    @S66Cams @ellabellajolie @sashalouise__x I've lost studio 66 on freeview can you help please

  • 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.

  • Davidp1103 David-19 (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @TalkTalk It would be nice if you could reduce or remove a £40 charge for an engineer who called but made no inspection of equipment, explained that Freeview channels had been altered; a fact that your customer services were not aware of, but should have known.

  • Davidp1103 Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @Complyorcry @Back_Two_Mee To @TalkTalk they are okay but the broadband is not a good as VM but it's okay; it cut the monthly bill in half. I have since dropped their tv service and bought a freeview recorder. Monthly bill for broadband/phone £38

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

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

  • 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.

  • summers_allan Allan Kempson (@summers_allan) reported from Romford, England

    @talkSPORT @Sjopinion10 That's a bad idea. Sky have rights to other sports too, so a netflix football service would be yet another thing to pay for if you like multiple sports. More football needs to be on freeview channels like BBC and ITV.

  • PurpleDon1973 MadameCholet (@PurpleDon1973) reported from Ilford, England

    Some days I really wish I'd kept all those calls to @JimDavisOnAir on my freeview box. I've been sent way back in time with a USB memory stick, a few years back with some calls. Damn, I really miss those days with the song choice and #JimDavisLive And it was just brilliant radio

  • AStrangerJ A.j. Stranger #UTAG (@AStrangerJ) reported from Bromley, England

    On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

  • 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.

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported from Camberwell, England

  • XtopherCalvert Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • LILBUBBLE1 Bu88ble (@LILBUBBLE1) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • JohnLoony John Cartwright (@JohnLoony) reported

    Great Movies Action channel (Freeview 42). “The Apocalypse” A disaster movie that is so apocalyptically bad that it hasn’t got enough budget for cgi of devastation. Just gormless characters watching TV news, or watching the devastation (neither of which is visible to the viewer).

  • annie_mel_farm Her Maj, Annie MF 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 (@annie_mel_farm) reported

    Isn't normal TV/Freeview awful? 30+ channels of total crap, every night. What do people watch?

  • Cosmic_Carbon_ Cosmic🪐 | Splatoon era again (@Cosmic_Carbon_) reported

    @MAGNETIC_DOGZ Basically you needed a paid service with certain companies to even get Nickelodeon, CN, ect on the TV. I grew up on the freeview channels, pop, cbbc, citv, all that.

  • adam_markson Adam Markson (@adam_markson) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Thank you, but this still doesn't answer my question. My question was does Freeview itself (i.e. the management of Freeview) not have the authority to remove certain TV channels if they think another broadcaster could provide a better service for both Freeview and the public?

  • twtaddict03 sof (@twtaddict03) reported

    tasha and andrew are the worst thing on freeview tv #LoveIsland

  • scott_gamer Scott M (@scott_gamer) reported

    @Vanhalen20081 @russty_russ If you think it's bad on Freeview, it's probably worse on Sky and Virgin. When I look at the list of channels on my EPG, I can't help but think that some only exist for the sake of ad revenue.

  • se6london SE6London (@se6london) reported

    I have a 50" Roku TV just purchased from Argos. I am in a weak reception area, if I scan on a good day I have HD freeview channels. If I turn on the TV next day and signal is weak the HD channels are completely removed and I have to do another scan - super annoying @HisenseUK

  • chimaira1967 mak (@chimaira1967) reported

    @NOW absolute thieves I pay for your service monthly and now your bombarding us with adverts as well, I can watch all the ads I want on freeview, drop the ads. I’d u want to run ads offer a lower price subscription, don’t implement it on everyone and ask for another £5

  • GaryinScotland Gary Cummins (@GaryinScotland) reported

    @NeilClark66 How many pedestrians are killed by drivers compared with drivers killed by pedestrians Neil. And what ******** is 'The Great Reset'? Is that when you get log out and then log back in to your telly to update the Freeview channels?

  • Whisker12899908 Mother of two (@Whisker12899908) reported

    @GBNEWS my aunt has just messaged to say she can no longer view GB News on 236 freeview? Anyone else having this issue ?
