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.

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.

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.

Popeye (@PopeyeFreeview) reportedIs Freeview Channel 52 Great! Romance gone 24 hours? was sharing with Great! Romance Mix. Is there anyone stupid enough to check if the channel is broadcasting 24 hours please.

Stephen Meyer (@stephen_e_meyer) reported@joshstifter ALIEN. 12yo. HBO “Freeview”. We lived in rural town that got cable tv early and I don’t think my parents even knew what HBO was. Had nightmares for months but couldn’t tell anyone because it was rated R and I would get in trouble.

CharlesWynfordLodge (@2hrTV) reported@CountMoriarty @dave43law Yeah its stupid. What is the positive of switching it off? Everyone would need a fire stick type of thing and apps to watch channels. They're rubbish. There's often delay/time lag and no full access to all Freeview channels. Freeview is better

𝘾lifford (@cliffordh) reportedWhy is @ThatsTVOfficial "That's TV 2" only available on #Freeview, the weather today is playing havoc, constantly "Poor signal quality", why was the channel dropped from @freesat_tv - where the picture was never affected by "atmospherics". #ThatsTV

Lorraine (@LSW1957) reported@Guyz20051 I do watch Freeview, I never watch Sky or Netflix or any of them, so much crap on the TV just watch the old stuff.x

Ken (@Ken63753831) reportedPlease sign before the deadline as BBC and labour are trying to pass a law to shut freeview down effecting millions of people forcing them to pay for unbiased news
-
Stephen Neal (@Stephen_Neal) reported@UHD4k @Bobbinz @SVGEurope Afraid although I work for BBC Studios (which makes shows for the BBC) I have no insight into what iPlayer may support in the future. AAC was chosen for Freeview HD because Dolby had no equivalent receiver-mix audio desc'n support in 2009ish when the platform was standardised.

BENEFITS NEWS (@BENEFITS_NEWS) reported@aconda_ann I am quite old fashioned as well. I did get a bargain smallish 'internet / smart' TV but no use when freezes or internet cuts off (been happening for years, with no fix). It's on a terrible indoor aerial, so I can't get most Freeview on that one but my fave usual telly: Freeview.
