  • 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.

    @gringolito @Jessrocks71 @antmiddleton Jess would never cook a turtle!!!! Yeah I watch freeview too!!! You’re not that clever!!!!

  • adventure_ali_ AdventureAli (@adventure_ali_) reported

    Evening tweeps! Got a conundrum - my aerial socket doesn't work and I keep missing the cricket. Freeview app doesn't work on Chromecast and indoor rabbit ears work minimally. What am I supposed to do to get free to air tv? Only option I can think of is stream from phone or lappy

  • KateADale 🏳️‍🌈 Kate A Dale Archivist🤍 (@KateADale) reported

    @CLC_1000 @NOWMusic Because things are never on Freeview, my theory is they are trying to faze it out and trying to get everyone to switch to Sky and Virgin and stuff to get extra money

  • SanGrownUn1 Stephen Houghton (@SanGrownUn1) reported

    @MartinSLewis Freeview+ has more choice in any 24hrs to need to pay for Any ppv streaming service,which in Current CoL climate is far more practical; I am surprised you are suggesting anyone would choose ppv wrt Any Budgeting advice & I would Frown on Anyone streaming & using Food-bank assist.

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @ZillionaireArt @freesat_tv It is just Freeview and online for now. We are always looking at updating and growing the service and will continue to do so whenever possible.

  • Exa_talks Paul (@Exa_talks) reported

    @amazonianwolf @SkyHelpTeam @SkySportsF1 Exactly I watch f1 and that's about it, occasionally rugby but 90% are on Freeview these days. I basically pay to watch f1 and that's it, while my friends across the pond watch in 4k with multiple views telemetry etc all for a few quid a month Vs our stupid numbers

  • WombleReturns Womble Returns💙 (@WombleReturns) reported

    @IPhillips79 Reminds me of some of the really awful Hot Gossip routines from the Kenny Everett Video Show (on repeat on Freeview #7 these days)

  • UKtodayUK Real Mike ©️ ↙️ (@UKtodayUK) reported

    I only have Freeview, do movie channels get together and collude over what night they they are screening good films and what nights they show crap ones?

  • judge_sweeny JudgeSweeny (@judge_sweeny) reported

    @BBCSport Another unwatchable world cup match due to your AWFUL grasp of surround sound. Commentators volume so low in the Freeview 5.1 mix it makes watching it unbearable.100 years of the BBC and this is how far you've come eh? I'd watch it in 4k if the sound wasn't worse there!
