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

  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @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

  • MikeBates04 Mike 🇬🇧 #Britishindependent (@MikeBates04) reported from Manchester, England

    I love these Freeview updates. Each time I rescan the television I seem to lose additional channels! I'm down to QVC, Free Sports and That's 70s and it's only 3pm!

  • UKtodayUK 442 days to flatten the curve (@UKtodayUK) reported

    How weird is that the TV said you need to retune your Freeview in which I've had no problem in Bournemouth with 4 years so reaching the TV and bass you're on left with this ******* BBC C1 BBC2 ITV channel 4 and Channel 5 all the ******* **** I don't watch

  • Doctor_of_Music Mike Coe (@Doctor_of_Music) reported

    Living in a remote location, we only have a 'public service' Freeview transmitter, with restricted channels. Dense woodland to the east means no satellite TV reception, & there is no 'cable'. Therefore I have discovered with some pleasure that I will be unable to receive @GBNews

  • MichaelCJDavid Michael (@MichaelCJDavid) reported

    @ivorsawbottom This needs to be good, Ivor. I’m holding you personally responsible for the lousy Freeview TV signal, I’m getting from the transmitter, at Rowridge, on Paradise Island. It just won’t do, you know.

  • adamwhumphreys Adam neu Adda (@adamwhumphreys) reported

    **** sake man, hate having to use BBC iPlayer to was the game because there's a bit of a delay on it. Found out about the goal on Twitter 20 seconds before it happened. (Also, I am watching it on S4C, but I gotta go through BBC iPlayer to get it cos I can't pick up Freeview).

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @UKtodayUK Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview channels. So we can look into this further for you can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number. Thanks, Dylan.

  • don_mac D Mac (@don_mac) reported

    @Danny_McMoomins Its going to be able on Freeview 643 or something even after the **** grot channels. The daytime TV Gammon's will never reach it too many world war 2 docs, reruns of lovejoy and homes under the hammer to skip through first.

  • josierustle josie 💛🤍💜🖤 (@josierustle) reported

    ahhhhhhhg this part of hotel-staying where crap 00s true crime documentaries on the freeview is all there is to entertain

  • Charles10545180 Charles West (@Charles10545180) reported

    We are all urged to support England in Euro 2020 , but I seem to remember that those of us that only had freeview T V were not allowed to watch our national team in the UEFA Nations League not so long ago, funny how things change.

  • orkitecht85 sparky t k o (@orkitecht85) reported

    @GraceOnFootball I confess I had been exclusively using the free-to-air TV apps on my NOW TV box, until I realised that hanging my Freeview aerial on my drying rack relieved that issue.

  • Michael80789776 Michael CLARK (@Michael80789776) reported

    @ShiregreenOwl @teresadg0 The online services are definitely a big contributor, I agree. But a dedicated 24 hr news service on Freeview is far more accessible for many, and that will have an impact
