • roasty88 Ryan McVeigh (@roasty88) reported

    @WezzyStef907 I get that they want to move it their own service but can't see why they can't put it on one the UK Freeview channels they own like @paramountnet_uk for this season. Would be a ratings killer, advertise @paramountplus and stop piracy. Seems like a win for everyone there.

  • trimbuz Andy😎 (@trimbuz) reported

    Dear @HumaxUK I can't get the Freeview YouTube app to open on my 4000T. Tried everything, no software update. Please help, thanks 👍

  • Golf_5_TM Tim H (G5TM) (@Golf_5_TM) reported

    BTW re: my earlier poll re: TVI.. please share I’d like votes and responses on this. It seems like it’s all bands causing issue but ONLY on satellite and DAB!?? Not freeview. I’m sure both satellite and DAB are linked to their rf distributor in the attic.

  • SRL_82 Simon Lumley™ 🇬🇧 (@SRL_82) reported

    @3DMarkB @Classicbritcom Channel 91 (Great TV channel) on standard Freeview service.

  • MattyMcManus95 Matthew McManus (@MattyMcManus95) reported
