    I love these Freeview updates. Each time I rescan the television I seem to lose additional channels! I'm down to QVC, Free Sports and That's 70s and it's only 3pm!

  • Northern_Steve Steve, just Steve (@Northern_Steve) reported from Manchester, England

    @mickmcfc1 I'll never know. I've pulled the cable out. BBC Parliament on freeview only from now on. They talk absolute bollocks but rarely about football. I'm in!

  • collegeflunky Sean Vickers (@collegeflunky) reported from Radcliffe, England

    @FreeviewAdvice any advice?Unable to watch terrestrial tv properly since Winter Hill update in August. Retuned Humax box and Hisense tv numerous times but still an issue #winterhill #freeview #

  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Sale, England

    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

  • m7leicauser Andy Barton (@m7leicauser) reported from Comberbach, England

    @FreeviewTV Thanks to Dan at Freeview, the aerial-out retune x2 seems to have cured the problem. 👍

  • _oatc_ oatc (@_oatc_) reported

    @BBCNews @BBCNewsPR Why is BBCNewsHD being deleted from Freeview on 30JUN2022? It is the only HD news service there!

  • leighhaynesuk Leigh Haynes (@leighhaynesuk) reported

    @cordbusters Just got the pop-up. A truly awful decision by @bbc to remove @bbcnews from Freeview HD. Even worse knowing that £80m was spent bringing BBC Three back.

  • dearaunty .Dear Aunty (@dearaunty) reported

    .@ITV James Bond 'Tomorrow Never Dies' now showing on freeview - who decided to censor scenes in this, & why?

  • A1an_M Alan (@A1an_M) reported

    @GBNEWS Don't watch Freeview any more. That would involve paying for a TV licence which would mean the BBC receiving money from me and that's not going to happen. It would also suggest I tacitly support the mainstream media which I don't; its news coverage is a tissue of lies.

  • leach768 Mark leach768@Gmail.com (@leach768) reported

    @Greyfoxp So I take it this is is why BBC News in HD is stopping on Freeview on 30 June to save money for stupid ideas like this one

  • simdmuk Simon D M (@simdmuk) reported

    @VirginMedia_TV Now that Com7 Freeview MUX is causing channels to close in droves and gems like Forces TV going forever, how about reducing you TV package prices, as I have about 150 channels of garbage which I never watch. How you can tout "modern TV" is beyond belief .

  • SteveSonLad109 Sausage🍀🐯 (@SteveSonLad109) reported

    @Deji500 Dreadful take this, Poindexter. One of the single worst and ignorant tweets I’ve ever read. Slam on the 10 minute freeview and have a tug, you daft get.
