    My @SkyUK box has frozen in a state of #wtf, using on/off/on/off does **** all, tv now gone to freeview and im out of my depth. And my man is sound asleep unwell, bless him. #SilenceIsGolden

  • nickhancock741 Nick Hancock 🇪🇺 (@nickhancock741) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @BoostTorbay @AndrewBrazier1 Never used the first two options. Very much old school. None of the fancy pants Sky or Virgin Media either. Just plain old Freeview for me

  • SydneyCityTV SydneyCityTV (@SydneyCityTV) reported

    @whophd @garethklose Yeah, the standard EIT (think I've got the technical term right there) 7 day EPG data is still being transmitted by all Australian networks last I checked. If the green button was a MHEG thing, then it was terminated on 24/11/2017 along with the rest of the Freeview EPG service.

    @Nettleshippy I don't know many people who only have four or five channels. In fact, I don't know any. Freeview has dozens. Licence payers don't get to dictate content; never have. It was one day. Making a formal complaint seems OTT

  • FNeedeth Fred Needeth (@FNeedeth) reported

    @Jake_Kanter @OwenJones84 Wow, I feel for people like you who can't afford cable, imagine just having channel 1,2,3,4 and 5. Did you know if you buy a digital ariel, freeview box or smart tv you can get loads of channels for free, might help with that pesky wall to wall coverage and give you an option?

  • Alan_S_Morrison Alan S. Morrison MBA MCIPR Accredited🖋️📸📢🥰🕸️ (@Alan_S_Morrison) reported from Forfar, Scotland

    @nowaffle Never more TV choices, even just on Freeview. No-one making anyone watch BBC.

  • thesponguy Neal Robertson (@thesponguy) reported

    Is there a problem in KY14, Freeview not working @bt_uk

  • Candidfloss Candidfloss (@Candidfloss) reported

    Is anyone else having reception problems on #SkyArts (Freeview 11)? It’s really spoiling the music!

  • DaggerYorkshire C&B⚔ (@DaggerYorkshire) reported

    @ch55648479 @MadRuberto_49 @BBCNews We're talking about the BBC. I pay to use the service and it didn't deliver for me. I'm unsure why Freeview is coming in to it.

  • diamondbadger Paul Fung (@diamondbadger) reported

    So, are we doing this? That’s right. #EmperorOfTheNorth live tweeting. Right now. @TalkingPicsTV Freeview channel 81. TONIGHT WE CARRADINE IN HELL (works written down)

  • jamespdrury James Drury (@jamespdrury) reported

    @hmd_db @TraceyRBurns @michaeljswalker Can you not read? Having no internet is not a barrier to choice, nothing poor about it... No, I don’t mind, it’s their editorial choice and if I didn’t want to watch I could watch something else (I did, on Freeview, not streamed) have a fine evening, not watching the BBC ;)

    @ghost_wales We`ve got freeview and a TV licence and that`s enough. Humum discovered Sky was crap nearly 20 years ago, still thinks the same !
