  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Stroudgreenguy J. Alfred Prufrock (@Stroudgreenguy) reported from Tottenham, England

    @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.

  • 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 😂

  • D_Hollingsworth Dan Hollingsworth (@D_Hollingsworth) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    When did BBC4 HD. Leave Freeview? What a load of ****, missed a chunk of #TOTP and joining it late with Michael ruddy Jackson.

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @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

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

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

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

    @amg1968 I'm sorry you're experiencing problems with Freeview reception. I have checked the DMs and can see this has been an ongoing problem due to variable reception in your area. Thanks, C

  • Melisandre6 Melisandre #JusticeMatters (@Melisandre6) reported

    @Raptor_Judy @Cynical_CJ I've got Virgin Cable & Freeview & Netflix and Now TV but there's always another service. Anyhoose, I don't think they do Hulu in the UK. Recently just got Now on a cheep deal but the only decent show is Game of Thrones & I seen it 10 times.

  • dcastrogiovanni 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Dan Castrogiovanni 🇮🇹 (@dcastrogiovanni) reported

    Tech folk... How can it be that Freesat is ahead of Freeview? Do I just have a really crap Freeview TV?

  • thesausagekerb The Sausage Kerb (@thesausagekerb) reported

    Only 1000 spectators are allowed to be at @krcircuit for @OfficialBSB this weekend. What a shame. Please support the series and @krcircuit by watching on the 'Quest' Channel. Quest is available on Freesat 167, Sky 144, Freeview 37 and Virgin 172 #Superabikes #KnockhillBSB

  • GlobalClarity1 South East Sean (@GlobalClarity1) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Neither. The Freeview is so bad in my area I will be watching it via other means

  • melhill_ Mel. (@melhill_) reported

    Twitter! Help! How can Nic’s grandma watch the game without any apps on a tablet? Are there any free Freeview streams she can watch via Safari? She’s in hospital and doesn’t know how to download apps 😭

  • Rich46uk Richard Chapman (@Rich46uk) reported

    @EurosportCare @OfficialBSB Hi, tx for rpy, yes still great racing. Just wish we could watch the same coverage on eurosport thats on quest. I cant get quest due to no signal for freeview in my location. Therefore missed out on all the chat from matt and the team watching it on the app.

  • RealSaxondale Duke Silver (@RealSaxondale) reported

    @a516digital Trying to work out what this means for people with **** Freeview (Freeview-lite due to repeater masts) and **** Freesat ( no Ch4 HD).

  • TechnoDeviant TechnoDeviant (@TechnoDeviant) reported

    @appleinsider It was on freeview tv and on the free terrestrial ITV channel found on all TV’s in the UK so there was no need to watch via Apple TV or itv hub online or any other streaming service. Not sure why this is an issue just an inconvenience

  • Brendanlovesu1 Brendan (@Brendanlovesu1) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Anyone else in Northern Ireland having problems getting RTE2 on freeview ? All settled to watch the Ireland v USA rugby match and it’s saying programme not available 😢
