    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?

    @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

  • 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 😂

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

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

  • tashatam14 tashatam (@tashatam14) reported

    @benonwine Get plenty of practice here in rural Devon, where the power and internet go off quite regularly, and many of us have no mobile signal at all (or mains sewage, decent water pressure, gas, public transport, road repairs, freeview signal - you name it, we don't have it)

  • anotheriain another iain (@anotheriain) reported

    No, Freeview box, I *never* want to record this programme in HD instead of SD, why do you keep asking me?

  • Homerbhoy Ray (@Homerbhoy) reported

    @WeAreSTV Can someone advise me how I can create a STV freeview account. The website only seems to allow account holders to login but not register.

  • pandorasrockbox Miryam Pan D'ora Rae ~ PandorasRockBox (@pandorasrockbox) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice freeview Crystal palace not working? I have no signal at all. Don't watch much especially since RT NEWS gone but wanted to see what's on: NOW NO SIGNAL. BTW i am shocked freeview removed RT . I called ofcom & they said it was free view who removed it NOT ofcom

  • t_witterer t_witterer (@t_witterer) reported

    @MartinSLewis @bbc5live Cancelled mobile contract and Disney+ so far, will just use Wifi and have freeview channels. Have nothing else to cancel. Considering getting train to work & hoping no ticket inspectors as can no longer fuel, this is serious last straw now.

  • SummerCrush10 Sam Norris (@SummerCrush10) reported

    @KeepUpWithKFabe In the UK you can pay to watch The AEW PPV's on the night or wait an extra until it goes onto the FREE Channel ITV (which you don't have to pay to watch on Freeview or Sky) but you have to pay to watch it if using their ITV Hub catch up service.

  • princessmel_87 𝕄 𝔼 𝕃 👑 (@princessmel_87) reported

    @InJDWeStan Don't have anything. Except 6mths free disney+as changed my o2 contract & lowered cost. Only ever get prime when they email for free or 99p a week offer. With not working for past year and half, got be careful. Got freeview otherwise

  • happyborg happyborg: decentralising & democratising (@happyborg) reported

    @RadioTimes Thx. Lenovo Android tablet with latest Firefox. Clicking Freeview (or other things) causes the display to flicker repeatedly very fast, and I can see the text briefly "server error" between the screens it is displaying. I'm now using the freeview website tv guide without problem

  • MrZackwood Zack, Zack & Zack (@MrZackwood) reported

    ITV down on freeview for anyone else?
