    @BigJetTVLIVE I named 3 airlines on the above. Why say 10mins if you knew it wouldn’t be. You still don’t get the hang of it. Most of the times when I watch the freeview there are so many errors in it it’s unreal. If you didn’t have enough time then that’s bad planning on your side

    @pauljonesking Hi, I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with the Freeview Play service. So we can look into this for you, can you please DM us your postcode and house name or number? Thanks, Dylan

  • AnneCardwell4 Anne Cardwell (@AnneCardwell4) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice Thank you for your response. I've been having problems with Freeview for months, so I'm not impressed with the service, and so many repeats, that we've already paid for. Regards Anne.

  • angefitzpatrick Ange Fitzpatrick 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@angefitzpatrick) reported

    @space_librarian @libmichelle We never went above BBC Four on Freeview, unless it’s a hop to Cbeeies - thank god that worked. Our home-made internet was actually better than the BT provider, but our booster aerials were in the church spire and the pub… which made Teams calls weird in lockdown

  • KiwiBuschman Phillip Busch (@KiwiBuschman) reported

    @TVNZ morning. What's up with your Freeview signal for tv1, tv2 and Duke channels? No signal? But all good coming through sky?

  • oddurbauer Oddur Gunnarsson Bauer (@oddurbauer) reported

    @GoonerWaffle @LauraKirk12 Just a quick pointer from an Icelandic native, you can get the Freeview channels here if you get your internet service through a company called Kapalvæðing.

  • AuntieDrJo GarethM (@AuntieDrJo) reported

    Are the shows on ITVX going to end up on Freeview eventually? Mostly the Plebs special and Nolly. Don't really get why they're exclusive to that platform when it's a free service. (Have an old telly, it works for getting channels but the apps on there don't work)

  • gurncrop gurncrop (@gurncrop) reported

    @AboutEG Might be worth following @DowndetectorUK. You will get alerts for things you don't care about, but it was a great early warning for today's Twitter problems, and that recent Freeview outage - answers the "is it just me?" question.

  • GreatNumber7s 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿NineteenSixtySimon🇮🇪 (@GreatNumber7s) reported

    Replay of yesterday's game on Viaplay Freeview just now. Aaron Moy, what a game he had. Never put a foot wrong 👏👏👏
