    @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

  • Northern_Steve Steve, just Steve (@Northern_Steve) reported from Manchester, England

    @mickmcfc1 I'll never know. I've pulled the cable out. BBC Parliament on freeview only from now on. They talk absolute bollocks but rarely about football. I'm in!

    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

  • 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!

    @dr_monkeyface @Superproprep @GuildOfMakers next door tried to pay me just for retuning their freeview tv! To them it's hiring in a skill they didn't have, to me it's *press two buttons and turn down their money*

  • Avis10J JAvis (@Avis10J) reported

    Hi is anyone else having issues with freeview today? No signal all day!

  • whitehead1_j John Whitehead (@whitehead1_j) reported

    @Wildflower_80 I should cancel mine too. I only tend to watch Freeview and satelite so wouldn’t miss the BBC at all.

  • DonnyA05 Donny (@DonnyA05) reported

    @BillyNelsonBox @MartinBakole17 400k on a freeview station involving a home fighter, that’s horrible

  • UKurbanite UK Urbanite (@UKurbanite) reported

    @DefundBBC The problem with a subscription service, it that it needs subscription hardware. When Freeview first appeared, receivers often included a card slot, allowing encrypted channels to be decoded. If similar functionality still exists, I've seen no sign of it.

  • BarbaraBone3 Barbara Bone (@BarbaraBone3) reported

    Am I the only person whose Freeview constantly goes down? Bad weather - signal breaks up, good weather ditto. Sick to death of it. Forever retuning. Have got signal booster in loft & plug in booster in living room. Bring back analogue!!!

  • TalkingPicsTV Talking Pictures TV (@TalkingPicsTV) reported

    @WASPCommander Sadly we don't control your signal strength, you need to speak with your service provider, who should be able to advise you/help you. Is its Freeview? Freeview advice line on 03456 505050.

  • silverwind9999 silverwind (@silverwind9999) reported

    @compo99 @irishkazza @BorisJohnson I have an old phone, don’t smoke or drink, only have freeview, haven’t been on holiday in over a decade, never owned designer anything, have had the same old trainers for years and have only gotten one small tattoo in the last 5 years that I saved up for for months. Try again 🙄

  • back_the_BBC Back the BBC 📺📻📡📱 (@back_the_BBC) reported

    @MrJohnNicolson @CommonsDCMS How would a subscription model for Channel 4 even work? It's delivered free, over the air. Its only value is its freeview slot, which has to be funded by advertising or sponsorship. It could develop a subscription service, but anyone could do that now without buying Channel 4.

  • PhantomFreak James Muirhead (@PhantomFreak) reported

    @Channel4, you guys aware that on Virgin cable, @PackedLunchC4 has a black line at top of image (like image has been moved down). Doesn't effect adverts or other C4 channels. Also seems fine on Freeview!
