  • 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.

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

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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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😡

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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

    @MyHydeHome @SCCIAlphatrack Not even sure how that's possible there's no record anyways over the weekend we lost signal for the communal aerial it has become very weak very pixelated can pick up the Freeview HD channels

  • 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

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

  • Carti_Mandua LadyAnniSpiceInCognito#CountessBimboIsBack# (@Carti_Mandua) reported

    @Gidon_Barak We watch most docs on Freeview about the camps etc ..horrific I know but more people need to watch them ... & whats noticable is that the survivors when telling their awful stories always smile are never bitter ... certain people could learn from this .. brings tears to my eyes

  • keithtmccartney KΞiTH 👊😎👊 McCartney (@keithtmccartney) reported

    @redparaman @colinbrazierGBN I have a fairly new LG and the Freeview app came pre-installed, but won't I need a fv aerial for it, it's not going to load anything just because an Internet connection is there, I've never loaded fv before, don't know how it works, I use streaming apps for all media.

  • dickiemint1 Dickie Mint (@dickiemint1) reported

    @simesa @cleanfeed_ttvr Won't that HD service be online, though? No capacity on Freeview!

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital Im talking about bbc on sky and freesat of course, and itv when you know how to tune it in. But this will be good news, i hope it also triggers some form of support for freeview users.

  • anthea_bailey Anthea Bailey (@anthea_bailey) reported

    Has anyone else got the Apple TV. Connection for their TV? It’s a nightmare and the worst possible way to watch TV. EE have given up their excellent system so I has no choice. Talk about long winded routes to watch. Mostly we have gone back to Freeview in the TV.

  • jasondcoles Jason Coles (@jasondcoles) reported

    @LGUK Sorry but its still disappointing, separate apps for each catch service is not user friendly hence the need for Freeview Play. It’s a kick in the teeth for those who have invested in your product, especially as your promoting new models with Freeview Play. We have been let down!!

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital While i was on the phone i ask freeview if their were plans for any muxes to switch to t2, absolutely clueless the lady said whats your postcode, i put the phone down. Seens to me dvb t2 plans are either still internal or a long way off.

  • grunthos Grant Burton (@grunthos) reported

    All that chizz has broken the Freeview.

  • jsblake_uk jsb (@jsblake_uk) reported

    @GBNEWS Thank **** we only get Freeview light.

  • Big_Tim47 BigTim47 (@Big_Tim47) reported

    @S66Cams @leximaecarter If only we could have Lexi on for just part of the night! Stayed up to stupid o’clock to discover she’s ON FREEVIEW for HOURS not appearing in Sky at all!! We pay a frigging SKY subscription! Feel ripped off after signing up today! Is this a piss take?!
