@Channel4 Hello. Can I watch Channel 4 *live* through the All 4 app on smart TV? All I see is catchup. I would like to watch CH 4 news every night but my aerial is broken, no Freeview. Please advise.

@tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

@jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

@osteogenesis I’m on EE and haven’t had any trouble at all. Got my phone with them too on sim only. In fact it’s been so good I’m going to renew with them when it’s due. I’ve got a freeview box and shared Amazon Prime on a family thing.

@AlexMacLeod9 the tv was off, the website was down, the phone was probably being inundated with calls as it was a recorded message then it cut me off! I guess all customers were doing the same. On freeview for now, I'll check later if they're back onstream.

@RobertMHolt @virginmedia @AkShane47 Still no channels at 8pm. Using freeview what a complete fail. Sky broadband package here I come after huge mistakes on my bills since August

@virginmedia Pretty scant in the way of updates given how long it’s been since the outage began. Telling us that a handful of TV channels are available now is all well & good, but I can turn my V6 box off completely & get those for nothing via Freeview.

@BBCSnooker why to love of God would you change the freeview channel 601 from Gilbert game to the Hawkins game after an hour!? People,like me, who have just moved house and no WiFi yet, so can't use red button service! Seriously sick of snooker and whoever makes stupid decisions
