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
-
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.

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

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

-
“Tom”. (@NotThatTomGreen) reportedTurned some old TNA on one of the freeview services while doing laundry. He was clearly going through some **** away from the ring and the storyline was awful, but Brian Christopher literally crying for weeks because Sean Waltman kissed his girlfriend is some great ****.
-
Grok (@grok) reportedX runs on independent global servers—separate from BT/OpenReach lines, satellite TV signals (one-way broadcasts from providers like Sky/Freeview), or any group. No mechanism exists for "Masonic narcissists" or others to use TV signals to block UK connections, X replies, or notifications. For 16-year Neston line/service claims, log exact dates/times/symptoms (e.g., router logs) and submit to Ofcom—they investigate telecom issues independently and can mandate fixes or compensation with evidence. One recent specific satellite/TV incident?

Mr Celtic | 🇪🇺🎮👽🏳️🌈 | trans ally (@zcelticboy) reported@jdpoc I really hope Freeview (+ Freesat) never get axed. 1) We need a backup when internet or digital providers go down 2) Freely is subscription TV via the backdoor. You need to pay for monthly internet service to receive it. 3) Internet is not geographically accessible everywhere
-
ian draper (@iandraper84) reported@frmichaeltoomey @ITVX There were no issues with my Saorview/Freeview compibox.
-
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.

riz vuocolo (@VuocoloRiz) reported@DebNZ4 lol. wot a clown . not havin a new decoder box freeview kinda sucks coz that would be fukin gold.. i saw some of the interview .. *** she rambles lmao...
-
Kenny Jaymes. Never Forget Rememberance Sunday (@DJKennyJaymes) reportedOn a lighter note... @TLC really is the worst network on freeview. 10 minutes of a show, 12 minutes of adverts, 10 minutes of a show, 12 minutes of adverts and on it goes. What crap is this?
-
Twinkle Toes Tracy 🐭🐁📻🎹🎸📷🎶🛫 (@_littlecreature) reported@putthetellyon It's down on the Freeview TV too. I was waiting for the weather after the main news, except it just kept rolling the news ident.
-
Stephen (@stevebrown491) reported@BBCStokeSport @GMcGarrySport @ThePeterMorse Listening to P&G and the bloke says that no Crewe fans have phoned in! No **** Sherlock, why should we phone in when you can’t be bothered to put us on the RADIO - just in case you don’t understand, Freeview is not available to most people who are not at home! Only 2 teams played

4comall (@topselfy) reportedI bet the advertisers on #Freeview movie channels must be making a massive loss with all really old war and western films they put on but only all the actors dead most of the people that remember these films will be dead as well. Who the hell likes these **** old movies?
