  • budgie Lee 'Budgie' Barnett (@budgie) reported from Richmond, England

    @DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

  • 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.

  • omotforest david sinfield #pssc (@omotforest) reported from West Molesey, England

    To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

  • Beige29 Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    @loudouglas75 I have such shit freeview I only have itv2+1

  • ProfJohnEllis John Ellis (@ProfJohnEllis) reported from Egham, England

    @MariaMichalis @All4 C4 is in talks to join Britbox... and you get surveillance on any streaming service, even ad funded. That’s how they can target the ads and tell you where your nearest car dealership is (new in All4). Only Freeview lets you keep anonymity

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

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

  • daguvernor tommy harper (@daguvernor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

  • 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 😂

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • 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

  • Beige29 Dark_Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    @Disco_Squirrel I’ve got the shitty EE freeview box and it’s one of the apps on there, but never used

  • 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.

  • niklasRen Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

  • Beige29 DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  • vjlorenzato Victoria Lorenzato (@vjlorenzato) reported from Brentford, England

    Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

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

    @LushJEL I'm not much of a TV person as I don't really like it, but I found channel 83 on Freeview TV which is NOW The 80s, so some nights I just have it on in the background, lots of crap but also some good old ones 👍

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • JensFallesen Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England

    @leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

  • DJGaryBaldy DJGaryBaldy (@DJGaryBaldy) reported

    My Freeview box is recording #CelebrityMasterChef twice yet it's only been set to record once. Stupid box

  • UKTVPlayHelp UKTV Play Help (@UKTVPlayHelp) reported

    @paulajt Likely the known issue we have with Freeview devices. A fix will be released soon this week so you can tell us if you still got the error.

  • meraulton Meraulton (@meraulton) reported

    Build up your own library of DVDs and CDs because tonight's tv is just awful. I expect terrestrial tv to be bad every night but Freeview is now following suit. Just put your own stuff on. A bit of Genesis then Apocalypse Now.

  • Mathe_Musician MatheMusician (@Mathe_Musician) reported

    @aryomjapes @Beccabell05 @katemassey77 The beloved just records them & deletes the adverts if we might want to watch it again, or just fast forwards thro' them if not. We *never* see adverts because we never watch anything live. (Also only watch freeview 'cos there's more than enough to watch on there.)

  • ChrisBagguley Chris Bagguley💙 (@ChrisBagguley) reported

    @UtchStokie @sailingbikeruk I have this problem every week. When MW frequency was available Stoke were always on Freeview. Since that went they're always on FM hence I can't listen nor is Sounds available.

  • Peter_Mugridge Peter Mugridge (@Peter_Mugridge) reported

    @Saltbar Good God no - I watch on a proper TV with Freeview and only very, very, rarely watch something on whatever channel's iPlayer service it is - and then only if it's something I miss when it's broadcast and I didn't record it either. Is that what you're doing? Online only viewing?

  • hqbinders TomR 🔸🇪🇺💙 (@hqbinders) reported

    @Go4gold100 Not Freeview any more, but we can on Freesat. Might not be any help.

  • DJSimonUK DJSimonUK (@DJSimonUK) reported from Gillingham, England

    @ITV @skytv is there a problem with channel 103 itv1 on sky tv and also on freeview .,., sounds been cutting out all day ,, not just with me ??? Gillingham Kent ME7 AND Also CT5 Whistable Kent,,

  • ImmuneNaturally John Kelley (@ImmuneNaturally) reported

    @LozzaFox @TalkTV For us TalkTV on freeview has become unwatchable the signal strength appears to much weaker this last week just enough for it be there but blocky with constant audio interruption as such unwatchable. They did the same thing to RT before banning it outright. All other channels ok.

  • KiaStarmer Kia Starmer GT 🇬🇧🇺🇦 🕖 (@KiaStarmer) reported

    @Leon_C @gerry_berry I'm really not sure about the direction @BritishAlba's social media team have gone in though. They should stick to what they know - cheap tellies with crap freeview tuners.
