  • 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

  • daguvernor tommy harper (@daguvernor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia once again trying to contact virgin media is a no go a proper waste of time contract has run out trying to cancel they have put the money up to £60 a month for basically 2 freeview boxes I have cancelled my direct debit which is due on the 7 april what a scam😡

  • Marmalord Marmalord (the) (@Marmalord) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @itvhub Humax FVP-4000T 1TB Freeview Set Top Box Recorder, and having to sign in more or less every time is making us all dislike Martin Freeman

  • JensFallesen Jens Fallesen (@JensFallesen) reported from Hounslow, England

    @leksi_p Correct. If you do not have Freeview, Sky or Virgin (or any other cable service), you should not need to pay if you never watch it.

  • budgie Lee 'Budgie' Barnett (@budgie) reported from Richmond, England

    @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.

  • Scare158Steve Scarebear (@Scare158Steve) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @bt_uk Thanks for the help. I spoke to freeview, tried a few things which didn't work but i contacted your TV help and after doing a few basic things somehow it appears to be working now! Very Strange. Tks

  • 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.

  • fishinthedark1 fishinthedark (@fishinthedark1) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @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.

  • nessymon Nessy 😷 (@nessymon) reported from London, England

    @MarketaDee @CNN Freeview has never worked for us for some reason.. will try again. Thanks.

  • llsorts Keryn (@llsorts) reported

    @Bridgetpee It will depend on your tv. Your tv might have Freeview installed. Find or download the tv manual for help. You might need to plug the aerial cable straight into the back of the tv and then tune the channels. Smart TVs are different again. Sing out if you need more help

  • lennymr2 lennymr2 (@lennymr2) reported

    @emerald88604982 @ladydebbie6 @KensingtonRoyal I would never pay for tv. Freeview has loads and getting better every day. Most things on sky Netflix prime etc end up on Freeview anyway.

  • Bella_Ciao_Free Bella Ciao (@Bella_Ciao_Free) reported

    @skytv @TalkTV Why is the picture and sound glitchy. The picture quality is great but it's just not playing correctly. Note... Rest of my channels are fine even CNN which in bad weather disappears 1st. Also freeview is working fine... Thank you.

  • StefanKorn59 Stefan Korn (@StefanKorn59) reported

    @Lauren1994_27 Good. It is not too bad, really. We always find something to watch. Unlike the Freeview TV.

  • sodslawyer sod's lawyer (@sodslawyer) reported

    @Neverfadingwood @Thebubblegunman Me, not since around 1997 (a black and white portable). I suppose when I say I've never used Freeview that's not strictly true as I've seen it on other people's tv, but really don't have any sense of what is or isn't available on it.

  • FY5 Lee TJ (@FY5) reported

    Masterclass in customer service from @virginmedia 34 mins on the phone with Customer Services to downgrade part our package, ended up cancelling the lot. Oh hum back to Freeview and ADSL with a 5g backup.

  • Shirleimowgli Carol Phillips (@Shirleimowgli) reported

    @PunchyPiks @TalkingPicsTV I agree - it is a wonderful service but you can get it on Freeview for nothing.

  • Haggis91569570 Northern Haggis🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Haggis91569570) reported

    @FreeviewTV Why is the freeview signal reception so terrible in north east Scotland and can we get a discount on the license fee for having to put up with your abysmal service.

  • altybob robert sharples (@altybob) reported
