  • _Ninji 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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 !

  • LazyHermit 🌪 (@LazyHermit) reported from Clydebank, Scotland

  • Quoton 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👍

  • milirn2503 M r (@milirn2503) reported

    @skytv my SkyArts channel has gone from my Freeview! Can I get it back? Also gone sky news please help

  • TalkTalk TalkTalk (@TalkTalk) reported

    @jackieshears2 The Freeview service is not something we have an effect on Jackie as this is not supplied by us. This service is supplied by the TV aerial coming into the property. Have you connected the TV aerial directly to the back of the TV to see if the issues are persisting?

  • Ike_Laudius Ike_Laudius (@Ike_Laudius) reported

    @FreeviewTV Help, please! Subtitles are not recording on my Freeview recorder for ITV3 and 4. All others seem okay, so my machine settings are okay.

  • Big_Frank88LFC seán (@Big_Frank88LFC) reported

    @Tipler1983 Considering most people have sky, virgin, freeview & even the skullduggery of IPTV I doubt very much we'll have any broadcasting issues. Plus all shows are on their on demand services which are international

  • KevPeaWilliams KevPeaWilliams (@KevPeaWilliams) reported

    @MarinaPurkiss That old CRT TV! Just for stupid bollocks fun question... how many lines were there on a standard UK telly broadcast? Clue: more than ******** standard Freeview blurvision...

    Yep, usual pain in the arse as soon as the weather changes! Can’t watch anything in our area! About time you lot fessed up and admitted your incapable of sending a Freeview signal to all areas?

  • baileys36 Jenny Lewis (@baileys36) reported
