  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • Stuart_1992 Stuaгt (@Stuart_1992) reported

    @petemorristwit I still have the same issue with Freeview. At least with analogue you could receive a poor signal instead of one that breaks up completely. I'm so glad we have a satellite dish now.

  • Ajkiwi AJ Johnson (@Ajkiwi) reported

    Wait. I've been talking to workmates, & it turns out that people who don't have vodafoneTV (RIP) or old mysky: (a) watch freeview LIVE with ADVERTS (wtf) (b) or ONLY watch things on streaming (c) and just accept they can't record+rewind TV (d) use an aerial or sat dish. REALLY?

  • queenb57330198 queenb (@queenb57330198) reported

    @Van7212 I did the same a while ago, much cheaper to get the streaming services you want and an excellent broadband service. The kids were fine, they never watch anything live. sky news etc are on freeview anyway.

  • dearaunty .Dear Aunty (@dearaunty) reported

    A movie on freeview - The Columnist - 2019... ''Femke'.. is flooded with threats, harassment and negative comments on social media but becomes addicted to the attention & eventually decides to hunt down the trolls'' Wonder where they got that idea from....*thinks*

  • haydenraw Hayden Raw (@haydenraw) reported

    Would be cool if @vodafoneNZ did a software update on the VodafoneTV units just prior to them being shut down that turned them into an untethered Freeview/internet TV hub.

  • alliethinks Allie Nickell (@alliethinks) reported

    @AtcherleyONS I’m not a Netflixer (or a Disney Channeller, etc,…) so will have to wait till it reappears on Freeview or treat myself to the dvd. I had IMDB open while I watched :-D.

  • lexiblackbriar 𝕝𝕖𝕩𝕚 ❄️🧣 (@lexiblackbriar) reported

    YES i have avengers on DVD and on disney+ now but they be showing it on a random weekday at 3pm on a freeview channel? you bet i'm sitting my *** down and watching it

  • stevend43829773 Stevend43829773 (@stevend43829773) reported

    @UKBabeChannels But why did studio 66 TV decided to close the service on Freeview, I loved watching studio 66 TV especially when Georgie Darby appeared on it and preeti_young also appeared on it too, but Preeti decided to leave S66 TV and when onto BS TV instead, tweet back to me

  • OsullivanUk Mike O'Sullivan (@OsullivanUk) reported

    @googlenesthelp Hey Google... No, nothing like that at all. Just an old (Humax) Freeview recorder, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and a (non-smart) Panasonic blu-ray player. All powered off at time of issue. Couple of other people raised it as issue a few days ago on the Google TV forum also.
