    @curryspcworld Just been into your Crewe store looking for a freeview box. 5 staff members fiddling with displays, me the only customer. Not one member of staff came to see if I needed help. Going elsewhere as you obvs don't need my custom.

  • Like47 Les Dawson and me #JC4PM2019 #LabourActivist (@Like47) reported from Manchester, England

    @gary_worden @cjssydney @cptcapitalg @FrogAlaPeche Poor people either don't have a TV or watch freeview.

    @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

    @LongCjlsackley1 I have Sky broadband & have very few problems. I got rid of Sky TV & now have Freeview. I also have Netflix & Amazon Prime but not all Progs even old stuff is free on Amazon.

  • SomhairleMM Somhairle Buidhe (@SomhairleMM) reported

    @oshaymoishe1 @alwaysresister 2 1/2, now you remind me - still have an old analogue portable with Freeview set-top box in case of emergency! Also 3 laptops, though that's not half as swanky as it might sound ;-) 1 work, 1 old & this one an embarrassingly bad waste of money... :-/

  • VoiceBritannia Broke Britannia (aka Voice Britannia) (@VoiceBritannia) reported

    You know what, #Wrestling is all over UK TV (freeview/FreeSat) but it's advertised terribly! Looking on the EPG today I found WWE NXT UK is on Paramount Network (Thurs), Impact Wrestling on 5star (sat) and PWC on Sports stuff TV (?). There used to be a lot more! #KeepLooking

  • Pauljohnsoneggs Paul Johnson (@Pauljohnsoneggs) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam Thanks for the info but resetting the box does not help. The new update and software installed is too much for these black boxes. Are you not releasing a better box to support such an update ? The 4k box doesnt have freeview, not sure why it's even a box..... thank you!

  • Doublemantis DoubleMANTIS (@Doublemantis) reported

    @TimProviseNZ @maoritv Managed to track down your appearance Freeview on Demand. Someone needs to give you a TV slot & stop wasting money on **** like Jono & Ben/ Guy Williams.

  • Katet282 Kate T (@Katet282) reported

    @NationalTheatre with our signal so bad for Sky Arts on Freeview channel11, such a shame you couldn’t broadcast on National Theatre at Home for your avid subscribers too. I’ve given up - too pixelated and jumpy for me to listen any longer 💔

  • MarkAPD43 Mark (@MarkAPD43) reported

    @SamuelJJack2 Food Network is the only decent channel on Freeview, what happened to Diners, Drive-ins and Dives?

  • agarethgates Not The Singer (@agarethgates) reported

    UK baseball fans let's face it @btsport clearly paid for a number of years' rights and are just seeing it out. They'll lose it like they did the NBA because they've blown all their money on Champions League and now the stupid WWE. Time to get a freeview box and MLBTV #OpeningDay

  • NOWHelpTeam NOW Help Team (@NOWHelpTeam) reported

    @petew2804 Hi Peter, Whether you've got a Smart Box with Freeview or a Smart Box with 4K and Voice Search, you'll find the reset button on the bottom of your Box. For a factory reset, hold the button down for about 6 seconds.
