  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

  • DamienAshton Damien Ashton-Wellman (@DamienAshton) reported from Birmingham, England

    Looking through the festive TV schedule and there's no Muppet Christmas Carol on any of the freeview channels this year. Never wanted @DisneyPlus to launch more than right now.

    @virtualash tell your boys your TV quality is poor on Freeview. Whale's head will not look fuzzy. This can't be allowed to happen.

    @itvnews I complained about that awful erectile disfunction advert that appears on some Freeview channels, sometimes in the day & at teatimes, when kids will be watching & they didn't do anything! They said it was fine. It's not nice when young grandkids ask what erectile disfunction is!

  • ellrbrown Elliott Brown (@ellrbrown) reported from Birmingham, England

    @mrgrahamreed @BBCiPlayer I think I only saw season 1 on Sky 3 on Freeview. Never saw the rest of it. The classic '70s Battlestar got shown on BBC 2, in the '90s.

    @shabfelou @FreeNorthNow @itvhub 4 on demand is very bad tho... especially next to bbc and freeview

    @adamsherwin10 @SimonMcCoyTV @theipaper If GB news thinks Freeview viewers are not worth HD I hope they fail.

  • jeffbartrop Jeff Bartrop (@jeffbartrop) reported

    @blogmywiki Absolutely, and has the least delay! Still, anyone who happens to be a Sky or Virgin subscriber also has another option to get ITV. Or I can recommend setting up a Plex server with a network Freeview tuner- a DIY PVR / streaming service.

  • MrsMummypennyUK Lynn Beattie (@MrsMummypennyUK) reported

    @IainJGeddes @RyanGosling @AliPlumb Ooohh yes def time to re-watch. It was on a random freeview channel a few nights ago, I got my fix.

  • bobbigmac Bob (@bobbigmac) reported

    The regular drizzle of news stories covering GBNews's failure to find an audience fills me with nothing but joy and hope. Turns out people over 60 have trouble retuning their freeview if their grandkids won't do it for them ;)

  • musafirani sin (@musafirani) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi I used a coax cable to hook up my tv to my wall socket but the tv is not able to tune any channels freeview (it says no signal) - how do I fix this?

  • neilroarty Neil Roarty (@neilroarty) reported

    @gamray I don't get a signal in my flat unless I work for it, Rod Hull style. I have a TV with an in-built freeview box. It's also

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @WordsOfMark1 @Carti_Mandua @GBNEWS It clears the memory, resets the tuners and allows a full retune again. It can help solve some simple problems with equipment and Freeview.

    @dpjermy @GBNEWS its fine on my iphone ...also ok on the laptop ... its just Freeview thats the problem here
