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

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

  • 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.

  • daguvernor tommy harper (@daguvernor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

  • 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.

  • 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

    @DylanBurns1776 Because this is just an average day for U.K. football fans, our freeview TV is **** and this is the only source of free entertainment.

  • tvfanatics22 TVFanatics (TVF) (@tvfanatics22) reported

    Main server restart due to everyone having a melt down over a freeview channel on such a service. Sorry in advanced... but still 3-0 🙌🏻

  • BlitzExternals Blitz External Cleaning & Maintenance (@BlitzExternals) reported

    @FreeviewTV good evening - I have a new JVC tv but am unable to accept the Freeview term's and conditions which is stopping me using any apps... could ypu please help ? Many thanks

  • continueplayer2 Ricky Mason (@continueplayer2) reported

    @Aine090676 @channel5_tv England not working via satellite but is via freeview

  • richtea78 richtea78 (@richtea78) reported

    @p4G3y30 @MartinSLewis If you watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat), you need to be covered by a TV Licence. You don’t need a TV Licence if you never watch live on any channel, TV service or streaming service, or use BBC iPlayer*. On any device.

  • Miles_Devine Miles Devine (@Miles_Devine) reported

    @smarttowelrg Just checked there through Freeview. Not working either. Madness when you think about it.

  • Barfette Barfette (@Barfette) reported

    @VAS6323 Speaking as someone with ONLY terrestrial TV I find I spend most of my life watching Freeview repeats, weekends are the WORST and as for this fffg football on all channels ALL DAY................

  • rachelgmarks Sir Rachel Marks 🦟(imagine it's blue) (@rachelgmarks) reported

    @joeb_EY Analog TV has, I think, now been switched off everywhere, so you'll need to access Freeview. Check with your neighbours whether they get a Freeview signal - mountains can be pesky (bad enough where I am with gentle hills!). I solved it by getting a Roku Express to convert...

  • TheAwkwardGuy__ The Awkward Guy (@TheAwkwardGuy__) reported

    Anon: I'm sorry, mum and dad. The shelf in the living room didn't fall down because of dad's shoddy work or mum putting too many figurines on it. I hated them watching me while I was trying to enjoy the 10 minutes freeview so I pulled the shelf down. Sorry about the 20 year …

  • Prof_Plumtree Professor Plumtree (@Prof_Plumtree) reported

    @davehendon @eurosport @WeAreWST it isn't an issue to me as I can watch online, but why has freeview QUEST stopped showing the snooker?
