    Fog risk and disruption to TV and radio transmissions. Expect some lost Freeview or low signal channels on some mornings next week! #KentWeather @AffinityDJ @AffinityKent

    Continually frustrated by @TalkTalk and its inconsistent service and performance. Have today purchased a freeview recorder to replace their box and will be actively looking for new broadband provider.

    @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.

  • OmieAKA Omie (@OmieAKA) reported

    @Darrenjs68 @BBCNews Yes. Its almost like all those hundreds of other channels on yr Sky box or Freeview service don't exist.

  • ScotRamsay Scot Ramsay (@ScotRamsay) reported

    @lennylaw When you have 6 live TV channels available to all on Freeview, and you show the same thing on 5 channels, and close down the sixth, that's just bollocks.

  • sadmanontheleft Jack Boag (@sadmanontheleft) reported

    As someone pointed out, Channel 4 didn’t broadcast Diana’s funeral, putting on kids cartoons instead. It’s kinda their job so that people on Freeview can watch something else while the others broadcast the gloomy ****, particularly in a pandemic where you can’t leave the house

  • AlistairMay Alistair the Unproductive (@AlistairMay) reported

    @oashton88 @FinishedZine BBC is a subscription service too. But there's a host of other channels on freeview.

  • juneandnoz June Taylor (@juneandnoz) reported

    @scott_steve It is important. But if you don't want to watch it Freeview and Sky are doing other stuff. So change channels. Not a problem

  • watford1881 Stuart Cashmore (@watford1881) reported

    Why is Hive Live Match Live Tab not working @WatfordFC Only Freeview tab is available I've secured my seat so I can watch @davem2612

  • vinceunlimited Vince (@vinceunlimited) reported

    @jimwaterson At least iPlayer is broadcast via an App on my smart TV therefore gets broadcast as HD. Freeview cannot managed HD on any more than 5 channels and BBC4 ain't one of them. SD is visually poor in big flatscreens

  • xAbbierose Abbie Sims 👩🏼‍🦯 (@xAbbierose) reported

    Anyone else unable to get 4seven on freeview? Says service unavailable but is working on freesat 🤔

  • Aurora_UK_LAH Lisa Hetherington (@Aurora_UK_LAH) reported

    @AlanFisher Hi Alan, have you any idea why Chauvin trial has been removed from Al J UK Freeview news? So angry/disappointed as was following non-stop coverage for 8 days then went off without explanation yest! Feel let down. Thanks for your excellent work incl impeachment trial.

  • PabloAllelli Pablo Allelli (@PabloAllelli) reported

    @GaryinScotland @mandapen Where can't you get Freeview? I can't get all the Freeview channels as I'm about as far away from a transmitter as you can get in the UK, and its not helped by my rubbish aerial, but I can still get at least a couple of dozen channels, even on a bad atmospherics day.
