  • thelobsterboy Paul Smith (@thelobsterboy) reported from Manchester, England

    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

  • jamestestarossa James Turner (@jamestestarossa) reported

    @bt_uk Not a freeview issue. Picture is currently doing it and the Home menu is not viewable due to the distortion so unable to check signal strength. Plugged aerial in direct to TV and absolutely fine.

  • sophiejdalston ///expired ferrania/// 📸 (@sophiejdalston) reported

    @AllieDocious @SloaneFragment Freeview boxes still work I think so that would enable a digital signal to be played on an analogue tv, but the question is how they connected it.

  • jon_2096 JP (@jon_2096) reported

    @petercrouch BBC1 is HD on Freeview, which is free, and it's also the first channel. Sky is the problem, not BBC!

  • wewatchu2 Dan On Stolen Land (@wewatchu2) reported

    @victoria_racing I had a weird one from a service group but to do with Kogan lack of service. Can't see Optus in this unless someone is listening. Or reading..all I want is an app fix. Not paying for fixing freeview

  • vnlbeans VNLbeans (@vnlbeans) reported

    @Chr1stop4 @skytv Yep. My Sky Q isn’t working. Been with 20+ years. Tried to phone 3 times now 55 min wait, 40 min wait and 45 mins tonight. It’s unacceptable. Next call will be to cancel, Freeview, Disney and Netflix will be fine for me since they can’t be bothered.

  • Julianlzb87 Julian Stephenson (@Julianlzb87) reported

    @ushasundaram @zombie_nun Don't stop watching just them. Never watch anything on the first page of the Freeview guide. It's a minor hassle but skipping down to The Smithsonian of PSB is worth it.

  • FactsStomp Phil's Train and Retro Life (@FactsStomp) reported

    @JHenryHardy @a516digital I honestly don't understand why anybody would watch the funeral coverage in ultra low resolution on the Sky owned Freeview channels rather than on BBC 1,2 or ITV (even in SD)

  • andy_eastfield Andy (@andy_eastfield) reported

    @MintRoyale My next door neighbours Freeview went down, so you can take one off that number for a start.

  • wurzel260654 Sarah , Lucy,Nella and Wurzel . (@wurzel260654) reported

    @Stephen87495131 @SkyNews They will. So pay tv needs to go Nothing wrong with freeview. Don't buy or take contracts out on the dearest ipads. The Government help for utilities should have been means tested and increased. 100% increase is unaffordable. Food prices are rising especially essential foods.
