    @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

  • 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)

  • 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?

    @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.

  • 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.

    @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

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

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • wheatln2 nigel (@wheatln2) reported

    @PeterMcGuireIE Alternative is to go down the route of a NordVPN connection which usually works with BBC iPlayer and ITV. And then use the Irish TV on-demand services. I love have a TV with that ability to jump between the stations! Film4, BBC3, Sky Arts, Sky News, CNN all available on freeview

  • Superdeformer_ PS (@Superdeformer_) reported

    Virgin Media have written to us to let us know our bill is going up to £79. We only have the basic channels. Will be looking to cancel next month. We watch mostly Freeview channels anyway. Just need to find a good broadband provider (who supply a decent router)?

  • lexheath lexheath (@lexheath) reported

    @BBCNews just had a message on freeview that had is going - this is a huge mistake, I’ve already stopped watching bbc breakfast because the cut to local news gives that tedious message, also never watch local news as it’s ld, itv is all in hd so they’ve won

  • I_Returneth Stephen(insert appropriate virtue signalling flag) (@I_Returneth) reported

    Really starting to think the TV Licence isn't worth it anymore. No not because of the usual childish reason that "I don't like what's on BBC1" but because of the COM7 signal being so degraded now with the 5G takeover we're getting 2nd Class Freeview and channels are vanishing.

  • dearaunty .Dear Aunty (@dearaunty) reported

    .@ITV James Bond 'Tomorrow Never Dies' now showing on freeview - who decided to censor scenes in this, & why?

  • Jeffery22748212 Jeffery (@Jeffery22748212) reported

    Did you know a decision is to be made in the next 8 years that will see the demise of freeview. No more tv received via an aerial on the house. Meaning that you will have to pay a subscription for an online streaming service. Backdoor privatisation of the bbc!

  • SteveSonLad109 Sausage🍀🐯 (@SteveSonLad109) reported

    @Deji500 Dreadful take this, Poindexter. One of the single worst and ignorant tweets I’ve ever read. Slam on the 10 minute freeview and have a tug, you daft get.

  • NickHackett2 Nicholas (@NickHackett2) reported

    @MisterTimmr1 As for sports I ment watching them not playing them, for hiking there’s kilvey hill spelt it wrong but type in to Google with word Swansea you see it. It has a tower on it for freeview coverage which is ok. in my area it’s bad. Singleton park has music events on

  • derek500 Derek (@derek500) reported

    @afneil Just found out the BBC News is losing its HD slot on Freeview (107) next month and will only be available further down the EPG on 231 along with GB News and Talk TV. May impact its figures.

  • JaymezStevie Stevie Jaymez (@JaymezStevie) reported
