  • LexFuturus LexFuturus (@LexFuturus) reported from Longfield, England

    Terrible streaming quality via YouTube! @btsport should have made it freeview #UCLfinal

  • Davidp1103 Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Snodland, England

    Continually frustrated by @TalkTalk and its inconsistent service and performance. Have today purchased a freeview recorder to replace their box and will be actively looking for new broadband provider.

  • englishbobsnr NM (@englishbobsnr) reported from Maidstone, England

    Please please please please please please please please PLEASE STOP CHANGING THE FREEVIEW CHANNEL NUMBERS AROUND FOR **** SAKE #Freeview @FreeviewTV

  • Davidp1103 David-19 (@Davidp1103) reported from Gravesend, England

    @TalkTalk It would be nice if you could reduce or remove a £40 charge for an engineer who called but made no inspection of equipment, explained that Freeview channels had been altered; a fact that your customer services were not aware of, but should have known.

  • robinjuste Robin Juste Emery (@robinjuste) reported from Gillingham, England

    Fog risk and disruption to TV and radio transmissions. Expect some lost Freeview or low signal channels on some mornings next week! #KentWeather @AffinityDJ @AffinityKent

    @russty_russ In SD it’s on 231, but on HD it’s 107. I’m not sure how that works but there you go. RT’s HD service isn’t too far behind it on Freeview either.

  • lottiesblue lottie 💖 (@lottiesblue) reported

    I didn’t know who ******** that was I just wanted to watch disney channel but mum and dad said **** the 1% you’ll watch freeview

  • Takethatjoe Gerald Smith 🤢 (@Takethatjoe) reported

    @Ange_9_ @darrengrimes_ So you think advertising is going to raise an extra £3.7 billion? The BBC share maintenance of freeview, freeview is the biggest digital platform and you casually say they’ll go subscription, not everyone has a fast reliable broadband service and you’re assuming millions

  • EdScottLondon Ed Scott (@EdScottLondon) reported

    @paincave1 I don’t worry for the bbc or the government. There are a lot of issues - the license fee is an outdated way of finding it when it is totally impossible to force people. Subs won’t work with Freeview. Only option is directly fund it out of our taxes.

  • MajorClanger5 MajorClanger (@MajorClanger5) reported

    @res_to_ra_tion @meghansupporter Have you quite finished? No we had never heard of MM before she came into H's life. I live in the UK and Suits was on a USA Channel then on a little watched freeview channel here in the UK. So no we had NOT heard of her. What are receipts anyway? I haven't bought anything.

  • russty_russ Russty_Russ #Retro (@russty_russ) reported

    @sgordon_the87 DIdn't realise the BBC News channel took such a high place on Freeview. I thought it was lower down in the "rankings"

  • Carpe177 Anthony Carpenter (@Carpe177) reported

    Why does Amazon Prime cut off my tv, comes up telling me I have a Reuter problem when I'm now on Freeview ch 23 Dave ja vu? Rick Stein. (Oh, I'm Not on internet a year now, or its tv. A too costly scam! Now Use 4G.)

  • tvark TVARK (@tvark) reported

    BBC Three returns to Freeview on Tuesday so you may need to retune your TV or set-top box. BBC Three will be on channel 23, DaveJaVu moves to 25. All other channels between 25 and 85 all move down 1 place on the programme list. Ideal World is now on 51, TJC on 22. Happy retuning!

  • NeilRBowers Neil Bowers (@NeilRBowers) reported

    @skytv Hi, Sky Arts is available on FreeView but I get very poor TV reception. How can I watch it online? I have a TV Licence.

    Hey Freeview, I don’t want to keep pressing yellow all the damn time, make it stop!
