  • 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

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

    @virginmedia Been a Virgin customer for years. Cancelled Tv but have broadband and phone. Even my Freeview channels have been blocked on my boxes!! How churlish can a company get??😳 Freeview channels?! Show some compassion to your customers

  • Susie61180 Susie (@Susie61180) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @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??

  • shambo1ic shambolic (@shambo1ic) reported from Bowling, Scotland

    @kentindell Tbh every time I turn on my LG it asks if I want to programme channels. I have no antenna connected. I use it for streaming and Sky so never needed freeview etc. not so smart smart Tv

    @HotsnaxMihole @BreedersCup Us poor folk only have Freeview.

  • KTCCLawson Miss Leading Herself, Katy Lawson (@KTCCLawson) reported from Renfrew, Scotland

    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.

  • _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

  • GoldCascade Stuart (@GoldCascade) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    STV on sat 103 and on Freeview showing wrestling when it shd be Tour Highlights...WTF is going on....at least Eurosport is on later. #STV #tourdefrance

  • 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.

  • fitzscrounger Benny Fitzscrounger (@fitzscrounger) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @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 !

  • s5ingh sam 🦁🦁🦁 (@s5ingh) reported

    @ErickWGN16 @scottygb @Eurosports Damn it I only have Freeview :(

  • chriswalkerb 🦝chris🦝 (@chriswalkerb) reported

    @dez_bond A freeview recorder haha! The main issue is getting her to understand which source the tv is on 👵🏼🥺

  • Jonny60009 My Granddad Drove Flying Scotsman (@Jonny60009) reported

    Shoutout to all the Freeview kids who didn’t have channels like Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon and Jetix growing up.

  • DisorderAwesome Captain Borderline (@DisorderAwesome) reported

    @Amanda45887585 What service you using? Freeview, sky, virgin? The channel list may need updating.

  • quidditys_shore Stuart Galloway (@quidditys_shore) reported

    @BBCSport It's not just dab. Constantly cutting out on BBC sounds, google speaker & freeview. Maybe something to do with major Internet outages yesterday (itvhub & playstation I noticed) as playstation is down again for me

  • Zaack23 What good are notebooks? (@Zaack23) reported

    In related news, my god Freeview SD looks terrible, doesn't it? #HolidayThings

  • HiberniaLife Mary White (@HiberniaLife) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi there. I know this is not your issue but someone i know wants to get RTE Irish tv in northern ireland but only a couple of channels are coming through. What can she do to pick them all up? Are some Irish channels on UK Freeview also?

  • SMILE42DAY Ⓜ️ICHELLE🪴🌳🌼💞Nature! (@SMILE42DAY) reported

    @pureangel40 @MSHopkins4 I've had problems with my Freeview box & my mobile here today. Both keep switching off for nothing! 😳

  • D__2__1 DANIEL (@D__2__1) reported

    Aside, imho the effort here to give them their own show vs. Doing the same for the (much larger) Asian populations implicitly shows whites (+other groups) don't think they are capable without help (contra the scores of Asian channels on freeview).
