@FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

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

@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.

@drewhill79 @VodafoneUK @MattJConnor @StHKHIS Same here. BT got the 150 mb and it flies. Good support and I stream everything!! Don’t even have normal freeview.

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!!

@Liv_Lever @GBNEWS And my broadband is down. I hope @GBNews is on a Freeview frequency that can cope with hot weather (looking at you BBC).

@GBNEWS just watching the launch on Freeview. Picture quality awful and dialogue out of sync. Not a great first impression. Come on, up your game!

@FreeviewAdvice @GlobalClarity1 Also having massive Freeview problems today in London SW5 (Earl's Court). BBC is still there plus RT and Al Jazera. Everything is completely scrambled.

@BeccaHutson Any chance of looking into getting an Android TV version of the app up in the future? It'll certainly help those of us on Freeview who have a poor quality picture be able to watch in HD instead.

@almostoneword @GBNEWS They’re using a freeview muxed channel, sharing a single SD channels bandwidth with other stations to save money. The audio is also terrible and out of sync.

@LizBigbird @GBNEWS Same on freeview. It probably won't take long to fix.

@tennisontelly iTV not offering HD broadcast to Freeview customers make it worthwhile looking out for a Eurosport subscription offer, which is what I did and will continue to do. I'd have liked to watch it on ITV but the SD broadcast quality is terrible. Eurosport offers EVERY match in HD.
