  • iainsykes2014 Iain Sykes (@iainsykes2014) reported from Blackburn, England

    @KarmaUnc @GMB @joshwiddicombe Yes, but the BBC is a significant contributor to Arquiva who own the masts. They also support Freeview and Freesat.

  • johnworthy27 john worthington (@johnworthy27) reported from Preston, England

    @chloesammike @andywigmore @KayBurley Don't worry you can still get Sky news on channel 132 on your Freeview box. Thick ****.....

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    @drewhill79 @VodafoneUK @MattJConnor @StHKHIS Same here. BT got the 150 mb and it flies. Good support and I stream everything!! Don’t even have normal freeview.

  • Toffeewolfie Philip whitehurst (@Toffeewolfie) reported from Liverpool, England

    @rlwjones @Nick_Metcalfe @MarkyBunny They made one champions League game per round free to air..usually the crap games though..they used to have a channel on Freeview..

  • bulldogbyrne julie byrne (@bulldogbyrne) reported from Hindley, England

    Why do I keep paying for TV service which is shit @BTGroup I get better service on indoor freeview aerial

  • Robbo72uk Andy Roberts (@Robbo72uk) reported from Southport, England

    Virgin tv and broadband gone down yet again. Resorting to Freeview right now. The picture quality is actually much better than Virgin...AND no glitches and constant picture breakup!!

  • groovicat groovicat 💚 (@groovicat) reported from Adlington, England

    @Sillyshib Heartbeat, ssshhh, it's never been off. You can watch Heartbeat every day on freeview

  • 2013jamiepep James Pepperd (@2013jamiepep) reported from St Helens, England

    I don't have an ariel or freeview I rely on your piece of shit @virginmedia #VirginMedia

  • richard__webb Richard Webb (@richard__webb) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @GBNEWS i was so looking forward to it. But… on freeview the picture quality is really poor, sound is out of sync, and just feels like the sets are dark and badly lit. Took my focus away from listening to whats being projected. #GBNews

  • annmurphy_wigan Ann Murphy (@annmurphy_wigan) reported from Wigan, England

    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

    @BBCTeesSport Now wasn’t the time to realise that our Freeview still doesn’t work and we’re not in an area covered by any local radio signal at the moment 🙄

  • RichieUK_TTV RichieUK (@RichieUK_TTV) reported

    @NOWMusic Hey if you insist in having a music channel on Freeview can you please make sure the audio bitrate doesn’t sound garbage? The compression is painful

  • mark_simpson Mark Simpson 🏳️‍🌈 (@mark_simpson) reported

    @keithbelfast @rte It never has been before and they stream it internationally so I think you'll be ok. Stream sometimes struggles so Sky/Freeview would be best...

  • neill_mckeown Neill McKeown (@neill_mckeown) reported

    @2020YNWAP Via freeview need to be able to get the Saorview signal etc

  • CupcakeBlaker Linda Blaker (@CupcakeBlaker) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice not getting any Freeview channels in BN16. Gone from 148 TV channels to just 14. What is going on. HELP

  • GlenMitchell1 Glen Mitchell 🐝 🇪🇺🌹🌈 (@GlenMitchell1) reported

    @alastairjam Yeah we’ve just never moved cause Rob had them historically but won’t be staying now. Freeview is killing me.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    @smurph25 @cleanfeed_ttvr Until earlier on, the slot was showing a Saorview information video. 544x576 SD, same resolution as Sky News on Freeview.

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @_MrRLC Hi Richard, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview reception. So we can look into this can you please provide your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

  • BGhattaure BubblesG (@BGhattaure) reported

    @MoneySavingExp SKY’s charges are ridiculous! Who watched 999 channels? You try to cancel 1 subscription but you can’t as you’re tied into another one; so you end up purchasing the whole package - it’s a rip off!! I’m currently researching into Freeview.@skytv

  • torkingt1 Trevor (@torkingt1) reported

    Watching ‘The Silent Enemy’ on Freeview. Must be the only black and white war film I’ve never seen before.
