    @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

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • 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.

  • sospainter 🅿🅰🆄🅻 🅲🅾🅻🅻🅸🅴🆁 (@sospainter) reported from Whyteleafe, England

    @IanSlaterPhoto1 @VixThatRuns I have a sizeable Samsung. Ditched Virgin Media, the plan was to have Freeview. The tv doesn’t support Freeview!

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

    Time for the BBC to close down the BBCNews channel as they always seem to put it on BBC1 at same time WHY as BBCNews is available on sky freesat and freeview you dont need it on BBC1

  • cycleoptic cycleoptic💙💚 (@cycleoptic) reported from Islington, England

    @jock_savage @ruskin147 This licence lets you use and install receiving equipment at the licensed place. watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat) watch live on streaming services (e.g. ITVX, All 4, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Now, Sky Go)

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @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

  • flowergirl_lon Sam (Flower Girl) Jennings (@flowergirl_lon) reported from Croydon, England

    @GeorgeBollands @gemoore83 @BBCSport Ok… I have Now tv so don’t think I can get that but I’ll have a look. My regular freeview is crap as I don’t have an aerial, only have internet streamed TV.

  • 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?

  • AStrangerJ A.j. Stranger #UTAG (@AStrangerJ) reported from Bromley, England

    On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

  • ahappystitcher Sally-Jane 💙💛🌻 (@ahappystitcher) reported

    @DianeHaywood71 I know. Our lounge TV doesn't work without WiFi as the internal freeview box dies ages ago and we have to use a firestick for that. It's never ending this no WiFi lark ... 🙄

  • liamdilley Liam Dilley (@liamdilley) reported

    @drmichaelhooper There used to be the freeview app to watch live tv but all the companies wanted their own apps. They started with no sign in, then facebook, then removing that to capture more.

  • CraziCatLady Emma (@CraziCatLady) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi, if i cancel sky tv can i still use the box to watch freeview?

  • BigGoonerMal Mal McGar (@BigGoonerMal) reported

    @hitinman ALWAYS issues with Freeview, they just tell you to retune 3 or 4 times then say you equipment is at fault. Never their bad service!

  • maycomedy may thompson (@maycomedy) reported

    hate is a strong word but those freeview play adverts with the aliens warrant it i really hate them and their stupid biscuits

  • JohnTurner2021 John Turner (@JohnTurner2021) reported

    @MiserygutsPetty Because of the temperature. Hot temps and high pressure will **** a Freeview signal without even buying it a drink first.

  • thatbloke6 MrpaulT (@thatbloke6) reported

    @BBCWorld Still 3times cheaper then the bbc which you aren't allowed to leave even if you never watch bbc but have freeview you must pay.. The BBC is dead Long live the BBC It's subject's must obey

  • dolphino45 jackie hayes (@dolphino45) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Help my freeview has gone down . We have had nothing for a few days. We have retuned and bought a new aerial. Now getting fed up Help

  • swinksnz Logan Swinkels 🎙🏒🎮 (@swinksnz) reported

    @AndrewP32596916 @ESPNAusNZ Otherwise, the game is also on Māori TV. I don’t have Freeview, so the ESPN app using a Sky Go login is the only way.
