    @MrMalky Get tae **** !! Freeview is a wash with their content and the reason why people stump.up for NetFlix. I give it a year not personally I can't tell you the last thing I watched on ITV and BBC can **** right off !

    @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.

    TikTok's latest trend is based on Adult Swim and the channel titles or whatever and... I grew up with Freeview television. I have no idea what's going on. I'm so lost. This is nearly as bad as when I tried to watch Phineas & Ferb with people and had no idea what was happening.

    @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

    @virginmedia all my channels including freeview ones are giving the message 'channel not authorised' this morning, I've rebooted and still the same, any help please??

  • TravellingScot4
    TravellingScotsman (@TravellingScot4) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @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

    @FreeviewTV @FreeviewAdvice cont. So I have to select London region with bad reception to enable me to select series to record without the duplication eg 103 & 803 for an ITV series recording. BT says this is a Freeview upgrade.

    Well thats weird, plugged a sat feed into an androidTV to see if it's inbuilt sat support is any good, (Only sat comes in where the tv is) it seems to have mapped the channels to the freeview EPG.

    @bt_uk getting little to no signal on many channels on bt tv I’m currently on my 2nd tv box. It’s not my Aerial as I’m getting freeview on my tv just fine when I plug it in. Any solution?? My 1st box began to do this 3 months in and I was told the box was faulty now same issue

    @hotukdeals I have one of their Freeview boxes. It is the buggiest piece of **** I have ever encountered. #Oakcastle

    @gbnews Why is the frame rate on your Freeview transmission so slow? I've also noticed the sound and vision are often out of sync. Are you transmitting at a reduced bitrate?

  • erlendwatson

    @SourceproDesign @ukiswitheu B) You need to be covered by a TV Licence if you watch live TV on any channel or TV service - such as ITV Hub, All 4, YouTube, Sky, Virgin, BT, Freeview, Amazon Prime Video, Now TV - on any device

  • jatolion
    Lion is carefully out of his den again. (@jatolion) reported

    Its Freeview, not Poxtel so shouldnt have a problem as long as he can see the satellite from the den. Going to see if he can turn it into a mobile installation by mounting the dish on a Speaker tripod.

    And it think it’s terrible that the other home nations can watch their team on Freeview, yet if the Scots want to see one of the best Scottish teams ever, they have to fork out for a sky sports subscription. Sort this out and get the games on the BBC or STV @ScottishFA

  • MrWarrenTweets
    Charlie Warren (@MrWarrenTweets) reported

    It's not even prime time on a major network, it's some Freeview channel nobody has heard of that isn't even available in my area. Cringe.

    @Discovery Don't know if you can help but i'm in the UK & all of a sudden cannot get any of your channels on freeview. Quest, Food Network etc. It just says channel no longer exists. Tried updating channels, scanning for channels etc to no avail. Can you advise?
