  • 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.

  • 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😡

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

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

    I will never have normal freeview tv

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

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

  • 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

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

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

    Channel ‘Pick’ on freeview. Never heard of it before but grateful for it tonight #chelsea

  • vjlorenzato Victoria Lorenzato (@vjlorenzato) reported from Brentford, England

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

  • fesshole Fesshole 🧻 (@fesshole) reported

    I'm sorry, mum and dad. The shelf in the living room didn't fall down because of dad's shoddy work or mum putting too many figurines on it. I hated them watching me while I was trying to enjoy the 10 minutes freeview so I pulled the shelf down. Sorry about the 20 year argument

  • espanswick Ellie (@espanswick) reported

    @lottyburns We have Freesat as the signal for terrestrial Freeview at our house has never worked so need the dish but we don’t have and subscription TV so apart from initially paying for the Freesat Recorder box it costs nothing.

  • thabenjo7 Nejmeista3332222244 (@thabenjo7) reported

    @DylanBurns1776 Because this is just an average day for U.K. football fans, our freeview TV is **** and this is the only source of free entertainment.

  • pop_hill Pop (@pop_hill) reported

    @BritBox_UK @ITVX This sounds like a repeat if the Ondigital saga, became ITVDigital closed down and became Freeview.

  • taergsinaimad Damian (@taergsinaimad) reported

    Itv4 is absolutely horrible in standard definition 🤮 it's 2022, why aren't you broadcasting in hd on Freeview @itv?

  • martindalton5 Martin Dalton (@martindalton5) reported

    @ITVX pretty crap that ITV only have 1 channel in HD in 2022 on Freeview and none of them are on their App !!!!

  • Exa_talks Paul (@Exa_talks) reported

    @amazonianwolf @SkyHelpTeam @SkySportsF1 Exactly I watch f1 and that's about it, occasionally rugby but 90% are on Freeview these days. I basically pay to watch f1 and that's it, while my friends across the pond watch in 4k with multiple views telemetry etc all for a few quid a month Vs our stupid numbers

  • adthedoor Adam Hammond (@adthedoor) reported

    @BullAntics Nope. And reception is so poor here that we only get about 14 channels on Freeview.

  • juneandnoz June Taylor (@juneandnoz) reported

    @QuestTV No transmission of Quest on Freeview 12. Have retuned the telly to no avail. Can pick up Quest plus 1 on Channel 70. No other Freeview channels affected. Is there a problem with Lincolnshire transmitter?

  • wjosh1996 Josh (@wjosh1996) reported

    @SSHayre9 Nunez looks for more channels than freeview, the agenda never does
