    @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

    @LushJEL I'm not much of a TV person as I don't really like it, but I found channel 83 on Freeview TV which is NOW The 80s, so some nights I just have it on in the background, lots of crap but also some good old ones 👍

  • psnow85
    Peter Snow (@psnow85) reported from Arkley, England

    @Samantha_J_Rea Hmm not to sure about freeview but definitely freesat it’s been taken off for over a year. Probably the same though. Sucks big time. Anyway. Hope you are well.

  • Putneyman
    Dave M (@Putneyman) reported from London, England

    Only reason I mentioned that song (Tarzan Boy) is because I've been watching a lot on NOW 80s on Freeview channel 83. I didn't realise that apart from some good songs, how much crap there was as well in the 80s 😂

  • 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

    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.

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

    @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.

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

    @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.

    @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

    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.

  • SummerCrush10
    Sam Norris (@SummerCrush10) reported

    @KeepUpWithKFabe In the UK you can pay to watch The AEW PPV's on the night or wait an extra until it goes onto the FREE Channel ITV (which you don't have to pay to watch on Freeview or Sky) but you have to pay to watch it if using their ITV Hub catch up service.

  • lee_alley

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

    That's TV (@ThatsTVOfficial) reported

    @rockgod1970 @FreeviewTV If you can’t receive us where you live or you don’t have a Freeview HD TV then you will still normally be able to receive us via the Vision TV portal on Freeview channel 264 (internet-connected TV required) Maybe @FreeviewAdvice can help?

  • 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.

  • tashatam14
    tashatam (@tashatam14) reported

    @benonwine Get plenty of practice here in rural Devon, where the power and internet go off quite regularly, and many of us have no mobile signal at all (or mains sewage, decent water pressure, gas, public transport, road repairs, freeview signal - you name it, we don't have it)

  • Edinburgh59
    Alex (@Edinburgh59) reported

    @ArgosHelpers hi I wanted to order a 24 inch Bush television Freeview dvd combi but it won't let it be delivered to me fast track why and you've just lost a £139 customer

  • cmfitzg
    cmfitzg (@cmfitzg) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice We have been struggling for many Freeview channels for 2 or 3 weeks now. Postcode is WR2 4PF. When will we get a proper signal again ?

    @InJDWeStan Don't have anything. Except 6mths free disney+as changed my o2 contract & lowered cost. Only ever get prime when they email for free or 99p a week offer. With not working for past year and half, got be careful. Got freeview otherwise

    @LUFC_josh Yep, a couple of ITV channels down here (via Freeview from the Wenvoe transmitter near Cardiff)
