    Hope we don't get this warm weather very often.#freeview doesn't work because of the high atmospheric pressure apparently. How am I going to watch #loveisland

  • JoyAnneGarner Joy Garner (@JoyAnneGarner) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Anyone else having issues with Freeview etc today? ST6 area ?

  • kirstxxiv kirstylouise (@kirstxxiv) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Imagine how much of a Christmas miracle it would be if BBC3 came back to freeview number 7. I can picture it now, Gavin & Stacey returns and BBC3 makes a comeback. 25/12/19 would go down in history.

    @DavidWhiteleyTV Freeview SD no problem. Freeview HD I get Meridian. Minor issue in the grand scheme of things though considering what's happening elsewhere in the world.

  • The4thSong ChelseafortheCup (@The4thSong) reported

    i did a freeview retune and now im getting liverpool tv instead of manchester and it sucks they dont do old style comedies like benny hill, hale and pace

  • TheCouchtripper TheCouchtripper (@TheCouchtripper) reported

    @scottygb It's because barely anyone watches normal TV, let alone the freeview channels that are so far down the list. You're welcome.

  • rickyblack1970 ricky black the BAM (@rickyblack1970) reported

    2 absolutely horrible teams in a scottish cup final today. Wont be watching, looking like it will be the sunderland game for me.. unless i can find something better to watch.. on a plus side though, EVERY BBC channel has disappeared from my freeview ☝

  • sharon_hall1977 sharon hall (@sharon_hall1977) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice stop moving the channels around it's doing my head in! Freeview is ****!

  • LwtEmmaBird Sarah Harbour (@LwtEmmaBird) reported

    Hi @rmc47 - @melharbour suggested you might be able to help. Any ideas why a Freeview TV signal might disappear in the middle of the day? We've retuned, but it works fine until about 8.30am, then pixelated before finally displaying 'no signal' - so can't believe it's the tuning

  • back_the_BBC Back the BBC 📺📻📡📱 (@back_the_BBC) reported

    @MrJohnNicolson @CommonsDCMS How would a subscription model for Channel 4 even work? It's delivered free, over the air. Its only value is its freeview slot, which has to be funded by advertising or sponsorship. It could develop a subscription service, but anyone could do that now without buying Channel 4.

  • ErinMiddlemass2 Erin Middlemass (@ErinMiddlemass2) reported

    …as well as numerous add on packages and this money is being completely wasted. The customer service is absolutely shocking. I have relied on now tv rather than freeview etc for television in my home and am now left with nothing even though I’m paying upwards of £25 a month.

    @dannykellywords I don't feel so bad now with just Freeview and a radio. 📻🎙
