    @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

  • 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.

  • 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😡

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

    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

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

    @bt_uk I got a problem it's not my fault and it's not BT issue I lost a lot of Freeview channels in my flat I went to no cancel and said you can have a dish because aerials are very bad in your area where you live we've had a lot of people coming to us about the same problem

  • twitdwood David Woodley (@twitdwood) reported

    @GBNEWS you still have a video/audio sync problem on Freeview! @afneil

  • glovelace Graham Lovelace (@glovelace) reported

    @jennypriestley @GBNEWS Wonder if same issues on Freeview?

  • geekjamesh Geek (@geekjamesh) reported

    @LDubSimon @GaryLineker I had that on the iPad while the football was on the big screen. On anything more than a 10” screen the ITV3/4 freeview picture quality was so bad I couldn’t see the ball half the time!

  • tez95852118 tez (@tez95852118) reported

    @selwynfrogit @peter151120011 @GBNEWS Oh, bugger. It’s crap on freeview.

  • dvarets Alexei Romanov (@dvarets) reported

    @GuidoFawkes Poor picture quality on Freeview is a bit of a let down.

  • agw1437 A.G.W. 🇬🇧 (@agw1437) reported

    @GBNEWS gen qu for techie types: Why is there a synchronisation problem from the studio but not on the live video links? I’m watching on freeview - does that make a difference? Very curious but keep it simple - I’m a historian not IT.

  • liarpoliticians Liarpoliticians, UK has rogue Parliament+police (@liarpoliticians) reported

    @Basil2744 @GBNEWS I can confirm that @GBNews has an audio problem. BBC Breakfast / BBC News average at about -6db, GB News is a lot lower (approx -10dB).. add to that problem, it is lower volume on Freeview than on Freesat in HD - I don't know why, they should be virtually the same. #GBNews

  • ChrisTheDJ Chris Merriman (@ChrisTheDJ) reported

    Oh and the picture quality is awful - fuzzy on Freeview, and on the wrong framerate on Sky.

  • daphnewheeler15 Daphne Wheeler (@daphnewheeler15) reported

    @CatharineHoey @GBNEWS It all sounds just my sort of news BUT @afneil please tell me how to listen on my aged diggy box freeview in Lewes I tried all evening without any luck. Help Please.

  • GlynFordTV Glyn Ford Broadcast (@GlynFordTV) reported

    @TomSykesMedia Sorry, tried watching Lunch 12-13:00, and a bit of Breakfast on freeview recording. Looks like they have confused “Test” with “Launch” days? Technically very poor and unwatchable. See you later….. off to watch paint dry…..
