    People who have Freeview - is it just a one off cost for the box or subscription and can you record stuff? (Am trying to figure out tv options and can't get virgin and sky i think you need a dish. Aerial is crap here)

    I have tried a few times to get GB news on my television up here in Perth Scotland but been unable successful. I have freeview and I believe it is channel 236 I also have a smart TV and digital aerial so that shouldn't be an issue ,has anyone else been having the same issue ?

    @JakeWSimons Was taken off British freeview TV a few years ago. Surprised it was still available in the US. Can think of at least one other network that should also be removed from standard freeview in the UK.

  • VLeggeri ViaggiareLeggeri (@VLeggeri) reported

    Dear @FreeviewTV , You know how bad it feels, when you discover cat poo in the middle of your living room? Today I found GB News on Freeview, on my TV. Same feeling. Can you please clean up? @GBNews_Fails

  • TheScottishTra1 The Scottish Traveller (@TheScottishTra1) reported

    So here's a thing, would the argument, Freeview is advertised as free and never mentions the required TV Licence stand up in a Court? Afterall, it's out there enforcing the false statement, "It's FREE" #DefundTheBBC

  • DaMisanthrope Alan Wen (@DaMisanthrope) reported

    I never even use ITV’s other channels and suspiciously can’t find ITV4 on freeview. But it’s on the ITV hub app. Bah, I don’t care anyway. Got other stuff to do this evening.

    @FreeviewAdvice @CWiddowfield_61 Hey Freeview I got a indoor Ariel but can't get any hd channels and I'm getting rather annoyed by how many I can get here in Barry ,vale of Glamorgan it's crap

  • BrianPr94091114 GW4DVB (@BrianPr94091114) reported

    @GBNEWS The quality of your signal on Freeview is appalling -any chance you can go HD ?<

  • CilantroElPerro Ryan Richardson (@CilantroElPerro) reported

    @Ambraneri You would think so, but a cursory Google suggests ITV 4 HD doesn't exist on Freeview and my TV seems to agree. Really you'd think HD would just be the standard now. There's barely any point broadcasting football in SD it looks that bad.

  • Raxor1Robin Robin Taylor (At home 🏡) (@Raxor1Robin) reported

    Just got some co-axile connecters for my #freeview problem modern ones are not as wide, so they don't work, wish I still had that box of them I had in 1985 but they got lost when we moved house back then. #OhDear

  • Geoff_NUFC GPM (@Geoff_NUFC) reported

    @JustCraggles @virginmedia @BlueYonder I had the same, went from paying £40 a month to nearly £70. Dropped the TV because its ****, I was on the basic TV which is pretty much freeview. Went to sky for TV and was going to take the sky broadband until they gave me a reduced price. Its worth complaining about.
