    @Philips @philips_uk @FreeviewTV I recently purchased a Philips Ambilight 55PUS8204/12 55" Smart 4K Ultra HD HDR LED TV with Google Assistant does it support Freeview play as I can't get the apps to work.

    Pensioners, our TV broke down today, just ordered our first ever HD Freeview TV, paid a TV Licence for 50 years so why not embrace this technology we have paid the BBC for all these year @DefundBBC

  • NEFamilyFun Sam Rickelton | North East Family Fun (@NEFamilyFun) reported from Leeds, England

    @Sharon43068108 Very annoying! They are now showing the same match on BBC 1 AND 2. We are in a hotel room son only have Freeview. Going to watch Bridget Jones Diary on itv2 - I have my fingers crossed it's not too rude for the kids 🤣 (from what I remember, I think it's ok)

  • palyniam Paul O'Flynn (@palyniam) reported from Gildersome, England

    @HumaxUK only had this fvp-500t since 7th may 20 and its on the blink, freezes, losing recorded programs and Freeview is so slow. Has updates April 2019 but still poor. I would not recommend this at all.

  • SLCollindridge Sean Collindridge (@SLCollindridge) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @AmazonHelp I bought a Freeview PVR on my new Argos but have since decided I don't want it. It's still ready for collection at the Huddersfield store. What can I do to cancel this and have my card refunded

    @Emmalouisajones @SkyNews Poor retro-protest. You can't cancel Sky News. It's on Freeview.

  • MadenRon Ron Maden (@MadenRon) reported

    Tried watching #GBNews on #freeview 236. The picture quality/resolution is shockingly bad/low-resolution.

  • wubands2 wubands2 (@wubands2) reported

    @montie 1) Make sure your microphone works... 2) we also can hear the production team chatting on the iPad feed..... while Neil Olivers Mike failed.... 3) Freeview 236 sound not in sync with video.... 4) iPad feed is 30seconds behind live, time wrong 50% of time! Not 1 issue..4+

  • ByrneBarry Barry Byrne (@ByrneBarry) reported

    @At7dwarfs Not experiencing any problem like that. Set up a re tune on Freeview, should only take a few mins.

  • DrewDavies68 Drew Davies ™ (@DrewDavies68) reported

    @BorisJohnson_MP I just switched on GBnews on freeview and Neils mouth is out of sync with his voice. Microphones not working. And a set that looks like a portacabin toilet. Well that’s a good start. It’s antiques road show for me

  • chrislondon254 chris (@chrislondon254) reported

    @GBNEWS A few sound / voice / picture sync issues watching on freeview.

  • Alexand85266011 Alexander (@Alexand85266011) reported

    @femme_uk @GBNEWS Yes, few teething problems but I've always found Freeview less than reliable.

  • MJKN1GHT Michael Knight (@MJKN1GHT) reported

    @afneil @GBNEWS watching initial broadcast on Freeview 236 very poor screen image as SD, worth looking at streaming live on YouTube in HD otherwise poor experience for large audience. I have same issue with Sky on Freeview and they fortunately provide alternative on YouTube 👍

  • Lemonhunny Lemonhunny (Lesley) 💉💉💙💙 (@Lemonhunny) reported

    @TVRav Never mind the audio sync...on my TV (yes, I just remembered to go look!), I can't even get the picture. Every Freeview channel is fine (Sky news on right now), but GB News is just pixellated, squeaky mess.

  • PaulRutters Paul Rutterford (@PaulRutters) reported

    @scottjanaway @GBNEWS A few teething problems I would say - lip sync sorted 👍🏻 picture quality better on sky, but freeview very grainy. Set is very dark for sure @GBNEWS

  • richard__webb Richard Webb (@richard__webb) reported from Saint Annes on the Sea, England

    @GBNEWS i was so looking forward to it. But… on freeview the picture quality is really poor, sound is out of sync, and just feels like the sets are dark and badly lit. Took my focus away from listening to whats being projected. #GBNews
