@FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England
@jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England
@njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

@virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.
-
Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England
@tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England
Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?
-
JEFFREY PHILLIPS (@JEFFREY03296741) reported from Brentford, England
@TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?
-
Martin (@MartinC93414706) reported from Lambeth, England
@channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England
I will never have normal freeview tv

Maggie - wear a mask 💙🏳️🌈🌱 (@maggieinlondon) reported from Wandsworth, England
With all this wall to wall coverage crap of a dead man by @skynews and @bbcnews Netflix and Freeview's viewing figures must be the highest they've ever been.

fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England
@PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England
@leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.
-
Carl (@shoxtl2) reported from Croydon, England
@MyHydeHome @SCCIAlphatrack Not even sure how that's possible there's no record anyways over the weekend we lost signal for the communal aerial it has become very weak very pixelated can pick up the Freeview HD channels

@bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

Joe Bloggs (@JoeBlog21) reported
@PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries It doesn't maintain the Freeview transmitter network on its own ya liar!
-
Dominic Wheatley (@gsydom) reported
@PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries BBC does not own / fund Freeview network. Public subsidy of minority programming should continue but does not require a licence fee tax. BBC does not need to be for profit but no-one should be forced to buy its generally poor mainstream programming.
-
Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported
@PumaBare So you want private subscribers to maintain the Freeview network that they don’t use, provide educational resources whether they have kids or not, provide Welsh services if they aren’t Welsh, provide for Disability programming if they aren’t disabled? Why should they?
-
Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England
@PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries BBC does NOT maintain Freeview network. That is Arqiva. BBC in partnership with other PSB broadcasters own Freeview. They, like other broadcaster pay carriage charges to Arqiva.
-
Aston (@85Aston) reported
@PCarmichaelVO Is the Freeview network the BBC as well? I thought that was Arqiva
-
Post Brexit Foxy 🦊 (@DeusFoxy) reported
@PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries There's plenty of companies out there. I see ads on some channels that aren't shown on ITV or Channel 4 or 5. Personally I'm for a hybrid model; ads on a skeleton Freeview service, with option of a paid sub on iPlayer for Premium and ad-free catch-up content.
-
Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported
@In4ThePips @NadineDorries The fact that we think disabled people deserve good programming, children deserve good educational resources, the poor deserve Freeview etc etc? Some of us do anyway.
-
IreFilledMonkey (@FilledIre) reported
@mrjamesob The entire freeview system, built and maintained by the BBC. The radio we listen to all over the world, Parts of the emergency broadcast system. The massive international footprint made by the BBC, creating huge goodwill for Britian. All destroyed because of these petulant liars.
-
Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported
@brownboots23 @stevehemsley @NadineDorries So how do we provide such things as disability programming, Welsh language broadcasting, maintain the Freeview transmitter network (used largely by the elderly and poor) and provide educational resources? These don’t generate profit. Ready when you are.
-
Chris (@carmadchris) reported from Hazlemere, England
@LlamaBusiness @skytv Bailed on them last year, never looked back Unless you live in the sports channels, look at what you get for your £, then see what would be free on freeview/freesat & what is on other services like Netflix
