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

  • 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)

  • 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

  • k4bladesagain cheekfulloftongue🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@k4bladesagain) reported

    @GBNfans Still not a great picture on my freeview. Don't know if it's their end or just a weak signal but needs to be HD. Something to go up against question time on Thursdays. More variety/presenters...its starting to get a bit "samey" all the time.

  • Mizzach Stu Ford 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@Mizzach) reported

    @Wilson34David Any solution for freeview? It picks up my Glasgow area automatically.

  • GeorgeB06039033 Geo B (@GeorgeB06039033) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Why is HD on Freeview no where near as good a resolution as on cable?

  • hughster Hughster (@hughster) reported

    @vwcampervanaldr They've been paying for ads on it from day one. And no, I don't have issues with Skwawkbox/Canary because—and again, the TLDR of "poor analogy" applies—they're not Freeview TV news channels, not supposedly Ofcom regulated & not funded/promoted/defended by the government.

  • BrexitFoxy The People's Foxy 🦊 (@BrexitFoxy) reported

    @CraggsLewis @tvlicensing @tvlicensingnews If it's the live stream, as it's also a Freeview broadcast channel then yeah you need a TV licence. If you're just watching catch-up on-demand clips, then you don't need one. The law is stupid, but that's the way it is at the moment.

    @PaddyTaylor @itvhub Hi Paddy, So sorry you are still experiencing issues with your Freeview reception. Please start a DM to allow us to look into this further for you. Do you require the full frequencies for manual tuning? Kind Regards Melissa

  • mjCurnow Martin Curnow (@mjCurnow) reported

    Dad hasn’t been able to watch @GBNEWS. Can’t watch on freeview as their TV signal is poor so they watch everything through Sky. And it’s GB News HD & screen message is to ring to upgrade. I did tell him the picture quality has been pretty dire & an embarrassment to HD TV.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • BillyKane0 Billy #Doom Kane (@BillyKane0) reported

    @GBNEWS You still have sound issues on Freeview, sync, echoes and low volume
