  • 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

  • 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!!

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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..

  • 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 ****.....

  • 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.

  • karlmcintyre Karl McIntyre (@karlmcintyre) reported from St Helens, England

    @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.

  • 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

  • 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...😳

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • PaulEastlondon Paul Williams (@PaulEastlondon) reported

    @FreeviewTV any ongoing problems in CM15 area got no freeview channels at all

  • SimonDelafield Simon Delafield (@SimonDelafield) reported

    @talkRADIO @calvinrobinson @PatrickChristys As I understand it, the argument is that because of poor broadband the BBC can’t move to a Netflix like service at this time. But it could be a subscription platform on Freeview - they already exist. It doesn’t need to be on broadband to be a subscription service.

  • Barfette Barfette (@Barfette) reported

    @BlightyUK Totes agree, I do not usually watch GMB I watch Sky news on Freeview, BUT THAT morning I couldn't get a signal and was privy to the debacle. I thought he was a weatherman yet he was sitting beside the presenter the other day, ideas above his weather station methinks.

  • Kewjonrichard wife seeker (@Kewjonrichard) reported

    @roger44 @FreeviewTV No freeview signal in Swindon from 9pm don't change your settings this service is screwed up its about time they did the decent thing and apologies to everyone.

  • PeteLittle1970 Pete Little 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@PeteLittle1970) reported

    Ever noticed how these long adverts for mattresses you get on freeview the people never put any undersheets, covers, blankets or duvets on the bed? They just sleep, fully dressed, directly on top of their new mattress??

  • Kewjonrichard wife seeker (@Kewjonrichard) reported

    @FreeviewTV @JimIrvineUK It's late I shall protest to my mp and find out if there is a regulater. In meantime I shall collect newspaper emails and inform them how unreliable and what a terrible service you offer. I'm amazed how people advertise on freeview they need to know many can't see their adverts
