  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

  • DamienAshton Damien Ashton-Wellman (@DamienAshton) reported from Birmingham, England

    Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

    Good news,I've retuned my telly and picked up 14 channels. Bad news,they're still glitchy. #freeview #BilsdaleFail

  • xenathecat1 xena the cat (@xenathecat1) reported

    Hooman is finding new things out living in this small town. The big Tesco extra doesn't open before 7am, Amazon, deliveroo, just eat etc don't deliver here, there's no buses after 6.30om & the tv and mobile signal is very poor. Hooman can only get 45 freeview channels here.

    @FreeviewAdvice No freeview signals in Swindon SN3 area, Is the signal down?

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    With a rising British star it's important her finals are accessible free to air. Eurosport may use Quest for them, but they're likely to lose their HD channel soon thanks to slow and regressive progress on switching Freeview to HD.

    @GMB @susannareid100 Cancel Sky for starters. Loads of good stuff on Freeview. Those £60 trainers little Chantelle wants? Don't buy them. Cook from scratch. Get a big bag of spuds and a tin of corned beef and do potato hash. Live within your means.

  • wbxcvi Bert (@wbxcvi) reported

    @RealFibb @marcwatson7 Still got this Sky in the house never updated still the same. Same freeview box from 2001.

  • christt C.J. Thorpe-Tracey ⧖ (@christt) reported

    It’s weird that there are five or six miserable 24hr news channels on freeview but not one 24hr sports news channel. There’s a big gap right there for a broadcaster to pivot their stupid 24hr cycle from ‘relentlessly depressing’ to ‘relentlessly (mostly) uplifting and fun’.

  • VIPlatinum Bill O (@VIPlatinum) reported

    @neil1886 @ChrisHazzardSF The RTE Freeview signal is not good enough for large swathes of the country to watch RTE.

  • GrandOld_Grumpy Chris Williams (@GrandOld_Grumpy) reported

    @Jo_IsABitch Not a fan of that charlatan! Saw him whilst flipping through the religious channels on freeView here, the first time we got the service. Saw his audience, realised really rapidly, he was in it for the money, nothing else! Easy life being given 10+% of everyone’s hard earned money

  • MaffyBoon MF (@MaffyBoon) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice retuning does nothing.. no channels! Looking at the local forums many people are experiencing the same. Can you comment on actual service status in the SG11 area? Information on tuning my Freeview box is useless if there are no services...
