  • Beige29 DarkBeige (@Beige29) reported from Merton, England

    Now I have the truly truly shit @EE freeview package (literally the worst selection of channels on earth but boy is it cheap broadband) I only watch the main 5 channels or SVOD. W, Dave, ITV2 etc are dead to me

  • PlexNetflix Martin Phillp 🔶 (@PlexNetflix) reported from Camberwell, England

    My broadband has gone down, so stuck watching QVC 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

  • niklasRen Nik Rahmel (@niklasRen) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @Stephen_Neal Good shout! If we just take the Freeview/Freesat ones, we get to ten, excluding the National ones: 1) BBC One 2) BBC Two 3) BBC Four 4) CBBC 5) CBeebies 6) BBC News 7) BBC Parliament 8) Dave 9) Drama 10) Yesterday But they aren’t licence fee funded, so don’t help the argument.

  • AStrangerJ A.j. Stranger #UTAG (@AStrangerJ) reported from Bromley, England

    On the Freeview “REALLY” channel at 9pm, “Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?”. I’ve never seen it before, but I bet the answers not Jeffrey Epstein.

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @PayneB44 @tomhfh @BBC Your point was you want a break from it. There’s 1000s of channels, Freeview, YouTube, Sky, NOWTV, Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, BRITBOX DVDs, Blu-rays. Boxsets. There’s never been so much content to take your mind off it. Or just turn the telly off.

  • budgie Lee 'Budgie' Barnett (@budgie) reported from Richmond, England

    @DrRacheal @FreeviewTV When I had problems with Freeview, I found their helpline - when I eventually managed to get through to someone - very helpful. Took me step-by-step through the stuff I could check and solved it for me.

  • 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

  • vjlorenzato Victoria Lorenzato (@vjlorenzato) reported from Brentford, England

    Channel ‘Pick’ on freeview. Never heard of it before but grateful for it tonight #chelsea

  • crazycol Colin Wiseman (@crazycol) reported from Ealing, England

    @stevieboywise If that’s Freeview maybe due to high pressure issue again.

  • JasonBudd70 JasonBudd (@JasonBudd70) reported from Totton and Eling, England

    @thebedfordfox @DAZNBoxing Noticed this myself when paying,a little bit sly, but noticed was entering a monthly agreement on paying the £24.99,so made sure went in next morning to cancel ,DAZN then just leave you on the Freeview stuff..hopefully they realise this sly tactic next time pisses the public off

  • TommyTucker091 Tommy Tucker (@TommyTucker091) reported

    @CapelLofft Never underestimate them. A good way to combat it is feing ignorance. You don't have a smartphone, you have no computers. Never been much into that stuff. You just have a plain telly and freeview box. No internet. And you don't have BBC, or a smart meter.

  • Twobob_bits twobob (@Twobob_bits) reported

    @PurzBeats Do I invest or keep it under my bed? *Sucks teeth* if only I had 4 pairs of legs I could wear all my favourite kicks at one time Freeview? Nooooooooooooooooooo *Platoon arms*

  • LindaMagui48909 Linda MacLoofah II (@LindaMagui48909) reported

    @sallyhoult1 @PeacefulUntree And those that say William and Catherine watched Suits are off their rockers. It was allegedly shown on a Freeview channel called Dave. Now I've watched Dave, but I've never even seen Suits advertised, never mind broadcast.
