    I love these Freeview updates. Each time I rescan the television I seem to lose additional channels! I'm down to QVC, Free Sports and That's 70s and it's only 3pm!

  • 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

  • Gav_Leaf Gav Leaf (@Gav_Leaf) reported

    @SyphinB @WrestlingHumble I think they're overestimating based on the viewing numbers vs the WWE The thing is, AEW is on Freeview TV. WWE is currently on the #2 Ranked Sports Subscription service in the UK. Even the network doesn't let you watch WWE live unless you have that Sub That effects the ratings

  • JamesMcGuckin2 Jim OnYourBike 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ☮️ NUM (@JamesMcGuckin2) reported

    If you want factual news watch Aljaazeera news on Freeview 285. If you want the Tory news watch BBC all about Jousting and lambs being born, a distraction from the real issues happening at home around the world. Your choice as an intelligent society.

  • StephenOld Stephen Old #ParodyPhantomOfThePinguwalda'sServant (@StephenOld) reported

    @couiza @PsychicSquirrel @virginmedia We have never watched TV from VM. Our TV has Freeview channels built in.

  • NigelRollings Nigel Rollings (@NigelRollings) reported

    @LesleyB58051421 It's been fine the last two days. This morning, when I switched it on at 10:27, it defaulted to Absolute Radio. I've given up and switched to Freeview for today but it's a dodgy signal!

  • BenJohn45874515 Ben Johnson (@BenJohn45874515) reported

    Sky, Virgin Media, BT, Talk Talk, Now TV, Freesat, Freeview. Any other telly service that I might have missed?

  • johnkcrouch John Crouch - Pro EU (@johnkcrouch) reported

    @virginmedia I distanced myself from your so-called service years ago, @virginmedia Sick of constant loss of broadband, unexplained loss of TV signal and dreadful customer support I switched to Freeview and Vodafone. I save enough each month to pay for a good night out and I am stress free.

  • JamesMartinTVR James Martin (@JamesMartinTVR) reported

    The other issue with the @bbceurovision geoblock is in normal years, the semis are on BBC Three; not available in HD in Scotland or Wales on Freeview. So these viewers have no way to watch in HD.

  • pifflevalve Jon 🎄 (@pifflevalve) reported from Warkleigh, England

    My dad: “I don’t think we’ve got that Tory news channel on the Freeview have we? I’ve never seen it” Me, to myself: “No, I delete it every time you ask me to do the channel rescan”

  • Savantfoxt Savantfoxt (@Savantfoxt) reported

    @KazzyAnnie1 I got fed up with Virgin internet dropping several times a day and the frequent sales calls. I switched to BT, 6 months later I haven't had a single outage or annoying sales call. Speed about the same but it depends on your area. Going freeview too is where I saved money.
