  • karlmcintyre Karl McIntyre (@karlmcintyre) reported from St Helens, England

    @drewhill79 @VodafoneUK @MattJConnor @StHKHIS Same here. BT got the 150 mb and it flies. Good support and I stream everything!! Don’t even have normal freeview.

  • 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

  • Northern_Steve Steve, just Steve (@Northern_Steve) reported from Manchester, England

    @mickmcfc1 I'll never know. I've pulled the cable out. BBC Parliament on freeview only from now on. They talk absolute bollocks but rarely about football. I'm in!

  • Smoothste21 Smoothste2 (@Smoothste21) reported from Sale, England

  • thelobsterboy Paul Smith (@thelobsterboy) reported from Manchester, England

    I love these Freeview updates. Each time I rescan the television I seem to lose additional channels! I'm down to QVC, Free Sports and That's 70s and it's only 3pm!

  • onesteviebacon Steve Bacon (@onesteviebacon) reported

    Anybody having reception problems with @talkSPORT on Freeview this afternoon? Gone off completely now!

  • Farfields_0x04 John 3VaxDermott *🌻🇺🇦* 🇬🇧🇳🇿 (@Farfields_0x04) reported

    @Yekki_1 Use Freeview box with antenna where you can get a convenient signal and check the remote will work at that distance, then hdmi wireless extender to your TV. Not elegant though.

  • mikemart1n Mike Martin (@mikemart1n) reported

    @StevieClaridge @ichoosemag Dave Hills Dave kills where funny fringed guitarist hunts down comedians who have appeared on the freeview channel. Not suitable for family viewing.

  • CSI_Pete Pete Wright (@CSI_Pete) reported

    @bt_uk Hi. If I cancel my BT TV, what services would the box be left with please. Just freeview and the recorder? Or completely nothing. Things getting too expensive. Thanks.

  • mrg9999 mrg9999 (G8NNT) (@mrg9999) reported

    @alexbloor RT isn't closed down. It may have been removed on freesat, freeview but it still seems to be on the interweb

  • SonnerSounds WhatNow (@SonnerSounds) reported

    The @RadioTimes website used to be great, now it's terrible. Used to be able to hover over a programme and get a summary, now have to click through. Doesn't remember if you are Freeview or whatever.

  • CJP_services Chris (@CJP_services) reported

    @SkyNews Oh crap, another subscription to cancel. Already ditched sky. Just amazon prime left and then after that just left with freeview that I have to spend £160 a year to BBC to watch GB News. Hardly free view. Oh well in 1970s we had a mere 3 channels.

  • BrianBnew Brian Newcombe (@BrianBnew) reported

    A modicum of amusement in all this horror: Today's DT: Apparently "That's TV" (new TV channel on Freeview 91) will be showing all Monty Python episodes uncut from this Monday. Interesting, as an awful lot of it isn't very pc (by today's standards...).

  • OCDTrudy Grumpy Old Girl! #WearADamnMask 😷🇪🇺 (@OCDTrudy) reported

    @LemSip27 No some idiot left an item at the station so it had to be checked and it wasn't suspicious. Freeview has been having problems for months with various transmitters or relays going down throughout the UK

  • misscepayne Carolyn Payne (@misscepayne) reported

    @CarrieHFletcher Literally dreading the day I have to upgrade the telly! I don’t know how any of it works! And I haven’t even entered the realm of the smart tv yet! We just have freeview! That’s it! Good luck! And sorry for the lack of help x
