  • Davidp1103 David-19 (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @TalkTalk It would be nice if you could reduce or remove a £40 charge for an engineer who called but made no inspection of equipment, explained that Freeview channels had been altered; a fact that your customer services were not aware of, but should have known.

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    @Forces_TV hi guys having a few problems with your freeview picture in London it freezes or breaks up had it since Friday

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • Davidp1103 Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @Complyorcry @Back_Two_Mee To @TalkTalk they are okay but the broadband is not a good as VM but it's okay; it cut the monthly bill in half. I have since dropped their tv service and bought a freeview recorder. Monthly bill for broadband/phone £38

  • 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?

  • LexFuturus LexFuturus (@LexFuturus) reported from Longfield, England

    Terrible streaming quality via YouTube! @btsport should have made it freeview #UCLfinal

  • timbirds1 Tim Salisbury (@timbirds1) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV Watched it on Freeview , as the Sky , not working.

  • DyslebrityDawg Raulstrebo aka Don-Paul ap Arfon 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@DyslebrityDawg) reported

    @Seraph7th I have only ever seen a couple of minutes of Dog Soldiers. It was on a freeview channel a few months ago. Low budget British horror movie, no thank you. I still harbour 'issues' with low budget British film producers, they didn't want my screenplays, except James Atherton LOL

  • PoppyDog08 Al (@PoppyDog08) reported

    @TPTVEncore The new Freeview service is superb. Thanks. Interestingly, on my new Samsung TV the Encore prompt is on even during ad breaks. There's no way to get rid of it. It doesn't show at all on my Humax Freeview Play box yet works fine.

  • JohnTurner2021 John Turner (@JohnTurner2021) reported

    @TPTVEncore @TalkingPicsTV Incredibly slow loading on a Panasonic Viera 49ES500. Even with the cache files preloaded. Also, no indication that the red button has been pressed to show the app is actually loading. All other Freeview+ services working fine.

  • Mac_WiFi Andrew McHale (@Mac_WiFi) reported

    @TheCMReed @Potato_Fi @TurtleBeach Nope, no change 😫 POV1 is “stuck” in freeview mode so I can’t do things like select the throttle in training mode. I’m guessing this isn’t an issue on yours then which gives me hope for a fix from TB

  • DJGaryBaldy DJGaryBaldy 🎧 (@DJGaryBaldy) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV Was it Forces TV who showed them before it shut down I know they've been on TV not so long back as I recorded them on my old Freeview PVR

  • tanurai Tanya Fish (@tanurai) reported

    @em_cooper Read your book backlog instead. Pretend you're on holiday with a crap aerial and freeview, the only choices being Bargain Hunt or a repeat of A Home In The Sun.

  • ladderack Jenny (@ladderack) reported

    No channel 83? Do all the obvious checks retune still not working? @Freeview

  • 46Ruthie Whyamidoingthis. (@46Ruthie) reported

    @itvnews maybe the younger people should cancel all tv subscriptions & make do with freeview,reduce nights out, they don’t need new clothes, Want, Need ,Afford.

  • spookyoyster1 spookyoyster (@spookyoyster1) reported
