  • dave_maydew Dave Maydew MW0DCM (@dave_maydew) reported from Tonyrefail, Wales

    @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

  • 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

  • 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

  • MichaelLeeLewi4 Michael Lee Lewis (@MichaelLeeLewi4) reported from Aberdare, Wales

    @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

  • 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

  • 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)

  • 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.

  • oitappin Dan Tappin (@oitappin) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @DooHopper Pick will be an interesting case, no hd an awful picture on Freeview, good slot number but not much heft from Sky to push it.

    Ho! Ho! Ho! Just heard that the GREAT! Movies Christmas channel is returning to Freeview beginning September 8 - because it's never too early to celebrate Xmas, right? Time to get the decos down from the loft!

  • MightyMalicos MightyMalicos (@MightyMalicos) reported

    @happysolderer @BBCNews Why didn’t you answer my question? Both freesat boxes and satellite dish installations are expensive. Also Freeview and Freesat boxes have incredibly low power cost. Its around £17 over the course of a year. What you said came across as a sly dig at the poor. But do carry on

  • storey966 Tynmar (@storey966) reported

    @Bert1897 @J0hn8ev @MikeKeegan_DM ******* you're stupid. If they stop the TV licence, how do you think they'll fund the BBC & the freeview platform? We'll just start paying for it through taxation.

  • dappernorman Norman aka Dapper Rapper (@dappernorman) reported

    @TheSimonEvans What's interesting though is that Benny Hill was hounded out of town by us folk who thought ourselves 'right on' back then. 30 years later he's back on Freeview and - guess what - turns out some of it is awful a lot of it is surprisingly funny and creative.

  • SimonOxley9 Simon Oxley (@SimonOxley9) reported

    Seems like an interesting time to return to @LutonTown commentary duty at Swansea on Saturday. First visit to Liberty Stadium - never went to the Vetch either. Digital radio and Freeview 720 @BBCSport3CR

  • pjwilding Paul Wilding ♿️🏳️‍🌈 (@pjwilding) reported

    @Ofcom Already done it. Cancelled Virgin, Cable TV. Now just have Freeview. Cancelled Netflix. I would prefer to cancel the BBC and keep Netflix but that’s not an option, if I want to watch live Ch4. Time to rethink the TV license!

  • DawsePaws dawse (@DawsePaws) reported

    12 years on I'm pretty stoked to complete my Breaking Bad universe trilogy viewing tonight with the Better Call Saul finale. Blows my mind to think how long it's all been. I still remember catching the first promo on Freeview 5USA and saying "well that looks fun" to Mrs D.

  • GaryYoung_RPO Gary Young (@GaryYoung_RPO) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @WilliamPoel Freeview blackout PO18 8JZ also...

  • FranklinsSE22 Franklins (@FranklinsSE22) reported

    @MJowen174 Miserable *** You can get some pretty good indoor ones,I’ve got a signal booster and can can all the Freeview,no problem

  • 2_Wheeled_Wolf @2_Wheeled_Wolf 🇪🇺 (@2_Wheeled_Wolf) reported

    @drewsnx oh look its another pile of **** spouted out on the bigoted TV channel. The channel that's been deleted from every freeview box & TV.
