  • 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

    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!

  • hollybuddy01 Jon S. Robb (@hollybuddy01) reported

    Freeview Anyone else having problems with receiving a signal? I cannot get anything not even radio?

  • dazzalaa17 Dazzalaa (@dazzalaa17) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Freeview in the Yorkshire provided by Arqiva is probably the worst service I have ever encountered! Constantly moving and deleting channels you can't keep up! Clubland TV and Now 90's completely disappeared from channel 271? And that is just the start!

  • GlobalClarity1 South East Sean (@GlobalClarity1) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Neither. The Freeview is so bad in my area I will be watching it via other means

  • NausicaasPsyche NausicaasPsyche (@NausicaasPsyche) reported

    no, resetting your smart tv will not fix your catch up issues. -reload your freeview stations. -enter your passwords. -that's the wrong password (no it's not netflix). -log into your email to reset your password. -reenter your password. do not try this at home 😭😭

  • ThatsTVCumbria That's TV Cumbria (@ThatsTVCumbria) reported

    Freeview viewers may need to retune to receive the new service. For help you can speak to a real person by calling the Freeview Advice Line: 03456 50 50 50 (9am-5pm Mon-Fri standard landline call cost)

  • JehnnyDangerou1 Jehnny Dangerously (@JehnnyDangerou1) reported

    @scotland_ewan @MrFlibble72LFC I never watch the Morning shows & I’ve almost completely stopped watching the news now too. I think I’ve seen all of Freeview’s arsenal at least x10 times over each. I will have to get Sky 🙄

  • Gooner_AK Andy Kelly 🌍 (@Gooner_AK) reported

    Praying that Virgin Media don't have network issues later so we have to watch the game on Freeview on the TV in the bedroom.

  • bha4p Andy⁴p⚪️💙 🚯 (@bha4p) reported

    FFS, given up on @virginmedia to get a decent picture of the match on BBC1 HD. Terrible signal, reset the box and everything. such a pity. I guess they can't handle the demand or maybe someone near me extended their cable themselves this afternoon. Freeview for the match it is

  • Gooner725 Deep (@Gooner725) reported

    @BBCiPlayer Hi - can one of your technical staff explain why iPlayer is unable to pass a basic 5.1 soundtrack after all this time? Almost every other streaming service can handle it. Why do I have to choose between UHD + 2.0 or HD (Freeview/Sky) + 5.1. Thanks!

  • PatrickJMB Patrick Brannigan 💙💙 🎼🎶📸 Ouvrez les fenêtres (@PatrickJMB) reported

    @SkippyVinyls I've no problem with the TV. Freeview is all I have. I'm trying to connect my Humax Freeview to record on and access previous recordings but the Samsung isn't detecting it. I'm using a SCART to USB converter.
