  • 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

  • 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

  • cycleoptic cycleoptic💙💚 (@cycleoptic) reported from Islington, England

    @jock_savage @ruskin147 This licence lets you use and install receiving equipment at the licensed place. watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat) watch live on streaming services (e.g. ITVX, All 4, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Now, Sky Go)

  • 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?

  • IanDavidRoss1 @thebadissuecollective (@IanDavidRoss1) reported from Lambeth, England

    Freeview tv is crap again tonight ,apart from french war drama on BBC2 - The Guardians(2017) I missed the first 30min ,so will watch from the start at first opportunity,Going to check Netflix.

  • M0YMJ Paul Coppin (@M0YMJ) reported from Worcester Park, England

    Freeview in Kent down at present. Anyone else have the same problem

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

    @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?

  • 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

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

Freeview Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MrRew9 MrRew (@MrRew9) reported

    @piersmorgan It took about 10 minutes to scroll down the channel list on freeview to find a manic loop enthusing over a lookalike GBNews. Don’t think I’ll be doing that again when Coronation Street is on the 📺.

  • _LoneWolf_ Paul (@_LoneWolf_) reported

    @SkyUK Looking at your deals, new customer deals, I need some information that I can't find online. Where can I find out monthly costs after initial 18 months? I found broadband after 18 months (£35.50 for what I picked) but not monthly TV costs - basic channels, freeview.

  • Lois68 Lola (@Lois68) reported

    @piersmorgan @PiersUncensored I don't have 237 on my Freeview. I'm not tech savvy. Help me

  • WayneDLawrence1 Wayne Lawrence (@WayneDLawrence1) reported

    I've just retuned my Freeview. I have 112 channels. That'll be @TalkingPicsTV and 111 crap ones then.

  • skipaiotter Skipai Otter (@skipaiotter) reported

    @Evi_SnowMew I learned this back in the early 90s when I moved from analogue mobile to digital network and found places I could make calls within college were suddenly not able to at all. Digital isn't always that great. We have an tv aerial that can't even get digital freeview.

  • mansh21 Mandy S (@mansh21) reported

    @kieronmirch @TheNewsDesk It really doesn’t look or sound amazing on freeview. I’m not sure I can watch if the quality stays like this, I’m used to seeing tv in HD not blurry with awful sound

  • sheene1976 Dave Williams (@sheene1976) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam It was the sky box. The tv was on freeview ok then pressed the home button to turn the box on and the message came up saying my set didn't support a specific picture format but i hadn't changed any pucture settings on the sky q box the previous day.

  • charltondoris Angela 🇺🇦 (@charltondoris) reported

    @TroubleDads @virginmedia Completely agree, i felt it was so unfair. What made it worse was that about 4mth after moving in, VM was supplied to the area! They would have known this too. I take great delight in putting as many off of VM as i can, awful company. Happily now have giffgaff and freeview 👍

  • WinterHopeUK alan turner (@WinterHopeUK) reported

    @ShaunKehoe @SkyHelpTeam It probably would but think this is big let down with sky glass , the channels that’s missing is bad , I am kicking sky tv in to touch getting a freeview box better and cheaper until sky add more channels to it

  • DavidTippunmon David Richardson (@DavidTippunmon) reported

    @piersmorgan Nice to see you back on the box - and unfettered this time, but PLEASE could you get something done about the very poor quality of the Freeview channel? Picture quality very poor I'm afraid.
