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.
-
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.
-
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
-
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
-
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 !
-
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
-
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👍
-
El Capitan ⚓️ (@AngusCapitan) reported from Glasgow, Scotland@HotsnaxMihole @BreedersCup Us poor folk only have Freeview.

billythebookie2025 (@billythbook) reported@Davidj0hnson123 Liquidity is well down on Betfair. never seen it so bad. Needs to be on a Freeview TV channel
-
Kerguelen (@Aramith147) reported@itsGower @FionaMc79461755 @bosdovja92 Yes you do!!! absolutely need a TV licence to watch or record live TV on any channel or service, including Sky TV, Virgin Media, Amazon Prime Video, ITV, Channel 4, or free-to-air channels on Freeview or Freesat.
-
casey (@tinyrowlet) reported@DamonJMorris yes! i'm with freeview and i had to put it on the channel 4 app on my tv via wifi and it's working fine there. must be a satellite problem on their end
-
CinOvation 📽 (@CinOvation) reported@roland26750 @silverfoxdude @FunMovieTVFan It's on Peacock in the U.S. and on Netflix in several international territories. It was originally available on the Audience Network (formerly Freeview) before the service shut down in May, 2020.
-
Marina (and Buster🐾)🐈🚣♀️ (@mpmeg) reported@MajQapla The Encore app is a catch up only service, and doesn't show live TV. I expect Abigail's Party will be added after broadcast. I watch TPTV via Virgin media channel 445, I know it is on Freeview (81?)
-
365 Days of Dave (@timbcaycgi) reported@ChrisHazzardSF My understanding is that RTE services work on the Freeview platform via terrestrial signal deep beyond the boarder counties. With RTE themselves saying that the signal strength is high in the boarder region and moderate beyond
-
Mr. Kiwi (@MrHilariouskiwi) reportedBit slow off the mark with this one. Thought I'd fire up the FreeView sat box but NOT WORKING because in April 2025 (AKA 'just recently Mr. Kiwi 🙄) is dead will not talk to 'new satellite'. So much for watching winter Olympics.
-
lightchild (@lightchilduk) reported@bluealoud I've never had Sky, had Freeview for a little while.
-
Presley Turberville (@T21949Presley) reported@babycowLtd @bbcstudios Some mundane **** for Freeview telly.
-
Sam Clark (@sambakey) reported@easternsparkle @Felstedboy We have Freesat, not Freeview, but can't you scroll down the TV guide to see where it is? I can on Freesat through my TV.
