  • budgie Lee 'Budgie' Barnett (@budgie) reported from Richmond, England

    @DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • ProfJohnEllis John Ellis (@ProfJohnEllis) reported from Egham, England

    @MariaMichalis @All4 C4 is in talks to join Britbox... and you get surveillance on any streaming service, even ad funded. That’s how they can target the ads and tell you where your nearest car dealership is (new in All4). Only Freeview lets you keep anonymity

  • 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

  • Marmalord Marmalord (the) (@Marmalord) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @itvhub Humax FVP-4000T 1TB Freeview Set Top Box Recorder, and having to sign in more or less every time is making us all dislike Martin Freeman

  • 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😡

  • Beige29 Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    @loudouglas75 I have such shit freeview I only have itv2+1

  • Beige29 DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

  • PhilipMichaelC2 Philip Michael Chapman (@PhilipMichaelC2) reported from Croydon, England

    @PanasonicUK I have Panasonic Viera TV set now the Sony Crime Channel on Freeview channel 40 has moved to channel 60 but when I click on 60 all I get is Loading Interactive Service then the screen goes blank can you help me please or send an engineer

  • Beige29 Dark_Beige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    @Disco_Squirrel I’ve got the shitty EE freeview box and it’s one of the apps on there, but never used

  • 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.

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

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

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

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

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • Putneyman Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @LushJEL I'm not much of a TV person as I don't really like it, but I found channel 83 on Freeview TV which is NOW The 80s, so some nights I just have it on in the background, lots of crap but also some good old ones 👍

  • 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.

  • julie_scan Dr. Julie Scanlon (@julie_scan) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Hi, My TV is displaying ‘no signal’ this evening. Is there a problem with Freeview ? Or perhaps it is something else at my end. Thanks.

  • alan_shaefer Alan Shaefer 3.5% 💙 (@alan_shaefer) reported

    @LIAMREILLY20 @BradleyBooks Damn! I like Alec Guinness as well. Will keep an eye out for it, they tend to get repeated on a regular basis on the Freeview channels.

  • LGUK LG UK (@LGUK) reported

    @dxtzzz Hi Dean, Freeview HD (the live channels) is available, but our 2020 models are unlikely to be getting Freeview Play (the catch-up apps). We are currently working directly with the broadcasters to support these though. (1/2)

  • SarahRosemary3 Sarah Rosemary (@SarahRosemary3) reported

    @ks_1968 Dunno. Just thought - I bet she has seen them all. ( I love classic films but no TV set/ freeview box & satellite coverage here is poor for streaming so no Hallmark channel . Maybe Elon Musk's new initiative will change this for people like us here)

  • DrAndrewR Andrew (@DrAndrewR) reported

    @TheRealRevK @LGUK Sony are at it too. After buying the TV you have to accept the terms and conditions of data processing or it won’t let you watch anything. To this day I haven’t tuned the thing for freesat or freeview as I refuse to accept the awful terms.

  • DavidBridger David Bridger #BlackLivesMatter (@DavidBridger) reported

    @emsquare_d @CyclingLain We can't get a signal downstairs so watch Freeview upstairs (which we're happy with) and Virgin downstairs. It's that or Sky, which we can't bring ourselves to get because Murdoch. Virgin's business ethos pisses us off, but between that and Sky it's the lesser of two evils.

  • PaulFrame85 "Welcome to Handforth" (@PaulFrame85) reported

    Stupid question l know but how much does it cost to get a TV station on to Freeview?

  • WooTube Andy Wootton (@WooTube) reported

    @CarlaDoris Manhattan T1 Freeview box £35, if your PC had HDMI-in. Bought my boy the satellite version because had Sky dish but crap TV reception.

  • Stickings90 Graeme Stickings (@Stickings90) reported

    @FreeviewTV Is there a problem in the NE4 area with Freeview. @YesterdayTweets on channel 26 started breaking up. I tried retuning my TV but it is still breaking up and now I can't get Sony channel on channel 49.

  • benjamat10 Ask yourself❌ 🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@benjamat10) reported

    @markadayofdays Oh how very euro. Won't be watching yet again . Wake up people, cancel those licence fees . You can fully set up Freesat for less cost and get better programmes and more choice . That's Freesat, not Freeview which can have reception problems .
