  • JensFallesen Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England

    @leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported from Camberwell, England

    My broadband has gone down, so stuck watching QVC on Freeview.

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • JEFFREY03296741 JEFFREY PHILLIPS (@JEFFREY03296741) reported from Brentford, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

  • daguvernor tommy harper (@daguvernor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

  • djjohnyg Dj johny Garcia (@djjohnyg) reported from Richmond, England

  • niklasRen Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

  • shoxtl2 Carl (@shoxtl2) reported from Croydon, England

    @MyHydeHome @SCCIAlphatrack Not even sure how that's possible there's no record anyways over the weekend we lost signal for the communal aerial it has become very weak very pixelated can pick up the Freeview HD channels

  • RegenerateAndy Andy Smith (@RegenerateAndy) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Channel ‘Pick’ on freeview. Never heard of it before but grateful for it tonight #chelsea

  • vjlorenzato Victoria Lorenzato (@vjlorenzato) reported from Brentford, England

    Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  • omotforest david sinfield #pssc (@omotforest) reported from West Molesey, England

    To be honest, when you've removed the dependency of other real time tv, i cant see many people chipping in. Many will be paying just to watch their subscription service or Freeview.

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

  • maggieinlondon Maggie - wear a mask 💙🏳️‍🌈🌱 (@maggieinlondon) reported from Wandsworth, England

    With all this wall to wall coverage crap of a dead man by @skynews and @bbcnews Netflix and Freeview's viewing figures must be the highest they've ever been.

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • MartinC93414706 Martin (@MartinC93414706) reported from Lambeth, England

    @channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

  • flowergirl_lon Sam (Flower Girl) Jennings (@flowergirl_lon) reported from Croydon, England

    @GeorgeBollands @gemoore83 @BBCSport Ok… I have Now tv so don’t think I can get that but I’ll have a look. My regular freeview is crap as I don’t have an aerial, only have internet streamed TV.

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • Elizabeth_W1234 Liza Wilson (@Elizabeth_W1234) reported

    Sad to hear CBBC is shutting down. There’s not many kids’ channels on Freeview as is (or weren’t when I was a kid) & they made so many beloved shows. Such a shame

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @_DuncanFox_ Hi Duncan, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Freeview Reception. So, we can investigate this for you, can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

  • jssown bbygorl (@jssown) reported

    As a poor kid who grew up with just freeview and a full time working mum, the loss of CBBC just makes me insanely sad man

  • rosshawkes Ross (@rosshawkes) reported

    @JayneHowarth If they do this and stop airing PBS on Freeview, I'll never get my fix of random documentaries!

  • cm_scotland cm_scotland (@cm_scotland) reported

    @RespectIsVital @BBC An absolute disgrace, CBBC on FreeView should be a protected service for all

  • fawltytowers69 Joe Hart (@fawltytowers69) reported

    @jimalkhalili To be honest we haven’t been able to receive BBC4 on Freeview for years, and switched completely to watching BBC on iPlayer due to building work / Bilsdale burning down. Not sure we’ll ever go back to linear viewing. The times they are a’changing.

  • suffolk_1952 Chris Raynor (@suffolk_1952) reported

    @Geates @BBCLookEast I was a big BBC4 viewer but they lost me & a lot of viewers by not transmitting in HD on the Freeview platform from the Sudbury transmitter, ie. Ipswich. They always did on Freesat which I invested in back in 2004 as the analogue reception was awful.

  • PWispa Taylor! (@PWispa) reported

    @oocukkidstv No way, they bring back BBC Three only to immediately do this **** afterwards. Wtf are freeview kids who grew out of Cbeebies going to watch now? Pop?

  • wurzel260654 Sarah , Lucy,Nella and Wurzel . (@wurzel260654) reported

    @wohyeah_wohyeah @SkyNews Stop showing endless repeats. Same with freeview where you get the same drama twice a day and reshown countless times or a reality programme from the year dot. Mind you when you had little choice of channel, programmes were far better as was children's TV which today is garbage.

  • BeebStreem Beb (@BeebStreem) reported

    @OfficialCDJ Terrible news I remember coming home each day from school to plonk on CBBC, watching both you and Ian have some proper banter. The saddest thing is, as somebody who grew up poor couldn't afford streaming services or anything other than freeview TV.
