    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 😂

  • 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.

  • a11who Gary Percival (@a11who) reported

    @TPTVEncore Hi folks. This may be a silly question but does the red button service work on a Freeview TV that isn't connected to wi-fi? My brother lives in north Wales and can get @TalkingPicsTV but has no wi-fi or even a landline. Should he be able to use the red button still?

  • ETusty Emma T (@ETusty) reported

    No freeview signal again. So annoying because we can watch online but you have to know which channel you want to go onto.

  • 2_Wheeled_Wolf @2_Wheeled_Wolf @ mastodon.social 🇪🇺 (@2_Wheeled_Wolf) reported

    @TheBlueUlysses #ScourgeOfTheTVChannels & this **** Daily Fail wannabe TV show both are blocked & not available on my freeview recorders & TVs.

  • ShiftDirk Owen Dirkshift (@ShiftDirk) reported

    @virginmedia @neilspellings That's just not true! I got rid of you because your service was expensive, inefficient and slow. I get better from Freeview and Netflix, and ASDL is much faster than your lowest fibre broadband, and supports just as many devices. And all at a fraction of the price.

  • brianwinteruk Brian Winter (@brianwinteruk) reported from Hipswell, England

    @Stuart_Linnell @BBCOne @bbcmtd Only on Sky and Freesat. Freeview to follow, by end of April, but not down to each region. Only same as ITV. The HD multiplex cannot be fully regionslised

  • bigwows Bigwows is elsewhere too (🦣🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿)💚🤍💜 (@bigwows) reported

    @virginmedia Last I looked, inflation was at 10%, not over 30%. ‘Excellent value for money’ is a claim only customers can make, not you. We mostly watch the BBC and Netflix, so why pay 4 x what Netflix charge when there’s Freeview and iPlayer for a hundred channels that never get watched?

  • poddys Tony Payne 🌊🌊 (@poddys) reported

    @mags324 Same here really. We have old aerials up on the roof but no good for digital tv. I have an indoor one that works with Freeview but once I retire and we need to cut down on tv costs, I will probably get a decent one put on the roof and stop paying for tv.

  • poddys Tony Payne 🌊🌊 (@poddys) reported

    @AidWarwickshire It's always good to have alternatives. Can't watch live tv as we don't have an aerial. Looking to fix that after retirement as freeview seems a good option to cut down on our costs.

  • daval13 Alma Masters (@daval13) reported

    @stevemulder888 @BBC1 Yes same problem have switched to freeview

  • DMarkymarc DJ_Markymarc 💙 👏😷🚀 (@DMarkymarc) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice hi can you help, we seem to have lost our Freeview analogue signal. And it looks like the problem is on the transmitter side.
