  • LILBUBBLE1 Bu88ble (@LILBUBBLE1) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

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

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

  • Dante_Banks Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England

    @tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

  • uptownclub Franky uptownclub (@uptownclub) reported from Harlow, England

    @Virgin how do I go about leaving Virgin because I'm paying roughly £63.50 a month for a phone that I never use only to ring you up when there's a problem.. most of my viewing is on Freeview now and I have Amazon HD fire stick and Netflix account

  • psnow85 Peter Snow (@psnow85) reported from Arkley, England

    @Samantha_J_Rea Hmm not to sure about freeview but definitely freesat it’s been taken off for over a year. Probably the same though. Sucks big time. Anyway. Hope you are well.

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • PhilMcBoobs Philip McHale (@PhilMcBoobs) reported from Barnet, England

    @jonnyt78 Not at all. Was supposed to be awful except from some certain sections of the media. Some of the games were of freeview over here as well, I didn’t have a clue

  • 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 😂

  • Stroudgreenguy J. Alfred Prufrock (@Stroudgreenguy) reported from Tottenham, England

    @Channel4 Hello. Can I watch Channel 4 *live* through the All 4 app on smart TV? All I see is catchup. I would like to watch CH 4 news every night but my aerial is broken, no Freeview. Please advise.

  • qvcuk QVC UK (@qvcuk) reported

    @avraam2000 Hi Maria, apologies for any disappointment. If your TV does not support HD content, you can still watch via your aerial (i.e. Freeview) as we will still be in SD for there. We also have online streaming available via the QVC app or using the desktop version of our website. Joe

  • SimplyMetric Kevin Hall 🇪🇺 🇺🇦 ☮️ (@SimplyMetric) reported

    @janmicham @RobertCooksley3 @lionelbarber It'll remain free to view but it'll be an emaciated stick figure showing 30 year old repeats of Countdown. Have a look down the Freeview TV guide for what this brave new world looks like.

  • ProperChelsPete Peter H (@ProperChelsPete) reported

    @BlueTinted_LB @sidcelery @grahamefendle HD channels on Freeview usually better than equivalent on Freesat as there’s no compression. (I always switch from satellite to freeview to watch stuff on bbc for this reason) *signal can degrade so depends on distance from transmitter and other disclaimers.

  • firebird7X3 Firebird7x3 #FBPE #FBPA #FBPR #FBPPR #StuffBrexit (@firebird7X3) reported

    @Helenmacca @helenamayb @NadineDorries They both make a lot of content these days but channel four already does that Big question is will it become subscription outside the TV licence in which case they will be depriving Freeview viewers of several channels & an online streaming service, hardly fair & worth pushing

  • DSkippings Darren Skippings (@DSkippings) reported

    This privatisation of Ch4, would include the stake in freeview that is part owned between BBC, ITV and CH4, another terrible idea, from our government of terrible ideas.

  • GordyPls iGordy 2.0 (@GordyPls) reported

    I got a new TV and now standard free to air TV looks terrible because streaming services understand nice TVs exist and Freeview appears to basically have ignored everything that happened in TVs since about 2007.

  • sidcelery Sid Celery (@sidcelery) reported

    @grahamefendle Also, Freeview is brilliant tbh. Pretty much the same as Virgin's basic package but without the porno and selling channels. Also allows me to delete channels such as that mongo GB News cuntery full of spastic propagandist gimps. **** them all. This is the way to go imo.

  • noneedforgreed Dan 🔶🎪 #Resist #FBPA #FBPPR #StandWithUkraine (@noneedforgreed) reported

    @Andrea25079843 We default to Netflix on such occasions, for content. We also make extensive use of Freeview and iPlayer to serve we parents and our juniors' TV ration. I can't speak to what specific content floats your boat Andrea, but Netflix is our go to subscription and cancel service.

  • ronniet240 Ronnie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 totally 🇬🇧 (@ronniet240) reported

    @toryman1979 We use to have Sky but realised we were paying to watch advertising when we could get for free on FreeView. No point paying twice for the same crap!

  • HurstLlama Hurst Llama (@HurstLlama) reported

    @bedford_colleen I think our TV is 40 something inches, had it a good few years but I've never watched it. Herself, who does watch TV, dumped Sky years ago - not worth the money she said; now uses something called Freeview (?).
