  • thelobsterboy Paul Smith (@thelobsterboy) 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!

  • Like47 Les Dawson and me #JC4PM2019 #LabourActivist (@Like47) reported from Manchester, England

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

  • pepperpotdog pepper brierley (@pepperpotdog) reported from Oldham, England

    Just watching @JohnNicholRAF on #smithsonianchannel on freeview ch 57 d-day and the dambusters! Damn good watch!

  • 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

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @FreeviewAdvice I’m asking if its coming to Freeview Play, why would Sky know that? The BBC have said it’s coming to internet connected TV services (including Sky Glass). Freeview Play is an internet connected TV service it not? One not limited by manufacturer unlike Sky’s service.

  • AndSmelly Smelly Socks and Garden Peas (@AndSmelly) reported

    @sarahMo3W @susankmann @TheDTblogs Having too much choice really is a 1st world problem. Between Netflix, Prime and Disney+ as well as NowTV and all the freeview stuff. I liked having 4 channels to pick from.

  • Reuben04748504 Reuben (@Reuben04748504) reported

    @ThisisACTV Think loosing the number on channels like sky is doing with sky one does give more impact on streaming service. The numbers ok if Freeview and channel hopping but the future landscape is more streaming so build up change now try out new things before it's too late.

  • ChefGarethS Chef G (@ChefGarethS) reported

    @BustedSpyke @BBC I thought the Red Button on BBC was free? I'm guessing it is if you have freeview on your TV but how'd you get to watch that on a laptop / mobile device? As for the online commentary, I've got the same problem as I'm just on the edge of 95.5FM's area 🤬

  • hopeless_punter Dan Chivers (@hopeless_punter) reported

    @wgf1976 @GBNEWS It's not news though. Call it Farage TV and stick it on YouTube for those that want it. No problem with that. Broadcasting as a "news" channel, in the news section of the EPG, using precious Freeview capacity? *That* I don't believe in, no. No right thinking person would.

  • Jon_oh_oh_7 Jonathan (@Jon_oh_oh_7) reported

    Is it multitoom compatible? What happens when cancel subscription? The tv wont have built in freeview so will b redundant @SkyHelpTeam #skyglass

  • DugMillward The Rodent (@DugMillward) reported

    @Channel4 & @channel5_tv with all the problems with your networks going down, no subtitles unavailable to the deaf, why not open a 2nd channel on Freeview with all the same programming at the same time (like the HD channels), but with a Signer and subtitles on screen at all times

  • Feather_Dancer Feather_Dancer (@Feather_Dancer) reported

    @Noehaddock You can tell how the "Spot Conrad in the background" is going :p Not watched many episodes this week, they had Amazing Spiderman (Terrible) and Venom (******* fantastic) on freeview so kinda watched those instead lol

  • ddemOn888 Dad Attitude (@ddemOn888) reported

    @Ftumch3 Yeah. I only watch it if I stay in a hotel and the WiFi/phone reception is terrible and I'm reliant on Freeview TV.

  • ianfpickles Frankie Pickles (@ianfpickles) reported

    @virginmedia what’s up with SD channels the quality is terrible .. my freeview SD channels are so much better!!?
