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

    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

  • 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

    @yartsie123 So it becomes a real problem. Stupid freeview

    @zakir___1988 Hi, Zakir. Whether live is available on a catch-up service would be down to the service itself, though generally, the catch-up services on Freeview Play are to be used in conjunction with the standard Freeview service. Fraser

    Looks like this @SkyUK pin requirement is utter crap when I can go to the same programme requiring a pin on sky that is on freeview at the exact same time without having to put in a pin! @SkyHelpTeam

  • Stroudgreenguy J. Alfred Prufrock (@Stroudgreenguy) reported from Tottenham, England

    @Channel4 Hello. Can I watch Channel 4 *live* through the All 4 app on smart TV? All I see is catchup. I would like to watch CH 4 news every night but my aerial is broken, no Freeview. Please advise.

  • DDubya82 Daniel Whittle (@DDubya82) reported

    @davechannel @NEReviews Watching on freeview transmitting from winter hill. It’s not isolated to this one programmes it’s multiple programmes, QI, house of games, travel man, and last night, the Bad Boys II movie. This is being watched on a panasonic TV with integrated freeview.

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi In the Last 2 Weeks my Freeview Signal keeps Breaking down RH20 Post Code Heathfield Transmitter, Evenings are worse than daytime, is there an issue causing this, or could it be the Cold Weather affecting the Signal..Regards..

  • Rivermansky63 Alex M (@Rivermansky63) reported

    Ah, good old Freeview. I'm only just back from my elderly mother's and she rings me to say she can't watch TV because it says that the channels have to be retuned. She can't do it herself so I'll have to go back and do it. It's a stupid system isn't it?

  • techprocess1 🇬🇧 (@techprocess1) reported

    @Gaz_THFC £84!!!! I used to have to pay £65 a month. Switched to freeview via Sky for £5 a month and got a new sky Q box. Hated it. Going to cancel in March when my contract ends. Switched to BT TV for £6 a month, freeview, Netflix and Sky entertainment for 24 months.

    @danwootton Dan, I want to watch but it seems my Freeview signal is too weak on the GB News channel and no pictures appear. Only on that Channel. Any ideas? Thanks.
