  • quodignoratum Myles Winstone (@quodignoratum) reported from Warrington, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Definitely. We struggle getting Freeview and as you’re not on BT TV I’m missing my fix!

  • 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

    @drewhill79 @VodafoneUK @MattJConnor @StHKHIS Same here. BT got the 150 mb and it flies. Good support and I stream everything!! Don’t even have normal freeview.

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

  • annmurphy_wigan Ann Murphy (@annmurphy_wigan) reported from Wigan, England

    @FreeviewAdvice Well, after waiting 2 weeks for a Freeview engineer we are told we need a new aerial. Also, they can’t help us because we have Sky! So they change Winter Hill and now we have to pay. Why didn’t they say this 3 weeks ago...😳

  • OfficialRUFC Rotherham United (@OfficialRUFC) reported

    FREEVIEW | My main aim is to help the team - Blackett Tyler Blackett sat down with iFollow Millers after penning a deal until the end of the 2022/23 campaign. #rufc | #ForeverTogetherForeverProud

  • SmallCurtains Jen (@SmallCurtains) reported

    Has anyone else's #FREEVIEW signal disappeared?

  • space_librarian Lorna Robertson (@space_librarian) reported

    @angefitzpatrick @libmichelle I have lived IN Edinburgh for the past 12 years. Our last house is on the edge of the city but definitely in it. On rainy days Freeview only picked up 4 TV channels and when we moved out in 2019 there was still no cable so internet was glacially slow.

  • stone_cabin Stone Cabin (@stone_cabin) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Freeview TV reception has been awful in Portsmouth for months. It's getting worse. Please do something about it, your service is a joke.

  • juedan3 Julie (@juedan3) reported

    @ToshibaUSA when will the software be updated for the fire TV I purchased from @ArgosHelpers in October 22 re the picture flickering black. You say it's an issue with Freeview and the software on the tv

  • gurncrop gurncrop (@gurncrop) reported

    @AboutEG Might be worth following @DowndetectorUK. You will get alerts for things you don't care about, but it was a great early warning for today's Twitter problems, and that recent Freeview outage - answers the "is it just me?" question.

  • MarkSzczepansk3 Mark szczepanski (@MarkSzczepansk3) reported

    Couldn't get a good Freeview signal anyway

  • marfarfarquhar Martha (@marfarfarquhar) reported

    @johubris @jarrod__baker Ok I feel like a bit of an idiot, but it transpires the Freeview app is actually working on our tv now. I thought it’d been canned but I seem to have live tv.

  • Pawsaldo Pawsaldo the Unlucky Navy Breacher (@Pawsaldo) reported

    @Anth_Peace @JewelKnightJess its on Freeview, also they have their own on demand service that is free.

  • reviewsdino2 Dino’s Reviews (@reviewsdino2) reported

    @CaptainPikeachu @LeahyMichael43 It was so bad that UK Netflix got rid of it after three seasons and it had to be shown on freeview tv until Paramount+ debuted. It was purely made so a streaming service could have content.
