    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • Dante_Banks Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England

    @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.

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    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 😂

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

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

  • psnow85 Peter Snow (@psnow85) reported from Arkley, England

    @Samantha_J_Rea Hmm not to sure about freeview but definitely freesat it’s been taken off for over a year. Probably the same though. Sucks big time. Anyway. Hope you are well.

    @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

    @jackieshears2 The Freeview service is not something we have an effect on Jackie as this is not supplied by us. This service is supplied by the TV aerial coming into the property. Have you connected the TV aerial directly to the back of the TV to see if the issues are persisting?

  • KevPeaWilliams KevPeaWilliams (@KevPeaWilliams) reported

    @MarinaPurkiss That old CRT TV! Just for stupid bollocks fun question... how many lines were there on a standard UK telly broadcast? Clue: more than ******** standard Freeview blurvision...

  • moaningbrit1 Moaning *** (@moaningbrit1) reported

    Freeview down in Eastbourne, scrambled signal. #aerial #freeview

  • mickey_omeara Mickey O'Meara (@mickey_omeara) reported

    @robin_parkes oh yeah I bet that was annoying, we've never had that problem here on all the tvs and boxes you get to pick what channels go at which numbers. Before ITV HD was at 3 it had adverts for kent and the wrong local news which is why they couldn't put it at 3. Still happens on Freeview

  • baileys36 Jenny Lewis (@baileys36) reported

    Had no Freeview channels whatsoever for 3 hours! I'm fed up with this. Picture and sound has been awful since Thursday. I want a refund on my licence fee!

  • BDpMOHUjfU0guzV oli henshaw (@BDpMOHUjfU0guzV) reported

    @Dinnaedothat @SamBT40 @fesshole So you agree the bbc is a lefty biased site All 5 main freeview channels are so dont talk **** about the media being a tory outlet
