    @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

  • 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...😳

  • 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.

  • MaryMares81 mary whitfield (@MaryMares81) reported from Salford, England

    @FreeviewAdvice we have lost the majority of freeview channels having retuned a few times. Used the availability checker which says channels should be available, can you help? Thanks

  • karlmcintyre Karl McIntyre (@karlmcintyre) reported from St Helens, England

    @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.

    42 DAYS OF NO #Freeview but no one really gives a **** do they, not even #Freeview

  • word_soup Ian (@word_soup) reported

    @SuperRetroid Had that on my first freeview pvr & after the initial novelty had worn off I basically never used it.

  • BBQMeatLovers Janni A(long last name) (@BBQMeatLovers) reported

    @7AFL Dude. My Freeview TV isn’t getting a proper signal. Soo rip for me

  • JayDeeDaz Darren Stather (@JayDeeDaz) reported

    Been a year since CC w/ Google TV was released, still no All4 app. G TV sets are being released with catchup apps from Freeview Play rather than Play Store - and still not yet installed (TBC!). Awful UX. Same story with old Nexus Player. Amazon and Apple are now tempting. Shame.

  • alfaguru St Scandalbags (@alfaguru) reported

    @tubbsmcguire @SteveDoherty1 By "it" I meant Freeview, not an aerial. If you don't have an aerial there are indoor ones that work fine as long as you are in a good signal area.

  • Marc_Again Marc. AGAIN! (@Marc_Again) reported

    @VAS6323 She's on Freeview, but likes all of that treasure hunter crap. I just daisy chain them all together for her, and she now has 7 "potential tuners" Just like my old man, "maximum potential"

  • Christo20129392 Christopher Clinton (@Christo20129392) reported

    @TalkTalk Please can someone tell me why all of my Freeview channels are gone. Was on chat but then closed down before it was fixed!

  • KellyEdwards85 Kelly Edwards (@KellyEdwards85) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice i've had no freeview TV in Southampton area, SO14, since Wednesday last week. There is a picture and channels but not watchable due to poor signal cutting in and out. Please advise. Ive retuned many times and not resolved. ☹

  • FreeviewAdvice Freeview Advice (@FreeviewAdvice) reported

    @sminkypinky76 @The_X_Stitcher Hi, You could try and manually tune into one transmitter to avoid this issue. It would be dependent upon how your aerial is aligned. We would be happy to help. Please DM Freeview Advice your postcode, house name and number. Melissa
