  • 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.

  • MartinC93414706 Martin (@MartinC93414706) reported from Lambeth, England

    @channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

  • Marmalord Marmalord (the) (@Marmalord) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @itvhub Humax FVP-4000T 1TB Freeview Set Top Box Recorder, and having to sign in more or less every time is making us all dislike Martin Freeman

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • 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.

  • shoxtl2 Carl (@shoxtl2) reported from Croydon, England

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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😡

  • RegenerateAndy Andy Smith (@RegenerateAndy) reported from Wandsworth, England

  • 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

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

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

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

    My broadband has gone down, so stuck watching QVC on Freeview.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • MichaelCJDavid Michael (@MichaelCJDavid) reported

    @ivorsawbottom This needs to be good, Ivor. I’m holding you personally responsible for the lousy Freeview TV signal, I’m getting from the transmitter, at Rowridge, on Paradise Island. It just won’t do, you know.

  • Michael80789776 Michael CLARK (@Michael80789776) reported

    @ShiregreenOwl @teresadg0 The online services are definitely a big contributor, I agree. But a dedicated 24 hr news service on Freeview is far more accessible for many, and that will have an impact

  • don_mac D Mac (@don_mac) reported

    @Danny_McMoomins Its going to be able on Freeview 643 or something even after the **** grot channels. The daytime TV Gammon's will never reach it too many world war 2 docs, reruns of lovejoy and homes under the hammer to skip through first.

  • Jack_Jack_101 JackJack 3.141 🥧 (@Jack_Jack_101) reported

    @SkyUK 😱 how much? I hope that includes more than the basic sky channels. Been a while since I last checked prices had no idea they increased so much. Looks like us poor people will have to make do with just old fashioned #freeview life of a pleb I'm afraid 😔

  • roddytherobot Ray Rodden 🇬🇧🇮🇱 (@roddytherobot) reported

    Looking at BBC News at 22.45. Bias crap #DefundTheBBC Looking forward to @GBNEWS I may disagree with their reports but I believe their reports will NOT be biased and slanted to suit an 'agenda' 8pm Sunday Freeview 236 Freesat HD 216 Sky HD 515 Virgin Media HD 626 YouView 236

  • AJFeneley James Fen (@AJFeneley) reported

    Anybody else lost the vast majority of their Freeview TV channels in the past week? Used to have basically everything but had to rescan and now down to 16 channels.... no ITV, no C4, nothing at all in HD any more. Had 100+ last week.... #rdguk

  • DeadGirlZombie Charlotte Allen (@DeadGirlZombie) reported

    @virginmedia we contacted you yesterday to say our WiFi is down! You tell us you can’t get an engineer until Sat! It’s ridiculous! You owe us more then just money off our next bill! We have no tv as have no freeview and have to use our mobile data for that long is unacceptable!

  • josierustle josie 💛🤍💜🖤 (@josierustle) reported

    ahhhhhhhg this part of hotel-staying where crap 00s true crime documentaries on the freeview is all there is to entertain

  • DiGada1 Ali (@DiGada1) reported

    @WeAreYellows49 @GBNEWS Doesn't work on my TV. We've never been able to get many of the freeview channels in this part of the country

  • NickJStilwell1 Nick J Stilwell🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇿🇦🐾 (@NickJStilwell1) reported
