  • 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

    Anyone having problems at the minute with Freeview? The last couple of days I haven’t had any tv, it just says check your aerial antenna.

  • 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.

  • 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

    @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

  • d4nnytye danny (@d4nnytye) reported

    its not one size fits all but i grew up with only terrestrial/freeview and most the shows had strong moral messaging (even if it was subdued) about how to treat others, respecting differences etc, whereas USian stuff was a lot more based around consumption and celeb culture

  • louisecoatesuk Louise🌻🌻Coates (@louisecoatesuk) reported

    @halciber @ThrillaRilla369 That's the only connection we have and have hundreds of channels now as through digital we use Freeview, if you go back to the old analogue signal you'll get nothing these days.

  • HoraceOflaherty Hoggo (@HoraceOflaherty) reported

    @MarkHeath45 Freeview Better still YouTube Cancel BBC also

    Four shopping channels on freeview tv all peddling garbage

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @Ramtronik Older TVs simply ignore them as they don’t support DVB-T2, not even adding the channels to main channel list. For example, an old Freeview TV will not add BBC One HD on channel 101 or U&Eden on channel 57. That’s not the case with this latest change, which uses DVB-T1 for the

    @FreeviewTV @LGUKCare @FreeviewAdvice Help! Freeview has disappeared from my LG TV. Cant work out how. Missed the footie! Need the service back before the final!

  • secondontheleft Ross (@secondontheleft) reported

    @TVmusicNews Away for the weekend and I'm here, remote control.. no music channels. How are people gonna promote stuff on Freeview! Hotel viewers need tunes! So we had radio 2 on, wasn't so bad.

  • birch_js Jamie Birch (@birch_js) reported

    @yagiznizipli I’d say look for what features it says it supports. In the UK, I’d be looking for: - Freeview Play certification, for hybrid broadcast + broadband - DIAL support, for casting YouTube videos from phone - Some good (possibly native) branded apps included - Responsive UI - No ads

  • shaunlynch68554 shaun lynch (@shaunlynch68554) reported

    @SenAmyKlobuchar We get that service (PBS) here in England on freeview, it's a literal pile of shite that no one watches.

    Wish they never removed @kiss & #Kisstory off Freeview TV. As much as I like @CapitalOfficial they literally play the same songs every hour of every single day. I miss the KISS vibes
