  • margatesunsets Fiona K. (@margatesunsets) reported from Margate, England

    @dancludlow Never thought of it even. Not that worried, there'll be a solution. It supposedly has Freesat & Freeview on it. Will have to try to get D's son out here, if he ever stays still, he'll know! TV is 2020 model, hardly top of the range but good enough for me.

  • TinaEEWatts Tina Watts (@TinaEEWatts) reported from Canterbury, England

    @downdetector our film 4 snd film 4 +1 had gone down on freesat (not freeview)

    @FreeviewAdvice hi I have lost BBC on Freeview is there any problems?

  • petrolheadtoo Not Gary (@petrolheadtoo) reported

    The first 12 minutes of Sky (freeview) news at 1pm today in the UK was about a trial in the USA. I am so glad i do not pay for this rubbish. I know they are owned by the same company (Comcast) as a major USA woke network

  • batrobi Goingincognito 3.5% FBPE 🖤🇪🇺🇮🇹🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈 (@batrobi) reported

    @Philips No unfortunately. Lots of going around in circles. Searched the web & it seems lots of people are having same problem with aspect ratio in smart/on demand/freeview play mode, and no solution. Settings changes don’t apply. Maybe a bug on your OS? I returned and went for Samsung 😢

  • chrisalfw Chris Williams (@chrisalfw) reported

    @PhilWilliams These channels have not said no, they have said they havent been approached as yet. I opposed the creation of the Premier League but i support this Super League. Inevitable it will be on a streaming provider rather than Freeview, Cable or Satellite.

    Gutted that I had to cancel Virgin Media — I couldn’t afford it this month and can’t afford a proper Freeview box to record shows! I hate being skint

  • susanna_tayler Susanna Tayler (@susanna_tayler) reported

    @HumaxUK I have an HDR-1800T Freeview recorder and I can't watch the programme I'm recording because there's no sound. Very disappointing. Is there a fix for this?

  • H_MOORE4 Hugh (@H_MOORE4) reported

    @SBunching I disagree, more football is available to watch than ever but virtually none is on free to air. 1st Prem game I watched live was actually in a stadium, we didn’t have Sky in my house so I never had the opportunity. I became a fan through FA cup and champs league games on freeview

  • Fetzie_ Tom AkA Fetzie (@Fetzie_) reported

    @stnapirrem @LukeEdwardsTele Sky is tied to a multi year deal. And if they left the market and football goes back on Freeview, is that such a bad thing?

  • Barfette Barfette (@Barfette) reported

    @helen_spirit1 Only watched couple times usually watch Sky News/ Freeview, signal been bad. BBC 1 is GHASTLY in my opinion, but I happenend upon GMB the actual day that Piers Morgan walked out. I now find it absolute garbage. Same league IMO as Schofield, Willoughby, Hammond and O'Leary.

  • DSheight DwightSheight (@DSheight) reported

    @SamanthaMalin When we're over in Spain we've got a Freeview box with only about 8 or 9 channels that actually work. It's bliss. And we wind up watching stuff we never normally would in the UK with our 20 million Sky channels & Netflix. It really takes the pressure off so I get that totally.
