  • 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

  • jonnyhern Jonathan (@jonnyhern) reported from Pontypool, Wales

    @Thomoli @PhilipsCare_UK I’ve been waiting 8 weeks for same issue not worked for me since I bought my TV. I dont have an aeriel tho just satellite cable connected & internet but no catch up aps work or freeview

  • 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

  • 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.

  • uncriticalsimon Simon 🥑🚟🚅😈💉💉💉 (@uncriticalsimon) reported from Newport, Wales

    .@Freeview question - how come the PSB muxes aren’t treated equally? The BBC one and the HD one seem to have a much better signal from Wenvoe than the “normal” ITV one. (I can get Mendip off a random bit of metal.)

  • 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.

    Why is the BBC World Service so hard to obtain EXCEPT in the one area which is explicitly not the target audience? In the UK the World Service is available 24/7 on DAB and I think Freeview and Freesat/Sky.

  • 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)

    What is it with feeling like crap and the correlation with crap TV. Can't be doing with Netflix or films, but instead I'm in the depths of freeview staring at family fortunes and a place in the sun.

  • corniest2016 Alfred the Unicorniest (@corniest2016) reported

    @ttyEngland @PeachesBlooms @YardleyShooting From the horse’s mouth: ”A TV Licence covers you to: watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat) watch live on streaming services (e.g. ITVX, All 4, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Now, Sky Go) use BBC iPlayer*.” [1/2]

  • ChonjiGraham Graham Pitkin (@ChonjiGraham) reported

    @robbeckettcomic So not on Freeview? Can't. Oh well, never mind.

  • Jerry83560 Jeremy Goff #RejoinEU #FBPE #PRT (@Jerry83560) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice I have the #Freeview app on my phone, but no login seems to be required. So I now have a #Freeview equipped TV. Do both instances know it is me?

  • Enefes3 Enefes (@Enefes3) reported

    @markthehibby I can't even see any TV, let alone weather. Flipping Freeview is down. At least I have Smart TV.

  • wildetrousers Gert Wildetrousers (@wildetrousers) reported

    @domjoly Les Dawson is always being repeated on Freeview. WTF is that victim on about? Benny Hill on every night at the moment

  • Julesgw Jules W (@Julesgw) reported

    @beckyboopta Same in our house but with random Freeview channels (never the main ones) not movies. Judge Judy seems to be one of the faves… 🙄

  • DawsePaws dawse (@DawsePaws) reported

    Public service announcement: Am watching 'Kenny Everett New Year 1979' show on Freeview 'That's TV" chan 65. I think Bowie is on soon.

  • suzysasha elizabeth scott 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@suzysasha) reported

    @channel5_tv Thank goodness. Because TV over the holidays has been awful on all Freeview channels.

  • maisiemaria_ maisie (@maisiemaria_) reported

    So we don’t have a TV license because all we watch is Netflix, YouTube and Disney + but now I want to watch **** evening TV so I’m gonna get a license and freeview. Question: is freeview something I can pay for and download or do I need a box or whatever x
