  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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!

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

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

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

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

  • 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

  • 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😡

  • 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

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

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

  • 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 👍

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • sugarcanebook E. E. Fry (@sugarcanebook) reported

    @virginmedia Also, losing all of our recorded programmes and movies yet again, unable to pre record any Xmas TV or movies, losing all of our favourites and our series links. FreeView and catch up have rendered the Tivo service sold to us as obsolete and we've not been offered any compensation

  • CharlesLebord charles lebord (@CharlesLebord) reported

    @chemalino @Johnnypapa64 THANKS BARRY, I GET UK DRAMA, NOT GOLD ON MY FREEVIEW, BUT WITHOUT FAIL BBC2 OR DRAMA SHOW THEM EVERY YEAR,

  • FreeviewTV Freeview (@FreeviewTV) reported

    @toyhaul @JeffBezos Hi, Freevee is not Freeview sorry. You would need to contact the platform you use Freevee on for support with this. Thank you, Melissa

  • E17Observatory Walthamstow Observatory (@E17Observatory) reported

    Hi @plex, Seasons Greetings to you all. I'm looking to add a USB TV device to my @NVIDIASHIELD, I'd prefer to use Freesat as it's better quality than Freeview but @HauppaugeHQ say you don't support DVB-S - is this likely to change anytime soon - especially as DVB-T is at risk?

  • HewiEdwards Wayne Edwards (@HewiEdwards) reported

    @UKTVPlayHelp Hi, it is via the Freeview Play platform, which is a pre-installed app. There is no dedicated UKTV Play app in the Philips Saphi app store. The problem seems to occur on all UKTV channels. The last time it was working, was probably about 1 month ago, that I can remember.

  • ChonjiGraham Graham Pitkin (@ChonjiGraham) reported

    @robbeckettcomic So not on Freeview? Can't. Oh well, never mind.

  • SofiaAkinJourno Sofia (@SofiaAkinJourno) reported

    Are you in support of the strikes? A YouGov poll revealed which union has the most support and which has the least support. 🚂 We’ll be asking Rochester residents today— watch Kent Tonight this evening to find out the results! 17:30-18:30. 🎥 Freeview 7 // Virgin 159

  • jonhughes_72 Jon (@jonhughes_72) reported

    What is it with feeling like crap and the correlation with crap TV. Can't be doing with Netflix or films, but instead I'm in the depths of freeview staring at family fortunes and a place in the sun.

  • WhenIsBirths Justin Lewis (whenisbirths@tooting.ch) (@WhenIsBirths) reported

    Still can't quite believe Cleese, who could have worked for almost any TV network in the world over the past 25 years, is going to do something for something at the arse-end of Freeview that no serious journalist or broadcaster would go near.

  • TheAndrewF Andrew F (@TheAndrewF) reported

    There's an old Benny Hill show on one of those cheapo Freeview channels. Obviously it's dodgy by today's standards, but more than that... it's just crap. So much for TV's golden age.
