    @kieranjameen Kieran cancel it, my sister did with hers and hasn't missed it, you can buy internet freeview boxes now and you can download all the apps onto them, no monthly payments then, just for what you choose to, much cheaper

  • jonnyhern Jonathan (@jonnyhern) reported from Pontypool, Wales

    @Thomoli @PhilipsCare_UK I’ve been waiting 8 weeks for same issue not worked for me since I bought my TV. I dont have an aeriel tho just satellite cable connected & internet but no catch up aps work or freeview

  • KAK_Tweets Krys Cross! Cha Cha Real Smooth (@KAK_Tweets) reported from Treorchy, Wales

    @flickeringflxme I’ve never seen that one myself but somehow my granddad ended up buying it for himself which was made weirder by the fact he only had freeview so didn’t even have Disney Channel. He loved it though

  • MeurigRogers Morgan Barber-Rogers #FBPE melt and centrist dad (@MeurigRogers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

    @FreeviewAdvice @arqiva More disappointed, but I suppose I've got to accept it, after totally cutting the cord. I do have a tech question though. I'm using the Plex Media Server for Freeview, but the supplied EPG by Gracenote is terrible, is there a XML file of the one you use on the Android app

  • IanCleverly06 Ian Cleverly (@IanCleverly06) reported from Trethomas, Wales

    Just an FYI @DMAX_UK but you've just showed Series 3 Ep10 of #Archer, when the Freeview EPG (and your website) has you showing the correct in order Ep 9. It has the same down for the Sat midnight showing (ie Ep 10 is listed in you'll show Ep 9)

  • GeorgeBaldwin14 George Baldwin (@GeorgeBaldwin14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

  • TomDavi8165081 Tom1871 (@TomDavi8165081) reported

    Is anyone else having problems recording off of freeview? Things keep failing from the HD channels such as BBC One & ITV. I don't record off the HD channels, just the normal ones. I don't know why it keeps doing this. I retuned my freeview box to see if that helps.

  • BlueArmBar Blue (@BlueArmBar) reported

    @datnofact yeah i mean clearly the british media is doing this ****. its literally the only thing on the freeview channels main channels. bloody who gives a toss.

  • TraillCarolyn Carolyn Traill (@TraillCarolyn) reported

    Help!! @LTA @DavisCup How can I watch live the matches starting today in Glasgow? (Either on freeview TV or by free livestream)

  • themikeandrew Mike Andrew (@themikeandrew) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice might be a stupid question but how do I know if I can get Freeview on my TV? I have a Sony 2021 Google tv. Does it require an Aerial or scan via internet? Doesn't seem to be an app available. 🤦🏻🤔 I have sky but no Aerial to connect.

  • Gerrysmart99 Gerry (@Gerrysmart99) reported

    @Margare62511181 Apart from a few webmail issues Eir is the way to go. SKY treated me like a nuisance caller instead of a valued customer.Maybe things have changed over the last ten years & it no longer sends legally sounding threatening letters even tho it was its own fault. Advise: Freeview😟

    @4Viewers Thank you for replying, unfortunately whilst your link works, when I try to watch via the All4 app on my BT freeview player, the only Chateau DIY listed on there is the last series from 2021. I've even tried searching for it via "last 7 days" and it's not even listed there. Help!

  • markrprior Mark Prior (@markrprior) reported

    @mativity @rfgwyther No sign of either ITT on the Freeview schedule for any of 9's channels. @sophoife said it is possible to add the StanSport trial to a Stan trial though. Doesn't help if you don't have the capability to watch Stan though.

    @mac123_m You too poor to afford anything but Freeview? Too thick to read a book? You poor sod 🥴
