    @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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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??

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

  • Louise243 LS (@Louise243) reported

    @commaficionado I think I preferred analogue TV static to when the Freeview boxes first came out, because you could still watch through a bit of static, but with digital it would go all pixelated and then lose the signal when there was a bad storm, which happened quite often in rainy Manchester.

    @JustAsk40745451 Hi, I believe if you follow Freeview Advice this should allow you to DM us. I have tried to DM you, for some reason I am unable to do this. Please try a software update within the TV settings. You could also try a factory reset to resolve the issue. Thank you, Melissa

  • LUFC7173 PsychicPsal (@LUFC7173) reported

    @TommyGribbin @MaggieM76079577 Don't have sky. Want to watch footie I go to the pub. Sky is just a few hundred more channels of crap and we have enough rubbish on regular freeview telly.

    @A_M_Seed Don't have TV on at the moment because the Freeview signal is shot (high pressure). Otherwise they could have had CBeebies.
