  • 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.

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

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

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

    @nowtvhelp I still got my old with the built-in Freeview TV all that still work and I do I'll come back to you because I transferred my account to BT I Wish I Never now if that box doesn't work I have to buy my NOW TV stick from you?

  • 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.

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

    Catholic Twitter UK- help please! Anyone know of a Mass being broadcast on TV tomorrow ( not via internet) Lovely elderly lady has Freeview but no internet.... TIA!

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

    @Forces_TV hi guys having a few problems with your freeview picture in London it freezes or breaks up had it since Friday

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

    I will never have normal freeview tv

  • 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

  • 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

  • Tommy_M_E_J Tom Jordan (@Tommy_M_E_J) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @njvns That’s so shit. It’s literally called freeview and yet it’s not free

  • RegenerateAndy Andy Smith (@RegenerateAndy) reported from Wandsworth, England

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

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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

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

    My broadband has gone down, so stuck watching QVC on Freeview.

  • 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.

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    @FreeviewAdvice hi there. Please see DMs sent to Freeview account asking for support with channels that don't show (weird D sign with \ on it next to them) including Sky News, Pick and others. Many thanks

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

    @bt_uk I got a problem it's not my fault and it's not BT issue I lost a lot of Freeview channels in my flat I went to no cancel and said you can have a dish because aerials are very bad in your area where you live we've had a lot of people coming to us about the same problem

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  • 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

  • AvanceBusiness Avance Business Technology (@AvanceBusiness) reported

    @charliepick @ABCaustralia 1) So the ABC doesn't pay you a wage? 2) Yep great, so make it opt in. Forcing it on us is my issue. If I miss the news being broadcast on Freeview without the need to sign in why the hell should I need to sign in to watch it through an app 3) no data is safe

  • RichardSandlan3 Richard Sandland 💙 (@RichardSandlan3) reported

    @RailwaymenThe I have Freesat rather than Freeview which means even this service is unavailable.

  • William35473987 William Gould (@William35473987) reported

    @LGUK @Kevin89890344 This is really poor service from LG. Some effort should be made to upgrade 2020 TVs to Freeview Play. Everyone who has purchased a 2020 TV has paid the same amount as someone who bought an LG TV in any other year.

  • alison1010 Alison (@alison1010) reported

    @Stewart71608150 😠 We never get any decent sport on Freeview channels any more because of them.

  • SuzanneRobins1 Suzanne Robins (@SuzanneRobins1) reported

    @philquin Looks like Freeview isn't available to me, though. They don't do an app for the Apple TV decoder (which is what I use with what is now described as an "older" smart TV). Well, that sucks!

  • lilastromech mischajaye (@lilastromech) reported

    Are any of my friends/mutuals in Liverpool having problems with Freeview? All of my TV aerial channels have been missing since this morning 😕

  • JohnPHealy John Healy (@JohnPHealy) reported

    @stroughtonsmith @stacktracepod Hi there. I’ve just stumbled across this tweet, and I think this satellite TV app is something I need in my life! I’m looking for a way to access my saorview and freeview channels from any Apple TV on my network. Is that what this is? If so, I would be super interested.

  • gazpunch Gary Phillips 💙 (@gazpunch) reported

    Cup Final day and my Freeview signal is going all 💩y again 😭

  • rikdattadotcom Rik ☼︎ 🇮🇳 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@rikdattadotcom) reported

    @BJElsey_ @GBNEWS I've never seen so much hype and so little information. Information about when is it actually going to start and apart from Freeview, WHERE ELSE? I'm losing any enthusiasm I had.

  • Dr_Plinius Dr 💙 A. Heuer (@Dr_Plinius) reported

    Wretched Freeview! Why can’t they put the normal channel, and the channel+1 next to each other in the listings! You have to scroll down into the yonder channels to find the +1s!!!! And why isn’t there are BBC1+1 and BBC2+1????
