  • RockcliffeFiles Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Werrington, England

    Warning, stupid question incoming, does a Freeview tele just simply plug into an old skool aerial?? My mum wants a new TV but doesn’t have cable. I’m assuming so? I’ve had cable since the early 90s so haven’t had to faff on with aerials for 30 odd years !!!

  • JoyAnneGarner Joy Garner (@JoyAnneGarner) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Anyone else having issues with Freeview etc today? ST6 area ?

  • Crewedaddy Richard Seamon (@Crewedaddy) reported from Crewe, England

    @james_blue_cat Can't afford any streaming service or the hardware upgrade to accommodate one. Freeview and iPlayer is enough. Didn't switch telly on Xmas day and Bob and Paul going fishing was my highlight.

  • kirstxxiv kirstylouise (@kirstxxiv) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Imagine how much of a Christmas miracle it would be if BBC3 came back to freeview number 7. I can picture it now, Gavin & Stacey returns and BBC3 makes a comeback. 25/12/19 would go down in history.

  • minxsterev helen kirk (@minxsterev) reported from Crewe, England

    @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.

  • MarkHolla Mark (@MarkHolla) reported

    Well after 7 years with @skytv looks like it's time to leave. Bill jumping from £68 to £94. Even the basic package if I removed cinema and sports is still £50. **** that. I'll go back to freeview. #Sky @SkyHelpTeam

  • Woodydryad Sally Wood (@Woodydryad) reported

    @The_East_End @LeeHurstComic Yep, over this way too. Even getting "white outs" on the TV set and neighbour had to add a dongle thingy to keep her laptop signal boosted enough to do course work. Guy who runs the shop who lives elsewhere, he says hes missing freeview channels, while i dont get any BBC at all

    @Livalab With regards to the guide on the Freeview app, you can still get the next programmes up on the TV guide by pressing the icon made of variously sized horizontal lines on the top left corner of the guide. As for +1 versions of the BBC channels, that would be down to the BBC.

  • Dogglllzzz eyerish seadog (@Dogglllzzz) reported

    @BBCBreakfast Why are us in the North-East of England seeing the London local news on freeview? #Fail

  • MelinJack D (@MelinJack) reported

    @S4C @virginmedia Yeah had the update but still not working, it hasn’t now for the last 3 or 4 live games, it must be a Virgin problem as I said freesat and freeview working, never mind I’ll stay with the Welsh language it’s fine

  • FalaCatsco Catherine (@FalaCatsco) reported

    @AgentP22 According to STV it's shows like Coronation Street etc, Albas figures are an impressive 530,000 adult viewers a week when it became available on Freeview and Virgin media, how odd. Their average viewing time is an hour and 40 mins? Never watched Alba, lot of Sports apparently.

  • tweetSP0RT tweetSP0RT (@tweetSP0RT) reported

    @Ste15375723Mark @MartinSLewis @GMB FWIW I think most likely outcome is the licence fee will be kept as the least worst option. Advertising is non-starter as it would destroy ITV/C4/C5's revenue. Subscription isn't possible for Freeview/radio. Bundling in with tax would be spun badly for the gov.

  • Welshlass1962 Maggie Ikin (@Welshlass1962) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam That was when Sky tv was value for money! I left Sky last year because you could only offer a measly £2 per month discount for a customer who had been with you for over 20yrs! And I don’t miss Sky at all…..on FREEview now!

  • HelenParkins Helen Parkins (@HelenParkins) reported

    @sallythomsett Hahaha ! Cutting it a bit fine- typical ! Hope he has resolved the problem. There's a brill new drama about the Mitford sisters on right now, on freeview 20- it's called "Outrageous." xxx
