    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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

    @SkipperAFC I had a pal who did the usual cancel and wait for them to call him back with the good offer, but they never called him and now he has to watch freeview like he’s an inmate

  • mrsverypicky Sue Reeve ♥️🧡💛💚💙💜🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈🕊️🕷️ (@mrsverypicky) reported

    @katelilyn @simonmayo Same issue here in Glesga. Resorted to app. Supposed to be able to get it on Freeview via TV. Kitchen TV rubbish sound quality, living room OK. At least app is more portable.

  • NoSheds No Sheds 💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@NoSheds) reported

    @LynseyAnneWhite @eamonngriffin An analogue TV can still show analogue pictures sent down the aerial cable by a video (vcr), satellite (sky,freesat,eutelsat), cable, or freeview box

  • SewDaft Mando (@SewDaft) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam No dish on the house. Elderly lady just wants to watch tv and wants more channels than freeview. So is this possible? Can she have sat tv without a broadband service at the property? Have you got a sales team I can talk to? would be much easier but can't find phone # on website.
