  • DaveBStDW Dave Bowden (@DaveBStDW) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bt_uk Hi Aaron, I am in complete disbelief as to how long this takes to resolve. I don’t care who resolves it & not my problem he’s not in. I’m paying full price for freeview! I demand compensation and a quick resolve as this is just embarrassing for @bt_uk

  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

  • oitappin Dan Tappin (@oitappin) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @DooHopper Pick will be an interesting case, no hd an awful picture on Freeview, good slot number but not much heft from Sky to push it.

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

    @jssnowden @rudadu57 No, I think it is on one of the Freeview channels but I have never switched it on.

  • MissJerichoY2J Miss Jericho (@MissJerichoY2J) reported

    @wwe_wwf_Junkie Is this like when Dave tried to compare AEW and WWE numbers from the UK - not mentioning that AEW is on freeview and WWE is on an expensive subscription service?

  • BBQMeatLovers Janni A(long last name) (@BBQMeatLovers) reported

    @7AFL Dude. My Freeview TV isn’t getting a proper signal. Soo rip for me

  • Prof_Nostalgia Prof Nostalgia (@Prof_Nostalgia) reported

    @isykes79 @FreeviewAdvice Freeview can't do anything but report on Arquiva's progress, who have hit a view legal snags along the way. We, as far down as Filey, will be the last to see a good signal. This area is notoriously bad for TV reception so we've gone for Freesat.

  • brianwinteruk Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England

    @scottygb Shouldn't be any shunt on Freeview either as 7 was never reallocated.

  • pikminlover mellymelmelmel (@pikminlover) reported

    @TomDGreen @scottygb Actually - my bad - I read Freesat as Freeview. It's on Freeview for sure.

  • DaveAMarsh David Marsh (@DaveAMarsh) reported

    Anyone else in Sheffield got a complete @freeviewtv outage since last week? #freeview

  • Gary1609 Gary (@Gary1609) reported

    @Bbmorg I support no license thereby giving choice for those who want to watch the other Freeview channels but not BBC the right and freedom to do so. In an age of thousands of channels,& streaming,a license should not forced. I hold the same view regardless of which party is in Govt.

  • SketchLisa Lisa Harding (@SketchLisa) reported

    @cawalton7 Problem is I didn’t know she wanted the play side of things so I got her to buy the cheapest freeview box. Bugger

  • _superhans Hannah (@_superhans) reported

    @PaulBobbiFett Evening Paul, hope your freeview situation is sorted now? Just having a quiet weekend as I’ve got an essay due next week eek! It’s such a catchy song isn’t it. Poor Sarah 😔
