  • PurpleDon1973 MadameCholet (@PurpleDon1973) reported from Ilford, England

    Some days I really wish I'd kept all those calls to @JimDavisOnAir on my freeview box. I've been sent way back in time with a USB memory stick, a few years back with some calls. Damn, I really miss those days with the song choice and #JimDavisLive And it was just brilliant radio

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

  • MartinC93414706 Martin (@MartinC93414706) reported from Lambeth, England

    @channel5_tv is the worst for catch up tv via your app or freeview. Just can’t find programmes sometimes. Trying to find Sally Lindsays posh sleepover. C4, itv and BBC never ever have a problem with. I give up with C5

  • JEFFREY03296741 JEFFREY PHILLIPS (@JEFFREY03296741) reported from Brentford, England

    @TalkingPicsTV Hello. Watching at about 4.35 pm on Monday 24th the Sky TV picture was completely lost from your channel and went off air. All other channels were fine. Also okay on Freeview but I missed the end of the film. At 4.48 pm it is still without a, signal. What's up?

  • shoxtl2 Carl (@shoxtl2) reported from Croydon, England

    @MyHydeHome @SCCIAlphatrack Not even sure how that's possible there's no record anyways over the weekend we lost signal for the communal aerial it has become very weak very pixelated can pick up the Freeview HD channels

  • djjohnyg Dj johny Garcia (@djjohnyg) reported from Richmond, England

    @itvhub Hello, I can’t seem yo be able to watch Live tv on the itv Hub on my Sony Android smart Tv. model Sony 49 KD49XH8196BU Smart 4K UHD LED Freeview TV, can you help please? @SonyTV @Sony

  • flowergirl_lon Sam (Flower Girl) Jennings (@flowergirl_lon) reported from Croydon, England

    @GeorgeBollands @gemoore83 @BBCSport Ok… I have Now tv so don’t think I can get that but I’ll have a look. My regular freeview is crap as I don’t have an aerial, only have internet streamed TV.

  • summers_allan Allan Kempson (@summers_allan) reported from Romford, England

    @talkSPORT @Sjopinion10 That's a bad idea. Sky have rights to other sports too, so a netflix football service would be yet another thing to pay for if you like multiple sports. More football needs to be on freeview channels like BBC and ITV.

  • 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.

  • Stroudgreenguy J. Alfred Prufrock (@Stroudgreenguy) reported from Tottenham, England

    @Channel4 Hello. Can I watch Channel 4 *live* through the All 4 app on smart TV? All I see is catchup. I would like to watch CH 4 news every night but my aerial is broken, no Freeview. Please advise.

  • adrianatkins196 adrian atkins (@adrianatkins196) reported from Crayford, England

    Time for the BBC to close down the BBCNews channel as they always seem to put it on BBC1 at same time WHY as BBCNews is available on sky freesat and freeview you dont need it on BBC1

  • XtopherCalvert Christmas Calvert (he/him) (@XtopherCalvert) reported from Poplar, England

    Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  • u0421793 Ian K Tindale (@u0421793) reported from East Ham, England

    The Good, the Bad and The Ugly is just starting now on Paramount network freeview 32

  • maggieinlondon Maggie - wear a mask 💙🏳️‍🌈🌱 (@maggieinlondon) reported from Wandsworth, England

    With all this wall to wall coverage crap of a dead man by @skynews and @bbcnews Netflix and Freeview's viewing figures must be the highest they've ever been.

  • 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.

  • coulson3000 Hank Moody (@coulson3000) reported from Kensington, England

    I will never have normal freeview tv

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Loundshay Jane Tatam (@Loundshay) reported

    @Andy_hhh @Serendipity_03_ @VNotmeat Actually RT was not shut down by the UK. It has been affected by a ban imposed by the European Union. Although the UK is no longer in the EU, the bloc applied sanctions to satellite companies in Luxembourg and France, which provided the RT feed to Sky, Freesat and Freeview.

  • BananaEzzy12 The Ice Cream Man (@BananaEzzy12) reported

    The thing is with being British and having freeview tv there’s not many ppl I can relate to in cartoons and ****

  • TBeaterson Thom Beaterson (@TBeaterson) reported

    @John_BHarvey Spender never seems to get the same repeat treatment that some other shows from that era get on freeview (or does it?) A shame - I imagine it still stands up.

  • johnsouthwales JohnWales (@johnsouthwales) reported

    Freeview channel 234 RT. This service is currently not available..Was going to have a look and see what George Galloway and co say about it

  • pipmadeley Pip (@pipmadeley) reported

    @cooraysmith Read a lot of people having the same issue. The Freeview website said we've recently had engineering works in the area, the signals were pretty solid before that.

  • ioloj Iolo Jones (@ioloj) reported

    @gaeilge2036 @carolecadwalla @BBC The EU closed down the EU controlled sat feed, so Sky, Virgin, Freeview et al can’t provide a service. If it was down to Boris & Dorries no doubt it would still be live, as it is over the internet. Also, I think that most Tories would argue that the BBC isn’t state controlled.

  • lee_alley Lee Alley (@lee_alley) reported

    I see RT's down on Freeview in the UK.

  • ShaneRosser20 Shane Rosser (@ShaneRosser20) reported

    I never watch the mainstream media news channels on virgin media or Freeview TV besides there are other channels that people can watch and I'm watching now 90s music channel on virgin media TV right now.

  • LostGlasgow Lost Glasgow (@LostGlasgow) reported

    Odd, channel hopping, and come to Freeview 56 - 5Select - and up pops Britain's Great Rivers: Then and Now - The Clyde. Waiting to see what I said a few years back, when I froze my bollocks off, being interviewed down opposite the Finnieston Crane. TV - oh, the glamour...

  • pandorasrockbox Miryam Pan D'ora Rae ~ PandorasRockBox (@pandorasrockbox) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice freeview Crystal palace not working? I have no signal at all. Don't watch much especially since RT NEWS gone but wanted to see what's on: NOW NO SIGNAL. BTW i am shocked freeview removed RT . I called ofcom & they said it was free view who removed it NOT ofcom
