  • D_Hollingsworth Dan Hollingsworth (@D_Hollingsworth) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    When did BBC4 HD. Leave Freeview? What a load of ****, missed a chunk of #TOTP and joining it late with Michael ruddy Jackson.

  • 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 😂

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • 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.

  • Dante_Banks Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England

    @tinytwink The poor shouldn't have anything they have to work for. Big screen TV - nope. Netflix - what's wrong with Freeview? Mobile phone - can't they walk to the phone box on the corner that was disconnected five years ago. They think if you're poor you should suffer or not be poor.

  • themib Martin Bentley, AKA Martin Bentley (@themib) reported from London, England

    Also, NXT UK will air on a weeks delay on the Paramount Network, which puts them on Freeview.

  • LILBUBBLE1 Bu88ble (@LILBUBBLE1) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @FreeviewAdvice I’ve been experiencing a lot of poor quality imaging/interruptions of my freeview in my area, Chingford, London. Also I’ve been able to DM you and I’m not sure why the system is not enabling it. It doesn’t bring up your company when I try

    @mac123_m You too poor to afford anything but Freeview? Too thick to read a book? You poor sod 🥴

  • BenVanDerVelde Ben Van Der Velde (@BenVanDerVelde) reported

    Internet is down, so forced to forage for a movie on Freeview. Stumbled on Equilibrium with Christian Bale and Sean Bean and woah baby is it incredibly silly dystopia. I have just watched a scene containing, and I can't believe I'm writing this, fascist tai chi.

  • TomDavi8165081 Tom1871 (@TomDavi8165081) reported

    Is anyone else having problems recording off of freeview? Things keep failing from the HD channels such as BBC One & ITV. I don't record off the HD channels, just the normal ones. I don't know why it keeps doing this. I retuned my freeview box to see if that helps.

  • themikeandrew Mike Andrew (@themikeandrew) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice might be a stupid question but how do I know if I can get Freeview on my TV? I have a Sony 2021 Google tv. Does it require an Aerial or scan via internet? Doesn't seem to be an app available. 🤦🏻🤔 I have sky but no Aerial to connect.

  • akadaz92 akadaz92 (@akadaz92) reported

    @YardleyShooting Just flip over now and again,ITV as bad so stayed on freeview. To much 24\7 even if you support the monarchy.

  • markrprior Mark Prior (@markrprior) reported

    @mativity @rfgwyther No sign of either ITT on the Freeview schedule for any of 9's channels. @sophoife said it is possible to add the StanSport trial to a Stan trial though. Doesn't help if you don't have the capability to watch Stan though.

  • RosChappell Ros Chappell 🇺🇦StandWithUkraine ⭐️UK Rejoin 🇪🇺 (@RosChappell) reported

    Does anyone know if Samsung Freesat tvs can receive Freeview like other tvs? I've been ping-ponged between @JohnLewisRetail customer services & technical support, who initially said did, then @SamsungSupport who said didn't, then JL say it needs a digital aerial. 🥴😵‍💫🌀😵

  • sheilatester Sheila Ennis (@sheilatester) reported

    @I__W______ I expect most of us are. Things not too bad except on #bbc1. I don't have Netflix but plenty to choose on Freeview.

  • Bute_Hoose Bute Hoose (@Bute_Hoose) reported

    @srobb68 @Boukalaki @garryhooper It won't happen..... Also, Freeview is a consortium of broadcasters (of which the BBC is only part)> Remove the BBC altogether then you'll just end up with crap adverts and a larger bill to pay whichever entity comes in to take over.

  • SkyHelpTeam Sky Help Team (@SkyHelpTeam) reported

    @FeralAtticus1 All Sky Q equipment is loaned out to our customers & would need to be returned. When you cancel the Sky TV services the box will not work at all. You would not even get Freeview channels through it. You only need to return the equipment which Sky asked you to return. Lainy
