    @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.

  • 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.

    @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…

  • 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.

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

    @KellyKn32782125 @MrsSMHI @FoolOfLondon If you watch anything on Freeview then it’s from same transmission network all paid from licence, sort of an access fee.

  • MsDJ1780 Ms DJ (@MsDJ1780) reported

    @piersmorgan Sounds like my Uncle!! Took him to get a ‘new tv’ (with freeview, etc built in). With purchase he got 6 free months of one plus 12 months of another. I set it all up straight away (inc. the freebies). Yet, he’s never even tried them - he’d rather moan that there’s nothing on TV!

  • colinm65290743 colin_m (@colinm65290743) reported

    @Iromg Yes, retuned my Freeview and there it is, GB News test signal on ch 236.

  • Co1Mary Mary Cook (@Co1Mary) reported

    @TruthOls @Reuters CNN is not available on Freeview TV, I don't pay for a subscription service and I don't watch news online.

  • Mark56623345 mark Hughes (@Mark56623345) reported

    @a516digital Freeview sent harry hill round, he knew what the trouble was, he took down my setup and put up a budget system from b and q, and mounted it using the wrong polaraity, he told me that's the best he could do, he even left without me knowing!

  • GeorgeBrownFFC George Brown (@GeorgeBrownFFC) reported

    The fact that the league cup final isn’t on freeview and instead they’re showing Burnley vs Wolves just shows the problems with big money in our game. What happened to champions league and europa league on ITV?

  • StefanCtn Stefan C (@StefanCtn) reported

    @FreeviewAU Since Freeview updated to 1.04 our Hisense 65S8 TV no longer allows the default electronic program guide (EPG) button to work. @HisenseAus advised this is a known issue with Freeview to fix. Is there a timeline on getting this resolved?

  • juneh49 June Hurst 🐈🦊🌷🌻🌾 (@juneh49) reported

    @GBNEWS That took awhile I never watch Freeview!

  • unit_korg Korg Unit 🇬🇧🇧🇻🇺🇸 (@unit_korg) reported

    @Huddert @jacquelineter17 Why are y'all even watching the bbc. Let them spout their sh*te into a void. GB News on Freeview Channel 236 is broadcasting soon. Get your TV re-tuned if it does not show the test signal. Enjoy.
