    If we're in lock down for another 3 weeks, I really feel the #sonyChristmasChannel should be put back on #freeview...Will keep people in the house ( okay, it'll easily keep me in the house🎅🤶🌲

    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

    I’ve rescanned FreeView 10 times already this evening and keep getting 23 channels. The last time I rescanned was before Christmas last year and managed to over 100 channels. Sort your crap out FreeView!

    I’ve tried to set up my mum’s new Freeview box and it’s not working. I suspect it’s me not the box. Everything online about it brushes over it in a way that suggests only the very stupid wouldn’t know how to do it.

    @BazakeMedia @TreborRhurbarb He was watching the game on Freeview and not a subscription service. These people are leeches on society so need to be dissolved in salt.

    @Philips I bought a 50PUS7556/12 50inch 4K UHD LED SMART TV WiFi Dolby Atmos Freeview HD in December (registered it with you) & since the beginning, the TV does not do anything when pressing the remote (but the red light flashes per push) for up to 3/4 minutes. Please can u help?

  • LumpyPete Lumpy Pete (@LumpyPete) reported

    @BBCThree One word. Shallow. Pandering to 'yoof' never works. To think 3 used to have great science and factual shows. Now look. And cramming it back on has messed up my freeview big time, so thanks for that BBC, never seem to get it right these days. #bbc3

  • WearsideWorrier Christopher Beard (@WearsideWorrier) reported

    @Forces_TV rapidly becoming one of the best channels on TV but alas it's no longer showing on the BT box because of weak signal in the Sunderland area so cannot watch, or record anything for catch-up later. Is this a transmitter issue? @bt_uk Still getting it via Freeview on TV

  • philipnolan1 Philip Nolan (@philipnolan1) reported

    @StainlessSRat @HobdellTerry @utv You’ve misunderstood me. They’re still on my Sky box. They’ve disappeared from the Saorview/Freeview boxes. The issue is I can’t record them on Sky, but I have a hard drive on the Saorview ones.

  • MsGoodi MsGoodi (@MsGoodi) reported

    @BBC #BBClicense I don't mind paying the license fee but I would like to be able to get the channels on #Freeview what is going on with the signal?
