  • 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.

    @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.

    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?

    @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

    @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

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

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

  • 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 😂

  • StevenGothard Steven Gothard (@StevenGothard) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

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

  • PERCANGL3 Narcos Alonso 🇸🇴 (@PERCANGL3) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Unironically, I genuinely think The best shows off Freeview TV (CBBC and CITV) would was any other network 10v10

  • keeperofstone Stone Keeper (@keeperofstone) reported

    @FABSITEUK Do you watch any TV? If you watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat), you need to be covered by a TV Licence.

  • rantyman Norbert Rantyman (@rantyman) reported

    All the BBC channels have gone from my Freeview…. Is this just my problem or anyone else finding this?

  • MagnaCartwheel Boudica .. The Original Essex Gel? .... or Anni ! (@MagnaCartwheel) reported

    @DeBarsham @cool_grandad @ragnorakishere Thats what I said ... the communist idiot doesnt believe history or the truth .....he needs to watch the type of footage I am now watching on "Yesterday" Freeview CH27.... then he will know the truth .. also "World at War"

  • skyblue_England skyblue_england ⬅︎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧 (@skyblue_England) reported

    @mrdanwalker @GaryLineker It’s time to end the license fee and allow viewers freedom of choice. With the plethora of subscription and Freeview program providers, it’s no longer necessary to have a government sponsored public service provider, with all the inherent issues about partiality that it brings.

  • UAhmed Usy (@UAhmed) reported

    @bluemoon_mcfc If BT or Sky get their **** together, creating their own show (of which they already have many) and releasing it immediately on a Freeview platform would be a winning move for them. They could even go the full way and employ linekar on it 😜

  • ammejo1 Ammejo (@ammejo1) reported

    @JosephScotland @OlafStar @TiceRichard Optional if you NEVER watch any live t.v on any device that includes YouTube Amazon Freeview Channel4 More4 And more Not very "optional" is it It's a tax to watch the telly plain and simple and is now outdated

  • Charleygirl76 Charlotte Norris (@Charleygirl76) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam Well all this tweeting these past 24 hours seems to be complete waste of time I'm sure you'll agree. No chat is going to help. The issue is clearly your end. Sort it! Thank god Oscars are on Freeview via Sky Arts. After the month I'll be canceling subscription. F'ing Useless!

  • steve44uk Stephen Bouchard (@steve44uk) reported

    @AceGerry @ShimonaGordon You need to be covered by a TV Licence if you watch live on any channel, TV service or streaming service - such as ITVX, All 4, YouTube, Sky, Virgin, BT, Freeview

  • WeHo_1985 Dennis (@WeHo_1985) reported

    @B2theRich It was dreadful. Three out of five is extremely generous. It's the type of terrible b-movie you see on a random Freeview channel at 2pm in the afternoon.
