  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 👍

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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😡

  • 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.

  • 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 😂

  • 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.

  • 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

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

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

    @TimesRadio Freeview set-top box. Old ppl ****.

  • mar17014531 Amad09 🇺🇦🇪🇺💚🌍🌳🚲 (@mar17014531) reported

    @Centuries_Sound @scottygb I always wonder why on earth the BBC doesn't use one or more of the Freeview channels to broadcast programs from its archive. There are hundreds of wonderful old shows that never get seen. Wasted opportunity 🙁

  • pinkygeorgina91 miss pinkygeorgina Wright (@pinkygeorgina91) reported

  • TheVietGwent GJPowell (@TheVietGwent) reported

    @MediaBoyUK GB News on Freeview 236 & Murdoch's new Talk TV on Freeview 237 from 25 April would probably help both channels...? 🤔

  • cottam_anthony Anthony Cottam 🇬🇧🐺 (@cottam_anthony) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I was on normal Freeview TV and watch @SkyNews and it just went off twice but it is back now. Sorry tagged the wrong service

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @GreenDragonpip Hi, We do not provide a service to view Freeview online. If your friend views the programs via catch up players such as BBC iPlayer or ITV Hub you would need to speak to the broadcasters directly. Thanks, Dylan

  • Kimisgloves Argyle Jack (@Kimisgloves) reported

    @always_argyle12 @only1argyle Cause ArgyleTV is a joke and Radio Devon never put us on freeview

  • jus_leese Justin Leese 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿💙🇺🇦🌻 (@jus_leese) reported

    @RestoreTVHelp I’ll post your response into the Facebook Group in question. There are about 6 people reporting recent problems with Freeview through an aerial in Llantwit Major. I’ve put a generic postcode for the town into your checker and it’s an area which should have received your postcards

  • Homer19721 Homer1972 🇬🇧 (@Homer19721) reported

    @SDMATTHEWS1 Reigate - in hotel down south. It’s usually channel 236 on freeview

  • Gers89_ Greegsy's Gloves (@Gers89_) reported

    @tattoo_stew69 Their box is like one of those freeview boxes from about 10-15 years ago. No apps on it or anything. Poor selection of channels, reception was terrible and kept cutting out. They were bastards about trying to move back to Sky (even though they have a 14 day cooling off period)
