    @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.

    @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

  • 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

  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

    @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

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

    @TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

  • 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

  • shoxtl2 Carl (@shoxtl2) reported from Croydon, England

    @paulbristow79 @GBNEWS Do a Retune of your Freeview which should fix that problem , Freeview 236 GB News

  • bobbigmac Bob (@bobbigmac) reported

    The regular drizzle of news stories covering GBNews's failure to find an audience fills me with nothing but joy and hope. Turns out people over 60 have trouble retuning their freeview if their grandkids won't do it for them ;)

  • xoelizabeth26 Elizabeth Hague (@xoelizabeth26) reported

    @shabfelou @FreeNorthNow @itvhub 4 on demand is very bad tho... especially next to bbc and freeview

  • JamesMc50301897 James McPhee💙 (@JamesMc50301897) reported

    @scottygb It is crap, having watch games on freeview. Terrible to navigate, stops and starts.

  • MrsMummypennyUK Lynn Beattie (@MrsMummypennyUK) reported

    @IainJGeddes @RyanGosling @AliPlumb Ooohh yes def time to re-watch. It was on a random freeview channel a few nights ago, I got my fix.

  • musafirani sin (@musafirani) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi I used a coax cable to hook up my tv to my wall socket but the tv is not able to tune any channels freeview (it says no signal) - how do I fix this?

  • PoppyDog08 Al (@PoppyDog08) reported

    @mark_simpson @jamesrhamilton @floongle Sorry to interrupt, but I was scratching my head for ages when I got my Samsung 4K TV. Apparently they reckon it's a feature for "upscaling" SD pictures on the built-in Freeview tuner.,without realising it makes some SD channels look even more bad than they normally are.

  • sr4th joey--T-- (@sr4th) reported

  • Gargarin BLTP (@Gargarin) reported

  • Bill_Hogarth William Hogarth (@Bill_Hogarth) reported

    @gbnews Have you lowered the bit rate on your Freeview channel? It's stuttering and the lighting is also very poor. What on earth is going on? It's worse than a Skype call.
