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
-
Ben (@ben_k_99) reported from Thornliebank, Scotland@figuremonkey Yeah imagine having to sit through this with nothing but what's on Freeview TV. Poor souls
-

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
-
Miss Leading Herself, Katy Lawson (@KTCCLawson) reported from Renfrew, ScotlandTikTok'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.
-
Brian Campbell (@Quoton) reported from Greenock, Scotland@Johnson66892442 @Nick_Metcalfe One thing which may help is that you can go to red button by choosing channel 981 on Sky or 301 on freeview, if you want to avoid iplayer👍
-
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.
-
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??

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
-
Andrew Simpson (@Andysimpson74) reported from Alexandria, ScotlandAnyone 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.

CharlesWynfordLodge (@2hrTV) reported@BENEFITS_NEWS I don't understand what switching off Freeview does, except I assume forces people to pay for everything? We have an Amazon Fredrick thing but the channels are apps. It's crap half the TV channels you can't even get on it. Freeview is better.
-
Voyeur (@LeVoyeur72) reported@the_saffman @TheDoctorMagic @AlanJLSmith Not any more. However, BBC World Service is available in the UK on Freeview, so it's not as if you're paying for something you can't listen to, unlike when it was funded through taxation. Plus cable and satellite operators abroad also pay to carry it.
-
🇮🇪NOLA Gooner🇵🇸 (@NolaGooner) reportedScrolling the freeview channels this past weekend a familiar movie title popped up, Fever Pitch. "Uh, a shame it's the stupid Jimmy Fal... Oh, wait, is that Mark Strong??" It was!
-
jason_mi7 (@Mi7Jason) reported@WhichUK For live events, internet speed isn’t everything. For reliability and lowest delay, broadcast TV still wins: Freeview, satellite or cable. Fibre streaming is great but usually behind “live”. 5G/4G/Starlink can work well, but depend more on signal, congestion and load.
-
the depot (@thedepot9) reported@reformparty_uk i have a freely tv same as freeview but runs off internet instead of an aerial, are you that stupid you dont know about it🙈🙈🙈
-
laura (@hudsonlc6) reportedfreely the best freeview out there. needs the Internet to watch tv but then doesnt connect to the internet and when it does connect, the tv doesnt work. 6 months I've had this tv and this **** doesnt work
-
MIdAS is a Potato (@mrmidas2k) reported@yellowhairdpunk How? Shits on ITV. They have replays literally on the "on demand" app. Yes, the showings aren't live, that sucks, but you can absolutely follow AEW watching regular *** freeview and getting PPV's.
-
Matt Quinn - The Caledonian Television Company. (@Matt_Q_OnX) reported@iggy1966 @BENEFITS_NEWS They don't really, Chris... However the 'Freely' service currently being touted to replace Freeview in about 15 years time IS a streamed service which WILL be available via set top boxes/inbuilt IP provision in TV sets and probably an 'App'.
-
Mr J.Baines (@Mrjbaines) reportedI hear that Live from The Apollo will end after its next run of shows. Shame that as I quite enjoyed it. The bbc say it’s down to low viewing figures and saving £. Problem is that the BBC allows multiple episodes to be repeated on Freeview/iplayer channels at regular intervals.

Mr Mega Dump (@ChestneyS) reported@darrengrimes Nothing decided yet so I’ll wait until it actually happens before deciding to cancel my subscriptions or not. Tv companies are losing customers right left and centre due to the constant inflation plus 3.9%. I’m seriously looking at just getting a freeview box and a “fire stick “
