    @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.

  • genders_jason Jason Genders (@genders_jason) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @madaboutHolly @Lee_JM75 Who's watching this bad boy on Freeview channel 70 ,Horror, right now😁💩💩💩

  • 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.

    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.

    @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!

    @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…

    @MacLiv Yeah I mainly just wanted Sky broadband but even that I’m going to cancel. Freeview channels are good aren’t they! As long as we get CBeebies then we’re happy xxxx

  • sagheramira Amira Sagher (@sagheramira) reported

    Freeview are the service provider in other words

  • Ricky81D Ricky (@Ricky81D) reported

    @Toria8Jones4 As soon as they started charging to see fights I stopped watching all boxing even the free stuff, we pay enough already for a tv licence then sky on top because it’s all just crap repeats on Freeview, I need my history and animal documentaries to stop me going crazy.

  • AuntieDrJo GarethM (@AuntieDrJo) reported

    Are the shows on ITVX going to end up on Freeview eventually? Mostly the Plebs special and Nolly. Don't really get why they're exclusive to that platform when it's a free service. (Have an old telly, it works for getting channels but the apps on there don't work)

  • Lizzy_Windsor winning (@Lizzy_Windsor) reported

    @YardleyShooting The effort of TPTB is to suppress awkward truths and misdirect with hoaxes. Another example - the Freeview TV platform is broken and can never be fixed. Govt wants us all online being tracked. TV Licence fees and antenna setup costs should be refunded.

  • vertigen_f1 Howard (@vertigen_f1) reported

    @RhonddaBryant @ITVX Older smart TVs & older freeview/freesat boxes don’t support it. This is a massive issue for many people. This is no requirement to make manufacturer update software to support it.

  • Bill_King1960 No Scottish Republic (@Bill_King1960) reported

    Breaking. Hummy declares his support for #ISIS 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233

  • Golfstee Steve (@Golfstee) reported

    @alexelliottgolf @pxg I have always seem them as O Over priced Freeview tv kind of garbage gear? Sorry to any fans it's just my opinion😬

  • chrishainstock media:man 🔍🎬 (@chrishainstock) reported
