  • 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.

  • 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

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    @Forces_TV hi guys having a few problems with your freeview picture in London it freezes or breaks up had it since Friday

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

  • maggieinlondon Maggie - wear a mask 💙🏳️‍🌈🌱 (@maggieinlondon) reported from Wandsworth, England

    With all this wall to wall coverage crap of a dead man by @skynews and @bbcnews Netflix and Freeview's viewing figures must be the highest they've ever been.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    Time for the BBC to close down the BBCNews channel as they always seem to put it on BBC1 at same time WHY as BBCNews is available on sky freesat and freeview you dont need it on BBC1

  • 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?

  • u0421793 Ian K Tindale (@u0421793) reported from East Ham, England

    The Good, the Bad and The Ugly is just starting now on Paramount network freeview 32

  • StevenGothard Steven Gothard (@StevenGothard) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

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

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

    @nowtvhelp I still got my old with the built-in Freeview TV all that still work and I do I'll come back to you because I transferred my account to BT I Wish I Never now if that box doesn't work I have to buy my NOW TV stick from you?

  • 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

  • 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.

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

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

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

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • pIatformboot 🚬❣️ (@pIatformboot) reported

    cbbc shutting down is kind of sad for nostalgia reasons and cause that was like one of a handful of channels kids could watch on freeview

  • WezzRail Wez (@WezzRail) reported

    @PetroPablo3 @DitsyRedOne @beffybadbelly So circumstances can't change? They may have been able to afford the TV and simply use freeview rather than paying for a service...

  • IrishTV_films CCÉ FISÉ (@IrishTV_films) reported

    @BbcBring In NI there is potential to work with RTÉ to have RTÉ2 share with CBBC in replace of its TRTÉ/RTÉjr service. Even to put RTÉ2 +1 on Freeview there with CBBC sharing when its not on the air.

  • mldw235 Matt Wright (@mldw235) reported

    @AngelaMarston An awful decision. Can't help wondering if the BBC could have made a much better one somehow. Yes I know it will all be onlineetc but freeview has universal coverage.

  • BO3673 Phil (@BO3673) reported

    @renrag61 Times just move on. By your argument we’d never have moved to freeview.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @1066shrimprail Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview Reception. So, we can investigate this for you, can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

  • k0_shields 𝕜𝕠𝕕𝕚★ (@k0_shields) reported

    ano cbbc being axed is a pure meme n it’s no that deep or whatever but it actually kind is if u think abt it… like what are the poor kids who only have freeview supposed 2 watch when 1 of like 3 free kids channels r being taken off???? kinda sad tbh :( lil me would b cryin fr

  • eloiseaa728 eloise angharad (@eloiseaa728) reported

    @kennysmith21 @beffybadbelly No, on widely available freeview (i.e not on the local mux where tinypop lives) there are two: Pop (Arq A) and CITV (SDN), under the impression only CITV is in a similar market (age group) and is not a particularly good service… There is a reason CBBC dominates.

  • Pic889 Dimitris (@Pic889) reported

    @gerardjasper This begs the question: Since you can't receive the entirety of BBC's broadcasts through generic DVB-T2 equipment (you need a special "Freeview HD" receiver), why not encrypt the service and give subscribers a CAM module to watch it? Let's see how many really want to pay for it.

  • JohnLatchford John Latchford (@JohnLatchford) reported

    @RealMattLucas Poor decision. Of course that frees up a slot on Freeview for yet another channel showing repeats of ancient sitcoms - yet more Rising Damp anyone?
