    @nowtvhelp It’s ok they’ll tell to do the exact same things I’ve done already. It’s working now but for how long. And your live chat very rarely works. Or there’s a long wait to speak to someone. When the passes are finished I’ll just cancel and stick to freeview amazon prime and Netflix

  • _Ninji Ninji 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇮 B L M / 1312 (@_Ninji) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @ali_king Now I feel like I should check the 365 Travel channel on Freeview again to see if they’re still advertising cruises that never happened

  • verflucht Mr A$AP Verflucht Esq. (@verflucht) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @SuperRetroid @jonesthescribe @MrTom Fair point. :) And in fairness, I have never had to use an internal Freeview in a telly in over 14 years. I always thought they'd use the aerial, not the leftover debris from Sky.

  • LazyHermit 🌪 (@LazyHermit) reported from Clydebank, Scotland

    @Katet282 So sorry you've had trouble watching! You could try it on the Freeview Play app, to watch one of the repeats on Sky Arts, Easter Monday at 9.30pm or Thursday 8th April at 10pm.

  • lizfielding Liz 'ready for the beach' Fielding (@lizfielding) reported from East Grinstead, England

    What on earth has happened to #Freeview? No signal.

  • herkinderkin John Johnston (@herkinderkin) reported

    @radionzmusic @radionz I can't see any Freeview listings for RNZ National after today. We have rubbish radio reception and terrible internet here, so Freeview is our only option to hear Nashville Babylon. HELP!

  • russeaside1053 russell (@russeaside1053) reported

  • FacileTalk daz boot (@FacileTalk) reported

    Right. 9pm. Sony Movies Classic. Ch 51 Freeview. AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON But if you want to watch Nigella suck baked beans off a carrot, or whatever else is on, that is your choice & you are an idiot.

  • Adjie16077 Claire Menzies (@Adjie16077) reported

    @Ofcom Fed Up with watching TV full of rubbish to many reality TV and full of too many daily repeats. Freeview lies about new series that are just moved repeated on different channels. When are we going to receive good news every day instead of constant bad news?

  • Aurora_UK_LAH Lisa Hetherington (@Aurora_UK_LAH) reported
