  • 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 !

  • 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

  • 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.

    @UncannyVal No I think it’s just freeview being ****. Not entirely sure. Can only get bbc, itv and c4 and their digital channels for some reason and nothing else. The channels weren’t working and retuning just lost them altogether?!

  • phoebemonkey Ruth Mutch 👩🏻‍🦽 (@phoebemonkey) reported

    I have a suspicion the Freeview engineer who came to “fix” my connection a while ago is responsible for this madness. He spent hours swopping around cables. I couldn’t check what he’d done because the cables are inaccessible to me (and the Virgin Hub was out of reach!)

  • RsKelv Kelvin R. Smith P&J Project (@RsKelv) reported

    @otivar55 Most people will probably steer clear of @AJEnglish (Freeview CH 235) and never see this remarkable 4-part documentary. Hopefully, it will be allowed to be screened on UK mainstream TV.

  • DoktorFuttocks Daniel Emerson (@DoktorFuttocks) reported

    @twarrestrial @rugbyleagueontv Very true. The quality difference between Freeview SD and iPlayer on a Fire TV Stick, even with my slow connection, is stark. Plus, if you watch something as a stream, it is automatically logged in the official viewing figures, which won't happen on FreeView.

    @afneil I've seen these on Freeview. Both low key, undramatic, no gimmicks and no inappropriate latter-day commentators popping up to give their spin, and yet so magnetic. Very much in the image of Thames TV's world class, The World at War. (If you've never seen, see before you die!)

  • joshua_drummond Bird Hat Grifter (@joshua_drummond) reported

    So yeah, if you have Christian family who have been rabbitholed by conspiracy nonsense, be aware that there’s a pipeline of garbage being beamed out to God knows how many people on Freeview

  • BathCityRadio Bath City Radio (@BathCityRadio) reported

    @MattyBray007 As in I thought freeview was a description for something like a streaming service. I’ll quit while I’m behind.

  • twarrestrial r (@twarrestrial) reported

    @rugbyleagueontv the SD on freeview is poor, the better quality on the laptop is good
